The first shower was when I was 27 weeks pregnant and it was a couples baby shower hosted by Holly and Amy (Scott's mom and sister) (actually pretty much the same crowd as our Couples Wedding Shower!) We had a great time! The food was amazing, the flowers were fabulous and gifts were very generous!
The next week was a traditional shower hosted by Sara Shower (I was 28 weeks pregnant). She did an absolutely amazing job; really channeling her inner Martha Stewart! She had fantastic food with a sherbert punch (which I am pretty sure I drank most of it!)
We played shower games (my favorite!), one being "Price is Right", which my total guess was around $70 but the actual was around $35. So it will be a nice surprise how much less my first Target trip will be than expected!
The decorations were so cute! Included were sparkly pink "CSJ" (baby's initials) hanging in the large picture window and a beautifully set table!
The cupcakes were to die for! Brought by my friend Laurie - one was a lime with blackberry frosting and the other was a Bailey's Chocolate cupcake.
We received so many gifts. We are truly blessed with so many generous friends and family! Between our two showers, we have just about everything we need and are ready for Charlotte to join us! (Well, when she is done baking!)
