My Aunt hosted a Baby Shower this weekend for my cousin. It was a big deal since my cousin lives on the East Coast and this would probably be the only opportunity for everyone to see her while she’s preggo with her first baby. The two of us are due less than two weeks apart. 
Baby’s last name will be Rush, and although it will be a GIRL her daddy already had a BOY name picked out: Nathan Alexander Scott C? Asher Rush, so they could call him NASCAR. Men, what will we ever do with them?
The carrier on the gifts-table for cards.
My mom and my SIL are like the queen’s of wrapping pretty gifts. This was my mom’s gift.
This little green bag was my attempt at being cute. As always I got practical little things for baby: teething tablets, Vick’s Baby Rub, Clotrimiazole (for yeast infections, gross- but handy), Mylicon, pacifiers, and other little odds and ends that send Daddy’s to the pharmacy in the middle of the night. 
Hors d'oeuvres and dessert table.
The weather got pretty crabby on us with a cool mist and breeze. So everyone had to huddle closer together and I served more cups of coffee then a Starbucks Barista on a rainy morning. My mom also threw together an apple cinnamon tea that the ladies loved. It made the house smell divine. The tables were set to a lovely yellow and green color scheme.
It was a busy afternoon, full of all things baby.
And to end this post… of course, a belly shot.

looks like great fun--even if a bit chilly. you look radiant, my dear. sure wish we could throw YOU a pretty shower! xoxo
Nascar...that's funny. I've actually heard stories of dads naming their kids Espn, not initials. That would be their son's first name. You two look adorable. What a fun afternoon!
how fun. and what a funny idea with the name. I joked when our sons were born and said we were going to name him Ulysses Charles F(our last name) since his initials would be UCF the university that my hubby went to where we go to the football games
I agree, you do look ridiant!
What a beautiful baby shower. I love the flower arrangements and gift bags on the tables. What goodies were inside?
Oh, I can't wait for YOUR shower! Cathy will even get an invite, and that is how we can get her out here! Ha, my evil plans are coming together nicely my friend. It was GREAT to see you on the soccer fields. Right after I left you, I had to run back and get ice - FOR B!!! He smashed his hand putting up the banner. Boys, never stop getting owwies. ;)
Beautiful shower - love those little booties! You look amazing and love the tummy pic!
