Its A Jungle Out There: Showering Baby T

Sunday my mom, sisters, and sister-in-law spoiled me rotten by throwing us a jungle themed baby shower. It was scorching outside so they opted to have the gathering inside. Such a smart move as everyone gathered around for food, fun, and family.

Included with the invitation was a small card for new mother advice. After grabbing sandwiches, fruits, and veggies, we went around the room to hear all of the thoughts on motherhood. I loved hearing what everyone had to say from the oldest generations to the newest mommies. It provided a few good laughs as well as looks of horror!

During desserts of cake pops, cookies, and cakes, Baby T was showered with all sorts of gifts for him/her. From homemade blankets to bouncy seats to hooded bath towels to baby's first chair, one by one our family and friends helped add something special to our child's life.

Like all things, the day went by too fast but I truly enjoyed being around such amazing people who have built a wonderful support system for Ryan, Baby T, and I. Words cannot express the gratitude that we feel as a family.

And now, for the pictures...
