Baby Fever Pt. 2...

Last week I flew to Baltimore for my bf Sarah's baby shower.  Her friend Sarah was throwing the shower and everything was so pretty and thoughtful.
Sarah, Sarah and her beautiful daughter Ella who is almost 1.

She had gorgeous centerpieces and decorations and amazing food and drinks!  Here are some photos I took...
Pretty decorations personalized with Sarah's name and some great sangria
The gorgeous centerpieces with hydrangeas and these cute letters spelling out the baby's name.  I loved this idea!
They had yummy desserts and choc. covered pretzel party favors.
Here is a picture I snapped of the parents to be before the guys left to do guy things ;)  Sarah is due August 22nd...is she not the cutest pregnant person ever?
Tyler and Sarah
I also got this great pic of Sarah, her sister Rachel, and her mom.  They all look so much alike!

She got some really cute gifts too that I thought I would share in case anyone is looking for fun baby shower ideas.  
Her sister got her these adorable monogrammed booties.

Tyler's mom got her this little cap which I thought was a neat idea.  It comes with a letter explaining that if you have a girl you keep this cap and take a little stitch out for her wedding day and it becomes a hankie for her "something old".  If it's a boy then you can give it to his bride.  Such a cute idea!

One of Tyler's aunts got the baby a set of different bibs for each month of the year.  It was such a cute theme idea and she had a bunch of really creative ones.  I snapped a pic of this "November" one...so funny!

Someone also got her a copy of the movie "Raising Helen". 
Another really cute idea that I didn't get a picture of was a gift for Tyler.  It had a book in it about how to be a father to a little girl and 2 soccer balls that were pink and sparkly with princesses all over them.  It was adorable!






We only played one baby game which (thankfully) was not sniffing things mashed up in diapers.  Sorry if that offends anyone.  Ha.  It was really cute though they played 12 or so songs that all had "baby" in the title and you had to write down the name of the song and the artist.  It was a really fun and painless game...I loved it!




It was a great shower...now I just can't wait to meet my new "niece" in a few more weeks!  Hmm I just realized that I probably used the word "cute" about 800 times in this post, but it was a baby shower so I'm giving myself a free pass.  :)
