Oliver's Baby Shower

You guys..... it has been a whirlwind getting everything ready and adjusting being back at work. Oliver will be here in 3 more months... can you believe it???

I'm super excited to share his shower with you that we had this past weekend. Our friends who are due in December came down and so we knew we had to do our showers all together!

The amazingly talented Dionne helped with the decorations while my mom and mother-in-law prepped the delicious food. It was a fantastic weekend spent with good friends, family and food!


And what shower isn't complete without a Stroller Derby? My friends were great sports about this!

Annnnnd to top it all off, this is the amazing gift Dionne made us!
I can't wait to hang it in his room!

My friend Julie is also having this fantastic Doctor Who mobile made for us!

But being surrounded with all my favorite people was definitely the best part!

Wow awesome shower, particularly the derby! That is brilliant! Ha ha! Hope you've had fun getting everything ready sweet pea! Terribly excited for you!

p.s hot mama purchase - get a swaddle pod or a woombie type thing if you have a restless baby... it'll help them sleep better. Swaddling isn't for everyone - mine liked to have arms out... but gave in, in the end!

Not long now, can't believe my wee one is almost 5 months!

Looking fabulous darling too!
