Baby Shower

The day after Christmas, my SIL and I hosted a baby shower for our other SIL, and let me just say I would not recommend doing this ever (the day after Christmas). The hardest part was getting things done ahead of time. I had to pick up food, cake or in our case cupcakes, flowers all prior to the holiday. It just made the holiday a little crazier in my opinion. The baby shower on the other hand was nice. We had lots and lots of people in my house, also a little crazy. It was all worth it in the end. Since this shower was a family shower, it was nice to see a few people we missed during the holiday and my SIL got some very nice items. Instead of buying invitations I decided to make them. Below is an image of the invite. My BIL and SIL painted the baby's room in blocks, which gave me the idea for the different color blocks on the invite. I have some friends, who have been trying to encourage me to take up invitation creations as a side business. I am starting to think more seriously about this. I have been doing my own invites to parties and even our wedding for awhile now, and it is super fun. Maybe I should, maybe for a hobby? I don't know, we will see.

About Us

Michael and I have been together since 2006. We met in college at the University of Arkansas and began our life together. We bought a house and moved to Fayetteville from the Chicagoland area in November 2009. We were married in 2010 and had our first child, a boy, in 2013. Our favorite thing to do together is travel and we have gotten the opportunity to go to lots of fun places. We are working, breathing, playful parents. Our fur baby and child are the center of our crazy life, but we wouldn't have it any other way.
