Baby Shower Sunday

BF hosted a baby shower for R and J. I didn’t see J, but R was there. Here is the little guest of honour on MJ's lap.


DL has been working out. I was so awed by her Janet Jackson abs that I had to take a picture!


Here’s the stuff I brought for the baby. The P.D. Eastman book is the baby version of the same title in hard back that J bought for my oldest when he was born. I knitted the bear. For the knitters out there, more pics and comments about the pattern can be found here.




This is my contribution to the snacks. The cake was made by a local Greek bakery. I was supposed to make some cheesecake-pecan pies, but it’s been too hot to bake. I was actually praying for rain so that I could bake!


The message on the cake needs explaining. When I told them that I wanted, Welcome Anna Maria written on the cake and that it was for a baby shower, they assumed that the baby was coming home from the hospital the day of the party, hence their addition of Home to the icing.

Here’s the SOLS crew. I’m in the fuschia T-shirt beside cake-cutting R. I'm not actually that short - I'm bending forward so that you can see the folks in the back. The shower and traditional passing-around of the baby was enjoyed by all. BF is such a great hostess – she puts on the nicest gatherings.
