A Baby Shower for Laura

Last weekend, we threw a baby shower for Laura, Eric's sister. She's having a little girl (Madelynn Rose...isn't that the cutest name?) and is due November 2nd. Laura's been craving guacamole during her pregnancy, so naturally Mexican food was served. It was absolutely wonderful for me because my pregnancy has been the pregnancy for tacos el carbon, pastries and peanut butter. Seriously. If I could eat them everyday I would be so happy! Needless to say, the taco bar and cupcakes really made my day.

Laura got a ton of great baby loot and it was so much fun to see everyone who came.

Diaper cake! This is was so much fun to make.

The decorated tables Brandt looking inside to see what was going on. The boys were banished outside for awhile so they wouldn't get into everything before the shower.

It was pretty chilly that day. Don't the boys look so cute in their puffy vests?

Yummm...chips and salsa!


The spiciest guacamole I've ever had in my life! But it was goooood!


I must have started eating after I took that last picture, because I didn't get any of the tacos or cupcakes!

I had a few little girls helping me out while I wrote down the gifts for Laura's thank-you's.

Uncle Drew took this pic of Me, Laura and Aunt Mardy. She was comparing her belly to ours. It was so funny!

Me and Laura with our little girls. It is so exciting to have a fellow preggo and even more so because we're both having girls. Eric's parents say it's like having twins in the family again because we are so close together.

We can't wait to meet lil' Madelynn Rose.

i'm so jealous you have someone to be pregnant with! i didn't last time around, and this time, when announcing it to friends, i was so hopeful *someone* would say "me too!"... but no. i'm also jealous of the guacamole. :)
