Baby Shower

Well I am exhausted but hey that is what weekends are for. Right?
There was a gathering of women at our house this afternoon for a baby shower for my daughter Allison who is due to deliver a beautiful baby girl in three weeks.
There were also three other very pregnant women here too!!

It was fun and look what crafty ole me made...

I had a blast making this cake - the inside is all diapers and baby bottles up the center to hold it all together. Receiving blankets and baby pins around each layer and then the fun part - decorating it.

Yummy mini cupcakes made by Kim.

Oh soooo adorable baby gifts and a few funny games.

And then the pregnant ladies got together.....

And they only had punch!!!

I hesitated posting these photo, but I think the ladies are okay with their beautiful bellies showing. If not ladies, let me know and I will remove the photos ASAP.

More photos password protected on my photography web site 
Those of you who know Allison will know the password. .... or e-mail me.

The Diaper Bag arrived!

...and it is beautiful and much larger than I had imagined.


Yes I bought one of those diaper bags I told you about. Boy it can hold a lot of things.


I know... but I am keeping it for some special Mom.













Well, one day I will be a Grandma and
well, just thought these were sooo very nice.



And they are. beautifully sewn by Tina in Manitoba.










They are roomy and filled with pockets on the outside and the inside.


And also very soft...and oh so pretty.













Tina's sewing skills are really superb!
And I just discovered that she knits too!


This is so solid and well made. AND I suspect that once you remove the support in the bottom of the bag, it can be thrown in the washing machine.



I will have to ask Tina about that.






So head on over to Tina at Bits of Scrap and Check out her blog and you can get one too.

You can also check out some of her pictures on her first bag here.


They are $45.00 plus shipping.

Tell her I sent you. ;)
