Back in March, we headed to Cincinnati for a weekend for Alli's baby shower. It was a great blue and puppy dog-themed weekend, and so nice to have an extra weekend of extended family time.
Ready to open a pile of gifts!
Alli with the shower hostesses: the Demko sisters, Mary Beth, and me
Pregnant sisters! Alli is/was due in early May, and MB in early September. I think it's neat that Mary and I were pregnant together twice and then she and Alli were pregnant together. That means cousin buddies that are close in age!
Playing the oh-so-fun guess the belly circumference game! Mary Ann's string wrapped around twice plus. I have learned the best way to play this game is to guess short. Makes the mom-to-be feel good!
The shower was blue and gray in color, and puppy dog themed since Alli and Micah have two dogs. Paw print cupcakes.
The dessert table
A diaper cake
Puppy chow in dog dishes and baby washcloths folded into puppy dogs
Mary Beth flew in for the shower, so she was kid-free. She enjoyed some 1 on 1 (or 1 on 2?) nephew time--here snuggling with TJ.
Another of Thomas' buddies from the weekend was Uncle Lloyd. He and Thomas (and Jojo, a bit) did a lot of coloring.
Ed and Jojo were in town too!
The original Ruble five. This group will number 17 in September!
