Our Baby Shower

7:30 PM

Happy Father's Day, everyone! Though J is a daddy-to-be (or a baba-to-be as we like to say), I know he'll be the best father in the world and I can't wait till our little guy is here. I can't believe that our baby shower was just a few weeks ago, time has been flying by these days. I wanted to share some pictures from the shower as I felt so loved and special that day!


J and my two best friends worked secretly for months to put together the baby shower of my dreams - I'm so grateful! My day started off with a prenatal massage (a gift from my wonderful mother-in-law) which was amaaaaazing - seriously, they even had a special prenatal massage bed where I got to lay on my belly (if you've ever been pregnant you'll know that this is a luxury since you can't sleep on your belly without feeling like you're squishing your baby and crushing your insides ;). After my massage I could've taken a 6-hour nap from how relaxed I was, but, alas, J wanted me to feel beautiful and had me scheduled to get my hair done - rough life, I know. By the time I arrived home, I was expecting to see the finished product of the baby shower I had been waiting for, but there were still things to be done before guests arrived! It was actually fun to be part of the pre-party decorating frenzy, including a helium tank without enough helium, balloons that wouldn't stick to the walls, and a sad attempt at filling metallic balloons with a bicycle pump. Oh the drama! Nevertheless we managed to get everything in order and the most wonderful baby shower started right on time :)
