My sweet friend Mal gave me a baby shower yesterday, she went all out on food and decorations, it was adorable and fun and we had a great time just chatting as friends.
Ashley, me, Tonja, Rebecca, and Malarie with baby Harlee
Ava with Josie (Ashleys daughter) in Siena's room. Siena had gone to her cousins with her dad, mom decided she could only have one daughter there and be the hostess. Can't say I blame her.
The cute food table! We didn't get a photo until after we'd started eating but the frames had what each item was (and it was all delicious). There was veggies and dip, mini fruit pizzas sugar cookies with cream cheese frosting and diced strawberries, kiwi's and blueberries, then there was 7 layer bean dip individual cups with chips and an adorable cupcake stand with cupcakes in a jar with blue and green frosting.
Mal made this cute garland and subway art for the shower. The fabric used is actually the fabric that I am doing his "corner" in.
The subway art is a list of rock bands including two of his dads favorites: RUSH and Dream Theater.
Mal also made this ADORABLE bunting for me (again the fabric his "corner" is being done in), the ends are burp cloths, then there is a crinkle tag toy, bib and a onesie with a guitar appliqued on the front. LOVE IT! She also gave me another burp cloth, and a blanket and sleeper with guitar fabric as well.
Tissue paper pom poms out of the colors
Opening presents! Ava was my little helper, she was so excited and made me tell everyone how excited she was to have a little brother.
Funny side note, that morning as I was getting ready I told her I was going to go get in the shower and she asked why because I was going to be showering at Malaries house. I LOVE it.

Our fun goodies! My friend Ashley gave us one of those soft blanket stuffed animals that is a monkey. Totally fun because Trena gave one of those to Ava at the hospital when she was born too.
Me and my girls, I love this picture. Trena was my great photographer for the day, so she wasn't in any of the other photos.
I also forgot to mention Brent dropped by to check out all the fun, but I hadn't gotten the camera out yet. But I still want to remember how much it meant to me that he stopped by after his work meeting.

Crazy Ava, when we arrived at the shower she had a headband in her hair, a jean skirt on over her leggings and a purple, pink and white striped sweater. You can obviously tell how comfortable she is at Mal's house.
Another funny side note: we haven't officially picked out a name, but the one we are leaning towards is not Ava's first choice. So the other day I asked Ava what she wanted to name her baby brother. Ava looked at me and said well, Harlee is a girls name so I think we should name him Harlot!!! So there you have it folks According to the three year old our baby should be Harlot North!
