Showers!!!

February 8, 2009 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

This weekend was full of food, presents, and “ooooing” & “aawwwing”! Saturday I went to a baby shower for my friend Beth (we met freshman year in college) and here she is opening the outfit I made for her soon-to-be-born little girl Christiana. She is a pretty adorable prego lady!


Here is Bonnie with her baby Ethan and Joshua, my friend Tanya’s son, taking a break from all the baby shower festivities!


This afternoon I went to a lovely bridal shower for my friend Leah. We’ve been friends since high school but we were also in the same 5th grade class together. Here she is holding up the new and improved apron that I made for her after the first one had a little accident (see previous post)!! I think she’ll look absolutely adorable wearing this while she does some baking for her new hubby! Well, for that matter, I’m sure Paul will look great in it too when he cooks for Leah!

Katie came and brought her baby Drew. Have I mentioned that I am in LOVE with this baby? He is so adorable! Please take note of the cute sweater he is wearing…yup, I made this! I started it last December when Katie announced she was pregnant and had it finished in June, just in time for her shower. She didn’t know what the sex of the baby was in advance so I tried to pick something that was gender neutral but not the same old yellow or green. I think Drew looks GREAT in it too! Don’t we make a cute couple?

Katie, Drew, Leah, K-A and Angela enjoying the shower!

Absolutely gorgeous afternoon making memories with Absolutely gorgeous afternoon making memories with my sweet girl! We picked the best berries, then went home where my little sous chef practiced her fine motor skills by cutting the strawberries for homemade shortcake- my all time favorite dessert (and quickly becoming C’s favorite, too)! 🍓 

The last couple of months have been super challenging regarding some unexpected health challenges for me, resulting in an emergency surgery 4.5 weeks ago, and getting back to feeling good enough to go on outings like today was at the top of my priority-list! I felt good and had a wonderful time with my best little bud!! 🥰

Also shout out to @browdersfreshpickins for allowing us to pick all along the outside rows so that C could easily use her walker in the field!
