Valentine Shower
We got to celebrate my SIL pregnancy this weekend. It was fun having a Valentines Day Baby Shower! It was a sweet time and I am so thankful that she made the long drive so we could celebrate with her. It was also fun to have an excuse to make some extra Valentines Day goodies as well!
Here is the spread
and then you of course need to see a close up of the brownies and cupcakes!!!
I had a lot of fun making baby gifts as well. It was a tough decision of what to make with so many cute things out there but I did finally decide on the Amy Butler Little Stitches Kimono PJ’s
and this new little one has a daddy that loves fishing and hunting so while mommy had snuggly pj’s for her little one daddy got a hunting outfit for his little boy!
I was really excited about the hat. I actually stumbled across a tutorial which I resized to fit a baby. I am really happy with the way that it turned out (the picture does not do it justice).
Last but not least I finished out the gift with a little blanket (can you believe that fabric is from Joanns) and burp cloths (one for mom and one for dad).
It was a really sweet morning and a fun time of celebration!
It was such a wonderful shower!! What a blessing!
Thank you for pouring out so much love on Becca, Matt and Asa!

Oh, I’m soo hungry now! That spread is awesome
I’m curious what you think about AB’s book – I picked it up yesterday at JoAnns (had a %0% off coupon) but was worried that I wouldn’t make too much out of it since I’m out of the baby stage … is it still worth the purchase?
