Baby Shower

Well I am exhausted but hey that is what weekends are for. Right?
There was a gathering of women at our house this afternoon for a baby shower for my daughter Allison who is due to deliver a beautiful baby girl in three weeks.
There were also three other very pregnant women here too!!

It was fun and look what crafty ole me made...
I had a blast making this cake - the inside is all diapers and baby bottles up the center to hold it all together. Receiving blankets and baby pins around each layer and then the fun part - decorating it.
Yummy mini cupcakes made by Kim.
Oh soooo adorable baby gifts and a few funny games.
And then the pregnant ladies got together.....
And they only had punch!!!
I hesitated posting these photo, but I think the ladies are okay with their beautiful bellies showing. If not ladies, let me know and I will remove the photos ASAP.

More photos password protected on my photography web site 
Those of you who know Allison will know the password. .... or e-mail me.

No worries on my part, Julie. Bummed I'm the only one with an "official" outie, though. ;-D
It was a blast, Julie! Thanks again!
