Party On

Happy Sunday! I hope your weekend is going marvelously. I got a few things done on our to-do list, but I still have a few nagging tasks, like watching The Happiest Baby on the Block and getting some maternity clothes altered. Sadly my maternity jacket came in and it wasn’t even close to fitting. Which, I guess is okay since it wasn’t actually very warm. I’ve got to get that sent out sometime too. I guess it will wait! I, instead, got side-tracked putting recipes into OneNote and making Big Soft Ginger Cookies. Hey, cookies are very important too right? This week I went to visit the doctor, which went pretty well. I met one of the doctors who might fill in if my doctor is out of town. He was super nice, and I can honestly say I would not be bothered if we had him help us deliver. He did confirm that I’m having Braxton Hick’s (2 yesterday in about 30 minutes). He also said, per my belly measurements, that the baby might be a little late, as he’s measuring a week behind. We’ll see! Jo...

AH! I'm soooo excited. I spent some time today and yesterday completing 3 more craft projects for the party. I don't want to give too much away, since I want to save some of the decorating for the actual party blog, but I'll just tell you I got inspiration from here and here and I'm super happy with the results. It's going to be so fun! Anyways, I thought I'd take some time today to cover what we're planning as far as the actual party goes. Games: Stroller Derby Pickle Cards  (Snooki quote title in honor) We have several friends who are not big on *baby shower* games. Eating melted chocolate out of a diaper or changing pudding diapers is not for everyone! I think these games hit the spot. The pickle cards are fun because they're sort of passive, yet fun while the Stroller Derby is more of a trivia based game. I'd take trivia over drinking juice out of a bottle any day, but hey that's just me. Menu: Ham & Cheese Sliders Fruit...
