Showered with BABY love

 
This past weekend, the husband and I traveled home for a fun weekend with family and friends to shower Miss Aubrey with some sweet baby love. What an amazing job our families did putting together this sweet shower. The theme was based on our nursery colors with little bird, chevron, and special homemade touches. The food was delicious and incorporated many of my personal cravings including fruit, queso, cheese cubes, and cupcakes. YUM!  
  

I loved all the sweet personal homemade touches from my mom's homemade baby diaper cake and baby attendant's gifts with pretty in pink nail polish. The wooden owl décor pieces were such a sweet touch and hand crafted by my sister-in-law's boyfriend's grandfather.  


 

The sugar cookies were not only adorable but super delicious. My sister-in-law's boyfriend's step mother has a dessert company where she makes yummy desserts. The baby bootie candy dishes were such a cute creation made by my aunt.  
 
After we munched on some shower goodies, it was time for the games to begin. We began with the clothespin game where you are unable to mention the word "B-A-B-Y." 

 
Aunt Sally won!
 
We also played the string game... guess how big my belly is. I had three ladies that were very close but my mom's good friend and co-worker, Carol Ann, was right on track. Happy 31 weeks to my little girl and ever growing belly! 
 
The dirty diaper game led to a lot of silly faces and questionable chocolate leftovers. It is always hilarious;)
 
 
Here is a super special picture from the shower with my Mama  and soon to be Oma. I am so truly thankful for the lessons learned and the special bond I have with her. I hope she truly knows how thankful I am for her and all she has done:) I know she and Miss Aubrey will have such a special relationship and know she is already so loved!
 
 
All I can say is that this shower was a true blessing. I am so thankful for the sweet gifts for our baby girl and again know that she is already so loved:) Thank you family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and to all those who made this shower so special.

I am so thankful for the love of my sweet sisters and their love for Miss Aubrey Rose. These may be some of my favorite pictures of all times:)
