B is for BABY and BLUE and BOY and BROTHER

i recently had my baby shower! it was so pretty and so simple and so perfect. i couldn't have asked for a more relaxed and more wonderful baby shower! the food was so good! my favorites of the party were the finger sandwiches shaped like baby bottles and onsies. yep. i know, amazing! i have my mother-in-law's wonderful talents to thank for that. as well as the beautiful cake and super cute ornament favors you see behind me in the above picture! she did all of that! oh! and she painted all the little cutesy boy stuff from the car shaped piggy bank to the cute little truck that might become the base of a lamp for the nursery. i'm so blessed! my mom was a wonderful host and she really outdid herself in color coordinating the Christmas tree to match the baby shower colors, and creating a matching "banner" out of blue/brown/cream onsies and wooden initials. she was so gracious to open her home and make it so beautiful for the shower. i loved being able to just sit back and sip on the homemade wassail, which was amazing by the way, and just watch everyone have a good time celebrating the joys of a new baby in a festive holiday fashion. i have to say, i loved having a baby shower amidst the holidays, it allowed for a whole new level of baby shower creativity.

yes, those are rattles made out of mini cupcakes! my mother-in-law is so talented! and isn't the truck super cute!?

baby Jacob will be here before we know it!!!
