A Very Froggy Shower

Another baby is on the way! My good, college girlfriend Katie and her husband Josh are expecting their first baby towards the end of November. I cannot wait to meet him or her and also meet Layla's new playmate!!

Stephanie, Amanda, Michelle and I celebrated the baby-to-be by throwing a shower last Sunday.

Since Stephanie loves a theme as much as me, we took the frog theme of the nursery and sort of ran with it :-)

Below are the adorable frog cupcakes Steph made and the frog diaper cake Amanda, Steph and I made the week before the shower.

We had frog and green themed food, favors (chocolate frogs!) and even a frog pool to hold the gifts. Yes, this is the same pool Layla is scared of but it is not Layla's actual pool :-) I just so happened to have an extra one. I hope Katie's baby is not afraid of it too!!

We did have a few decorations, but we mostly decorated Katie's house with baby buckets like the one below. All baskets had a different theme (feeding, toddler eating, health/safety, etc).

Everyone also decorated a onesie for the baby at the shower (it doesn't look like it, but we had varying sizes of the onesies so Katie didn't have 15 newborn ones!). So fun to do and the guests got really creative! The one I made of course had a ladybug on it :-)



The shower was at Katie's house and it was so nice to have it there because we all got to see the nursery! It was so cute.

And I'll leave you with a picture of Miss Layla and her cheesy smile. She was a bit of a wild one at the shower...but lucky for us Ryan was on-call nearby and the good daddy came and picked up little Layla about halfway through the shower :-)
