Coming Soon!

My next post will be on alphabet cards, which I love.  But not writing the post about them - that will be long. But it's for Pip, who has been requesting it for a month.  Pip whose water broke this morning.  Pip who is outside putting in a garden while pretending nothing is happening.  Pip who is going to have the baby in the backseat of their car in a traffic jam on the way to Seattle :)

Keemosabee will get to practice his boy scout skills.  Oh, wait, that's right he didn't do scouts, he played on the basketball team instead.  So he will dribble the baby.  Babies like dribbling.

Best. Baby Shower. Ever.

I was expecting this...

{Ribbon Gothic by Ataxia}Instead it felt like this!

{VE Day UK 1945}No Funny Hats. No Diaper Pin Games. No Cream Cheese Sandwich Loaf.

Just Fresh Flowers. Great Food. Lots of Passing the Baby Around and Happy Conversation.

It was everything a shower should be - pure celebration. Our genius hostesses booked a table at the wonderful Tillicum Place Cafe, ordered lovely food, then sat back and let the afternoon cheerfully take it's own course. Three and a half hours later we slowly and reluctantly pulled ourselves away.

I am so doing this next time I host a baby shower; I don't know why I never thought of it before.
