Splish Splash Shower...(29 1/7 weeks)

Today I had a wonderful "Splish Splash" Shower full of rubber duckies and lovely friends and family. This shower was hosted by Cheryl, Kathy and Andrea (Hanson Family) at Cheryl's House in Pewaukee. The menu consisted of phenomonal chicken salad croissants, pasta salad, a green salad, fruit kabobs, oreo dump cake, mini cherry cheesecakes, punch n more! It was a wonderful feast.

Games we played included, baby food guessing game (no tasting, just looking!) And diaper poo guessing game. I was terrible at both of them. I didn't realize the numerous flavors and combinations available for baby food these days. The diaper guessing game had diapers full of different food items. I sort of gave up after smelling the first few as it was starting to make me nauseous, and I couldn't come up with the answers. Things such as peanut butter and jelly, garlic, onion, worcestershire sauce, jalapenos, blue cheese, and tuna just to name a few. This game you could only smell the diaper, no looking. It was not easy, but it was fun and entertaining. Here is Andrea and I! Andrea only has about 2 weeks to go before Mr. Breyson will be joining us.
After games, everyone made us a scrapbook page to start a scrapbook for the little Smith baby. Very creative!
Then came the numerous wonderful gifts. I can't even start to list everything we got. Many of the bigger items (Pack N Play, highchair, Activity Center by Baby Einstein, clothes hamper, etc.) And many other items off the registry also. A picture describes the items better than me listing!
Andrea made a wonderful diaper cake, of course it followed the shower theme also. (Notice the picture frame has a picture in it, that is Me, Andrea, Casey and Ashley, naked in the tub! Priceless!!)
Gizmo felt a little left out when I came home with all these gifts. So he managed to get ahold of a rubber ducky. I figured we had enough to spare one for him to play with one! He really liked it! We'll see how long until it is in a million pieces, so far so good! He looks so innocent though!
All the gifts you saw on the table and scattered around the dining room are there to stay until Ed arrives home tomorrow from MI. He was there with the Smith family men doing some work on the cabin, and maybe a little golf too! He insists on inspecting everything we received before I put it away still!
