A Baby Shower & A Birthday Party

While Will was at the Alabama/Arkansas game a couple of weeks I go, I partied hard ... at a baby shower and a second birthday party that is.

Saturday morning, we had a baby shower for my friend Kaisha who is expecting baby #3 to arrive next week!

Decorations.

The cake. Yum ... strawberry cake from Edgar's Bakery. The. Best.

The expectant mom ... sitting down as per doctor's orders. {We're lucky she was able to get out of bed to come to the shower.}

The gifts. The cutest tutu onesie ... she made it.

and a bucket full of baby fun. {Another cute gift idea: hot pink tin bucket with ribbon and name. fill with goodies of your choice.}

Kaisha the party hostesses.

After the baby shower was over, I headed to my nephew's second birthday party with a carnival theme.

Here is the birthday boy. The bounce house was a big kit with all the kids.

Little Miss Ava loved the duck pond and she was soaked by the end of the day. Doesn't she have the cutest curls EVER?!?

Uncle Jon & Aunt Ashley. The sno-cone machine was a hit too.

The older girls loved the face painting.

My sweet Claire played hard at the party. She fell asleep on the way home as she crashed from her sugar high.

The birthday boy and his mommy.

Me and Claire.

The scene. It really looks like a carnival.

Hula hooping.

Uncle Jon, the clown.

Popcorn cupcakes. Aunt Ashley always has good cake ideas. Mini marshmallows are very handy.

Time to open gifts. Ian had LOTS of help!

The drum set was a VERY popular gift.
