The Best Laid Plans!

Welcome blogger friends.  Lets talk baby showers.

After months of looking for the perfect invitation, I found it.  Jan at FourHarp Design http://www.etsy.com/shop/fourharpdesigns

designed this wonderful shower invitation.  We got the inspiration from the mom to be's

choice of bedding.  I got almost all of the invitations out on July 12, 2010.

It took a long time to find a venue in my budget that would hold all our guests and be air conditioned! 

I bought enough solid white bibs and non toxic paint for everyone to decorate them with.

The shower favor was inspired by http://gordongossip.blogspot.com/

But then, on July 14, 2010  our Bella made an unexpected arrival.  She is the tiniest thing I have seen in my whole life.  And she is beautiful.  I have a cold so I had to wear a mask but I could still see that little beauty.  She is healthy and strong, just very tiny.  I saw those little fingers and toes and sat in sheer amazement.   The new mom is not up to a shower so we are doing something else. 
Welcome home our precious Bella, Aunt Nette and Uncle Doug are already thinking of ways to spoil you. Your beautiful Momma and dotting Daddy don't have a chance in this world.  There are too many people just waiting to spoil and cuddle you.

Thank you for visiting and sharing our wonderful news.
