Now, I do not recommend this. It was tiring, exhausting, and stressful, but we had no choice. They were home for Christmas and not expected to visit again until AFTER the baby is here...so, the day after Christmas it was!
Here's what it looked like...
The Food.
The Cake.
I bought a bunch of onesies in different sizes and paint pens and I had everyone make the baby a onesie.
Everyone was so creative and we had a great time doing them. They turned out so cute! She'll have her very own unique onesies for at least her whole first year.
Here's the one I made.
A few more scenes from the shower...

What a wonderful idea....a Winter Wonderland Theme. I am sure she loved and appreciated the work you put into it!!
So cute. I love the jar for the diaper fund. How sweet of you all to pull something together for her.
I love the diaper fund jar, what a splendid idea!
Team Edward...you're killing me!
Love your onesie, and that was such a clever idea!
I agree with Brandy. You really should go into the party biz.
What a great shower!
I've said it before and I'll say it again: You need to get paid for this.
Now. If I move to OK, or at least visit, and say I'm knocked up, will you throw me one of these? Or even if I'm not I'm sure my stomach is large enough I can tell everyone I am. Right?
The Onesies was a great idea!
OMG! You are so creative it's making me ill. How cute was her shower? Can you please design my next one? Great. Kthanks.
That diaper fund jar was a super idea and look how cute!! The food looked delish and the onesies were adorable.
I wonder who made the Team Edward one?
You left the SWEETEST comments on my blog and I thank you for it! :) As for the baby shower..most CREATIVE one I've ever seen. EVER. Can't wait till my sister gets preggo so I can throw her the 'greatest' one ever ! :D To answer your question I have a Sony A230 with 3 lenses (50mm 1.8, 18-55mm and 28-85mm) and I also have a vivitar speedlite for the inside shots! I love the abundance of bokeh in this post! And lastly (I promise!) Grandparents are SO special...and they seem angelic anyways but when you have situations like these (ours) it makes it that plus a zillion! Have a nice day!
I think it turned out wonderful! You have such a neat family, you are so blessed~♥
Well done!
Love the onesie and the diaper fund idea too...

Beautiful! And I can't even imagine the stress of trying to coordinate that the day after Christmas! Crazy! I hope you stayed in sweats and rested the 27th through the 31st.
Whew!
Sounds like it was a great success! You are quite the party planner! Why am I not surprised about your onsie design....LOL!
