Showerin' the BabyMama!

I was so happy to FINALLY be able to host a shower for Danielle. I'll have to admit I was starting to feel like even mentioning the word "shower" was starting to jinx her pregnancies so this time I waited until I knew FOR SURE she'd be bringing home this baby! Roslyn, our friend from college, and Jaclyn, one of Danielle's friends, helped me with all the showering.Can you find little babycakes in this pic?? He's in there! She was given so many great gifts. Many that were all crafty and handmade.........Her favorite being this super diaper cake I'm sure. It takes a really talented and crafty kind of person to make such a creation. And a loving person, too. Diaper cakes are one of the most difficult and challenging handmade gifts one can give to a person. Oh, who am I foolin'. I made the diaper cake. And for the record, I AM really proud of it. It's definitely out of my comfort zone.Ros showed up with her cutie patootie bird egg cupcakes. She claimed they were ghetto looking but I think they turned out really cute. (Crosby's room has a little birdie theme).We had a great turnout of friends. It was like a mini reunion! These are some chickies we went to highschool with. Veronica next to me drove from Memphis. She has 4 kiddos. Chrystal in the front drove from Birmingham. She has one little boy. Erica in the green lives here in Spring Hill and I would consider her fairly newly wed. Natalie in the middle drove from Ripley, about 3 hours away! It was so great to see all of them!

I had to get a new pic with Ros. The framed one I have up in my house was WAY dated.
Here's a pic with Amy, one of my college roomies. We haven't seen each other in about 3 years! My, how time flies. She now has 2 girls of her own.
Jaime, my other college roomie besides Danielle with Roslyn and Amy. I'm very fortunate to be able to see Jaime usually at every holiday. She's married to one of my best guys friends from highschool and they have 2 kids.

Danielle's mother-in-law made her this monogrammed towel. She can put it over her head and then wrap little Crosby in it when she gets him out of the tub. I'm posting this pic out of all the gifts because it just tickles me pink to see it for some reason!
Here's a pic with Veronica, Danielle, and Natalie.Most of you will wonder why in the world I would post this seemingly not good picture........ I do so because this is a TRUE representation of the way things are whenever we get together. It never fails that Ros points her bony fingers at us and says something off the wall and Danielle and I are like, "Whatever, Ros.....".


To end this incredibly picture laden post I will let you feast your eyes on some baby cuteness........


And let you peek in on a little love to baby from the BabyMama........




Mmmmmmm. Doesn't it just make your heart feel good?!

Why yes it does make a heart feel good... and glad you finally posted. I have been looking for it since Saturday. Now I am really upset that I did not just jog down there in my sweats and meet that sweet boy and his amazing mama!
