Michigan Family Baby Shower!

My wonderful and creative party planners and my sister's in law...
Cindy and Amy!

The girls were so thoughtful and must know me so well....cheesecake (cupcake style)...

...and cookie cake!

....and then there was the pumpkin, bunny-bear cookie cake.

Cindy arrived to pick up a "cute, gender neutral, pastel" cookie cake but wasn't sure what to say when she was handed this brightly colored one. Don't worry, team Worst got this one for free and the much cuter ducky cake pictured above instead. Plus we got to eat TWO cookie cakes:)

Tasty bubble bath punch

Beautiful flowers and Amy's creative party favors- baby jars decorated and filled with baby candies.

The party! Grandma VA, Aunt Kathy, Cuz Maria, Marti, Becky, Holly, Sue, Cindy, Rose, Cuz Alison, and Amy...Aunt Traci was taking the picture:)

Game 1: How quickly can Amanda change a dirty diaper and clothe baby in a button up sleeper?

Answer: 1 min 50 sec

Thanks for the confidence Lor...and the 8 minutes just in case Aunt Christie!

I was seriously nervous...somehow my ability to do this would be a future predictor of my parenting skills.

Thankfully baby (or scary toddler doll from the 80's) was cooperative:)


Game 2: Draw your best baby...on a paper plate...and on your head. I don't know who comes up with these games, but gents you are missing out!

I love how serious Alison's face is...however, it was Maria (in white) that won with her sketch of chubby baby "Ga Ga".

Grandma VA made us this sweet cross stitch blanket! I just love homemade gifts from those you love and who love you right back:)

The cousins (VA side): Alison, Cindy, Maria, Me, Amy

Worst...party of three.
