I get Better Homes and Garden Magazine and love it, as I am sure you guessed.
I noticed on their online site they have a scrapbook section. I came across this Fun New Guest Book idea:
Stories By Everyone

'Your wedding guests will love recording their advice, thoughts and best wishes for your future.

Every couple has a story. Tell yours with this easy-to-personalize guestbook. You can include your favorite photos, dating stories, important dates, and more. Add up to 15 photos to this 30-page book and give your guests 448 lines to help commemorate your special day.'

They also have some other wedding items - all 25% off till the end of April.

Look at their Swatchbooks and coupon books - I think I will order the baby steps one.

It's a Boy!!

Friday Oct 17th I gave birth to a beautiful little boy!

Gavin Joseph joined this world at 4:31 pm weighing in at 6lbs, 12 oz and 20 inches long.
He is just perfect and has stole my heart from the minute I held him.

We are doing great - trying to get used to everything about having a new little one.

Here is a pic of my lil' pumpkin.


I will be a bit slow on posts for awhile - bear with me.

Polka Dot Baby Shower

I wanted to share pictures with all of you about my Polka Dot Pram Baby Shower this past Sat. Hosted by my mom but some of my special touches added in.

Welcome!
Hydrangeas in the prams and mums in the mini vases.


Thanks to my dad for cutting perfect fuzzy squares to make the diapers.
I had to explain to my dad why I had to have circular menus - its a theme dad!
Parenting advice or wish bowl. Felt wrapped votive holder.
Decorate at Onsie for Baby T.
I just love these drinks! such a colorful detail.

And a very special Diaper Cake made by my mom (its a side biz of hers if anyone is interested)
Thanks Mom!
and the event wouldn't be complete without cupcakes in cute baby wrappers.
The Shower was held at Jasper Restaurant in Downingtown, PA.
Thanks to Select Event Rentals for donating the linens.

Ducky Themed Baby Shower

I am a little late in posting this but my good friend Shannon (also from Memory Lane Engagements in MD) hosted this awesome baby shower for me. Yellow rubber duckies and sunflowers were everywhere!





I know she found some great deals on the duckies at World Market and Blue Tulip also sells them.
Thanks Shannon!
