Baby Shower...

Gorgeous cupcakes, compliments of SuLee!

As I've said before, I have some of the greatest girlfriends in the world.  They love me, encourage me, pray for me, are honest, and are a ton of fun!  They threw me another baby shower.  We had lots of fun, ate yummy desserts, and had a memorable baby shower as a HUGE wind storm brewed outside. 

So, you might be wondering, what in the world do you possibly need when you are having your fourth child???  That is a valid question.  The truth is, I got rid of most of my boy stuff awhile ago...remember this little guy was a pretty big surprise for us.  I am borrowing a lot (I love me some hand-me-downs) and I'm filling in where needed.   But, I promise that when you hear what I got for my baby shower...it will make you reconsider having another baby and inviting MY friends to your shower.

There were lots of precious, adorable, teeny-weeny, sweet, yummy baby boy stuff...blankets, bottles, jammies, outfits, new born diapers, galore!  Along with that, here's a few other things I got:

• A new handbag-camera bag with an adorable ruffle strap for my new camera...handmade -compliments of the now-crafty Rachel
• A bottle of red wine and a chocolate truffle
• An Archipelago candle
• A gift certificate for a pedicure at my favorite pedi spot
• A brand new coffee pot

Wait...what?  A new coffee pot?   Okay, so I have to say a little more about the coffee pot...  Two of my friends went together and bought us a new coffee pot.  They've been to my house countless times and watched us go through (and experienced first hand) our convoluted coffee making routine that works around our semi-broken-still-kinda-works coffee maker.  They said enough is enough...come January, we'll have four children, 6 and under, in our house, and we will need a full functioning coffee pot.  Now, do they know me, or what?!?!

So along with blessing our new little baby, my friends are also working hard to make sure that he has a semi-sane, relaxed mommy!

See, I told you, you want to get pregnant and invite my friends to your shower, don't you?
