Baby Showers

CJ and I were lucky enough to have three separate baby showers. We are both SO thankful for everyone that helped us prepare for the arrival of sweet Quinny. We got SO many useful things and haven't really had to buy much at all. That has been a huge help!


Our first shower was hosted by my Aunt Camille in Benton. She did an AWESOME job at getting her house ready and really out did herself. It was so great to see all my friends and family since everyone is at least three hours away. A few pics from this shower...


The table all decked out in green & pink before all the food was out.
The cake with sweet booties on it. They can be written on with all her birth information.
Some of my amazing friends and family.
Nana helping get my flowers on that my sweet Aunt got me. 
Love everyone in this picture SO much!! 
The pretty wreath Camille made.
Up close. There were also little house shoes below the initials. 

Our second shower was given at work. We're lucky enough to have awesome co-workers that also went all out with decorations and gifts! It was hosted by two of my best friends at work - Ali and Christin. I am SO thankful for these two girls and their generosity. A few pics from this shower...

Ali made an awesome diaper cake with several useful things as decorations! Christin made the punch and I'm positive I had at least 10 glasses. SO good!! :)
 The cake was SO good. I had been craving it for days at this point!!
We got SO many cute outfits. Almost the entire office fed my zebra obsession as well which completely made my day and had CJ laughing.
 I know he is looking so forward to the days when Mommy and Quinny can go shopping together. :)

Our third and final shower was hosted by CJ's awesome Aunts - Kim and Julie. It was mainly diapers, but we got tons of other things as well. We are set on diapers and wipes for quite some time thanks to this and we're SO thankful!! One of the funniest things happened at this shower. I have really missed beer throughout my pregnancy. I wasn't a big drinker, but I loved to have beer with dinner on the weekends. Kim knew this and surprised me with a non-alcoholic Coors at the shower. My best friend was there and had been missing beer, too so she even got one! :) A few pics....

Justin's girlfriend Rachel made this diaper cake. I love all the pink and greens! 
Kim made sure to have hilarious games for everyone. You had to guess the candy melted in the diaper and the baby food. I didn't try any, because I was afraid I would get sick. CJ's Dad ended up winning!  
I had multiple cravings throughout my pregnancy, but these pretzels are just about the best things ever! Julie made enough so I could take some home and I snacked on them for two weeks! :) 
 There were onesies hung everywhere and I loved it! There was just about ever color you could think of. 
My other really big craving was chickfila. I had it almost every single day for my entire pregnancy. Yes, I realize how ridiculous that is, but I LOVE chickfila. I even got chickfila  gift cards for Christmas, because everyone knew how much I was eating it. Kim was sweet enough to have this for lunch at her shower. :)

 There were also socks hanging on the walls. We're very thankful for these, because Quinn's feet stay cold almost all the time!
 And for everyone that has wanted a belly shot...here are a couple. I was SO comfortable in that chair. :)
