This week I had TWO baby showers!!! Talk about busy! I am so thankful to have so many friends and family that are willing to put on these showers for us! 

The first shower was with my work family. April and Karen were just wonderful and we had so much fun! Karen brought her little girl who was definitely the life of the party! She was so sweet and LOVED having an audience! Of course, we were all happy to oooh and awe at her adorableness! 

April made me the cutest gift ever! It was a basket filled with "diaper babies" she had fashioned out of diapers, socks, and wash cloths! I absolutely loved it!

Our next baby shower was huge and SO MUCH FUN! My church family from Berea also happens to be most of my Dad's side of the family so the turn-out was amazing! We decided to have it at our favorite Mexican restaurant and my mom and aunt Sherry brought cakes and cupcakes and punch! This baby shower was adorable! Mom's coconut duck cake was super sweet and Sherry made a baby cake with a blanket modeled after Eli's comforter!!! I couldn't believe it! She also made a tribute to my blog on it!

Baby Eli got his first pair of cowboy boots!

My aunt Sherry made this blanket for Eli. I definitely teared up when she was showing me the patches on the quilt and told me they were all made from fabric my late grandmother had. Some of the pieces were actually from a quilt my grandma had already started.

This was one of my favorite parts of the shower! Two of my best friends and my little brother all raced to see who could finish drinking from the baby bottle first! Cody gave up and Stuart cheated by taking the bottle cap off and just drinking the juice! (Left to Right: Stuart, Josh, and Cody)

And my other favorite part: The baby foot tasting competition. Danny, Brandon, Andrew and Grady were all champs!
