Baby Shower in Boston

Kristy, Jen, & Carrie,(the only pics I have of them from the party!!)

My friends Jen, Carrie, & Kristy put together a Baby Shower for me last weekend. It was so fun, and so nice to see everyone again. The three of them really worked hard to be sure everything was perfect- from the food, to the games, to the decorations! It was so very nice and I am so lucky to have friends like them!!!!!
We started off playing "guess how big Jill's belly is" by asking people to tear off the amount of toilet paper they think it would take to wrap around my belly. Here is Melissa testing
her "guess"- she won!!!

Melissa enjoying her prize for winning the toilet paper game. Unfortunately, she left her beloved prize behind and they made me try them on for giggles. (I was not a fan of sticking my nose in a pair of glasses everyone else had put their nose in!!!) But... didn't want to be a party pooper!!! Speaking of which...... read below

They passed around a bunch of gross diapers and tried to guess what was in them. Some were down right di-o-sgusting!

Then- they brought out a bunch of blank white onesies for everyone to decorate! We all picked different designs to iron on (or draw with marker). They came out so cute!!

This little baby of mine is all set for clothes for the first 0-3mos of her life!

And then we got to open presents!!! All the baby items are just too too cute!!!!!!! Everyone was very generous and thoughtful- this baby girl will have some of the softest, cutest little things ever! I definitely need to read the instructions on some of these new gadgets... but am looking forward to it! We already put her pack n play in our bedroom (still in the box), but she is all set to take her sweet little naps right next to our bed!!!

And finally- some pictures of the decorations. These took A LOT of thought and planning! I was just happy we were able to use my serveware that we got for our wedding, isn't it such a pretty layout!

I love having parties where we can use all of our fun stuff. But let me tell you- the 3 hosts worked all weekend to gather all necessary items and make sure everything was perfect. They even searched all over for a place that would blow up their balloons with helium!

Look at this diaper cake Carrie & Jen made- Jen said she will never make one again!!! I was so honored to have one made for me... how special!!!!!

And notice what Kristy did with this watermelon? It's a little stroller/bassinet!!!! TOO CUTE!!!!
