Oh Baby!

Well it's baby fever around here. Two of my cousins and one of my childhood friends all are pregnant and having babies within weeks of each other. You saw the lovely shower my childhood friend Robyn had thrown for her a few weeks back. Her lovely son was born in the beginning of July, I wish you could see the darling owl themed nursery she set up for baby Orion! 


Baby number two was born to my cousin Krystal yesterday, Joseph Daniel, a big 9 lb 12oz 20 inch long baby boy! He is a cutie with a full mohawks worth of hair already! My sister and I threw the shower for Krystal back in June and I have been so excited to share the pictures with you! Perhaps you'll recall the pom poms we were making and the wonderful country fair inspired invitation Sandy's husband designed for us? 
I ADORE the invitation Rex designed. So charming!

Just as a reminder, here is our inspiration board
We did a Country Fair theme complete with a chili cook off, baked-goods competition, quilt judging and a bean bag toss. Held in the lovely backyard of a family friend on a day of perfect weather we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. Many many thanks to all the "contestants" it was a wonderful turn out to celebrate Krystal's new addition.

We set up a bean bag toss game with the tire swing and some bean bags

Sandy's yummy cake with cute little pennant decorations


 Fun little mad-libs (Sandy's brilliant husband designed them!) for Krystal and the baby all the guests filled out
 Pin wheels in wheat grass center pieces, wonderful paper straws from Cupcake Social
 We made the water bottle "goldfish" prizes with a free downloadable from BumpSmitten



Next week I'll share photos of the oh so girly, Glam Baby shower Sandy and I threw for our glam girl Lydia! See you soon!
