Two of our very best friends are expecting a little one just a few weeks before Baby Brother is due. This past weekend I hosted a baby shower for Jenny. A funny side story about Jenny...of course we all know that Rory is obsessed with Cinderella. One day, I was explaining to her that Jenny is her Godmother. Rory thought about it for a couple seconds, made a funny face, and said to me, "Jenny's not magic!" LOL! Godmother does not equal fairy godmother, and Jenny does not have the ability to turn pumpkins into a carriage.
Anyway...here are some of the details from the shower. We all know how much I love hosting parties, and I had lots of fun with this.
I had this cute banner made from an etsy seller, who I'm too lazy to link right now, but I did mention her in a ten on tuesday post awhile back.
Everyone signed this book with a little message for the mommy and baby.
Name tags for the guests. One lucky person had a surprise "poopy" in their diaper, and they won a prize!
A diaper cake. I loved how this turned out!
I adored those orange gerbera daisies!
Oreo truffles disguised as cupcakes! YUM!
Jenny said one of her cravings were gummy worms, so those were given as favors. I figured they went well with the birdy theme!
It was a fun little party! Now I can't wait to snuggle that little baby when he or she is born!
ok megan, it is official, you need to start a complete new business~pictures, partys, favors, clothing, sewing, banners, cakes, cookies, goodies, baking in general, etc. you name it! oh wait you could just start a new and better martha! i am serious, you do an amazing job! LOVE IT!!

Megan, you are SO creative! WOW. You absolutely must start an Etsy business yourself! I'd snatch up all your birdie art and designs in a second (that's our "theme" for the nursery this time around)!

OH MY GOSH. So stinkin cute and sweet. I love it all!!!! Wow, I am seriously impressed, not only with your great stuff, but also with your ability to do all this while pregnant, raising a toddler, working and being a wife. And didn't you just get over being sick?
