After eating, we played a memory game. I forgot to get a picture of the whole game, but you can see it in the background behind Rachel(one of the hostesses of the party). The pictures included things like umbilical cord, big belly, epidural, 9 months, crying baby, etc. Each thing had a corresponding candy. It was pretty funny how some of the candies matched up with the pictures(like the picture for "Nurses" came with the candy "Lifesavers" when matched).
After the game, we cut the cake (the date says May 31st, but we are now officially scheduled for a c-section on June 1st- the actual due date being June 6).
The table was decorated very cute with lots of blue and brown. I should have gotten the banner in the picture too, but anyone that visits us after baby gets here will be able to see it. The cake was delicious and I am still enjoying the leftovers.
Here are the two hostesses together. Danny's Mom, Shari, was the other one. They did a great job and I can't thank them enough for all the time and effort they put into it.Here are the guests. Most of them came from my neighborhood/ward. My sister in law, Pam, also showed up which was a nice surprise.
More guests and the gifts. It was so fun to open up all of those cute little boy clothes. I was very happy with everything that I got.
Alyssa loved helping out with the shower. She helped prepare the food, decorate, set up the game, hand out the candy during the game, and handed me all of the presents. Both girls are so excited for the new baby brother. Ashley wasn't at the shower because she had a Kindergarten Assessment that morning, so she got to spend time with Daddy and Grandpa.
We are so excited for the baby to get here. I am getting more and more uncomfortable and don't know how I'm going to make it another month, but I guess I don't have much of a choice in the matter.
