Yesterday I had the honor of throwing a little baby shower for one of my dear friends.
This is her second pregnancy,
as she has a darling 4-year-old girl,
but her first boy!!!!
The trend these days is to call it a 'sprinkle'
if it is a second baby;
but...call it what you want...
we did our best
to shower
Alicia and soon-to-be 'big sister'
Avery with all our love.
Avery picked the theme of 'monkeys'...
so we ran with it!
 |
| cake and all desserts done by Alicia's friend Laurie - so talented! |
 |
| guests-of-honor...with mama enjoying a mango mimosa {alcohol-free version! :)} |
 |
| sock monkey riding a 'diaper motorcycle' |
 |
| faux champagne and onesie decorating! |
 |
| my friend and co-hostess, laura {also, it was held in her beautiful home!!!} |
 |
| another sweet little one in attendance |
 |
| avery enjoying the monkey from the cake |
 |
| even the inside was cute! |
 |
| a truly lovely group of ladies - we had fun!!! |
 |
| me and the mama and sister-to-be |
 |
| I'm not above taunting small dogs with sock monkeys |
 |
| soon to be a family of four! |
Thank you for letting me be a part of this celebration, Alicia!
You have been such an awesome friend and you inspire in many ways,
especially as a mama.
Can't wait for many more play-dates to come!
You're almost there!

I have never heard of a sprinkle! And I've never been to a 2nd baby shower! Hmmmm....Come on friends of mine! ;) Get on the ball! Hahaha.
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely. And what a beautiful big sister.
I love all of this! Such a cute theme! Also, the banoffee cake...drool! Banana and toffee are seriously my too favorite treats! Put them together and I'd be in heaven!!
