Ali’s Baby Shower

Over the weekend we got to spend some good time with our friends Mo and Ali. They are expecting a baby boy in July and we are SO excited! Our boys are going to be best friends for sure. On Sunday I went to Ali’s baby shower and had a great time celebrating her and her little guy.

Two bellies! My bump is sort of hidden by my dress….trust me, it’s there!

Ali got a ton of cute stuff for the baby.

One of the gifts we got them was this octopus that plays different notes when you squeeze each leg. The husband liked this toy so much he added it to our baby registry!

This little red sweater just kills me!

The happy parents to be. It’s so weird that the next time we see them there will be a baby….and that soon we’ll have one too. Crazy town. We can’t wait to meet your little guy in just a few weeks!

    Looks like a beautiful day and fun shower! (I'm also a bit surprized that the windows in that last picture did not have striped curtains!). It won't be long till we start seeing pictures of someone else's baby showers! Thanks for sharing. EZ
