1st Baby Shower

This past Saturday we had our first baby shower.  My friend, Lexsea (who I have known since we were about 3), and her mom, Cheryl, hosted a shower in our hometown.  They planned a very memorable and enjoyable afternoon.  The guests showed up around 2 and were served delicious food--ice cream sundaes (Lex made sure to have both cookie toppings and mint chip ice cream!), some salsa/cream cheese tortilla roll ups, nuts, fresh fruit in an adorable sculpture (see pic below), and pink lemonade.  The table centerpieces were buckets of water with tutus surrounding them.  These will be great for dress up and pictures later on!  Lexsea then instructed everyone that in place of typical shower games, there would be an arts and crafts session in which everyone could make a headband for Baby Warren.  We got some pretty cute ones!  It was so nice to see everyone!!!  There were local family and friends as well as others who traveled quite the distance to attend.  I very much appreciated everyone taking the time to attend the shower! It was such a wonderful afternoon!

Everyone hard at work

Hudson served as our model when needed.  Cheryl gave this super hero outfit to Baby Warren. TJ was pumped about this!  Hudson has a matching outfit, too.

 Thank you Cheryl, Lexsea and Hudson!  You did an awesome job with the shower and I am so grateful for the time and effort you put into making the afternoon so special!
