.Baby Shower.







Saturday, March 28, 2009 was my baby shower and I must say that it was a great turn out. You see, I am a complete control freak and like things a certain way, which is normally my way or no way. I made a 5 page outline of how I wanted my baby shower to go. This included what food I wanted and from where, the games we would play and of course decorations. I gave this to my amazing best friend Stephanie who did a fabulous job translating my ideas into the real thing, with the help of my mom and sister and Quinn's mom.

First of all, I must be a little cocky and say that my invitations were the cutest thing this side of the Mississippi. I had the idea that I wanted to make them look like tickets to a UNC Basketball game since I was having my shower during March Madness. Quinn being the talented artist that he is took my idea and created an adorable invitation for me!

Thankfully, UNC did win on Friday night or else Saturday's party would have sucked just a little bit since all of my decorations were Carolina blue and white. Quinn's mom got me an adorable basketball themed diaper cake and of course the food was to die for.....YUMMMM! :)
After food and games it was the best time of all, present time!!!! Thanks to mine and Quinn's amazing families and friends we got everything we could have asked for and more! Quinn's aunt gave us Alex's changing table and a stuffed animal that was hers as well, which coincidentally is a monkey which matches the whole nursery theme. I can't wait till he gets old enough and we can explain the importance of his monkey stuffed animal to him.

So I guess now all there is left to do is wait around for lil' dude to make his debut.
