Baby T's Travel Themed Baby Shower

At the beginning of August my sweet friends threw me a travel-themed baby shower for Baby T - could the theme be anymore appropriate?! Everything was decorated so cute and the food was delicious! 

Adorable Invite

Magan, Ashley & Christine hosted at Christine's house and everything was perfect!

We played a couple of games...the first one was a matching game...easy right? Wrong! You had to match the word for baby with the correct language. Some were obvious and some not so much! I did pretty well but didn't win this one. Next we played a fun game to guess Justin's answers to questions Magan had asked him (and recorded him on video). His facial expressions when the video was paused were priceless! Luckily I know my hubby pretty darn well and won this game! The last game was to guess who changed Everett's diaper faster - which Magan also video taped. Justin beat me on this one - dangit! If you want to see Justin's questions/answers and our speedy diaper changes...Watch Here!

We also polled everyone to see if they thought boy or girl - there were only 4 guesses for boy and the rest were girl! We will find out soon!

Everyone signed "Oh the Places You'll Go" and wrote fun notes for us on diapers for those late night changes - I'm sure these will give us some laughs in the middle of the night!

Gifts

Baby's first cell phone - uh oh!

Yummy favors made by Christine!

The shower was such a good time and I feel lucky to have such a great support system and friends/family around and cannot wait for everyone to meet Baby T!

Showering Baby T with Love...Tutus or Ties?!

What a better way to ring in the first day of my 3rd trimester than a baby shower with friends & family?! Diana, Lauren, Rachel, & Kristin were so sweet to throw Baby T and me a baby shower in Houston (at Diana's beautiful house) a few weeks ago. The food was delicious, the games were fun, and the decorations were adorable! 

The theme of the shower was Ties or Tutus? with owls galore!

Games, Guests & Gifts

We played guess how big Katie's belly is and whoever got the closest won...I guess and was way off - oops!

Rachel was the official measur-er

Sandie won!

 The next game was too funny...Everyone had to put a paper plate on their head and draw a baby without looking. I was the judge and picked the best looking baby!

Robyn & her winning drawing!

Barbara & Kristen won - guess the top baby names of 2013!

Everyone wrote wishes for Baby T & guessed the delivery date, sex, weight, time & length...whoever is the closest will get a gift card! There were a whopping 13 guesses for girl and 6 for boy! My favorite wish was Audrey's..."I hope you aren't afraid of...lawnmowers" Now that's some solid advice!
