I had my first Baby Shower today and I can already tell you that Parker is loved and has so many ladies that will be in his life that have been the support I've always needed in mine. They are the best!
(Prepare for a picture overload, I have lots to share.)
Four of my very dear friends (Emily, Jenn, Wendy and Cathy) hosted the shower today and I am so grateful for everything they did!
They didn't miss a single detail and thought of everything. I loved it all!
Like these delicious cookies that matched the invitation colors and of course they had Parker's monogram. 
Jenn made this wreath out of diapers and attached all kinds of cute and useful baby things to it! 
She also made this super cute banner with Parker's name! I love the colors! And check out that big ole' belly! Holy 32 weeks preggers!
There were a ton of gifts to open, my SUV was packed and Graysen had as much fun as I did opening every gift again! Parker got some very cute outfits and shoes. I also don't think I'll have to buy baby wash for a while!
A few other pregnant friends were there and I just realized as I'm typing this that we're all having BOYS!
Mama Faith and I did a belly shot and I was laughing so hard that this is a terrible picture of me but I still have to share! She's due with Baby BOY #2 in April! I can't wait for all of our boys to grow up together!
Paulette and Ann are also pregnant with their first baby right and both are having BOYS! Paulette is due in March and Ann in February and me in January. We'll have lots of fun play dates!
Of course a pregnant Mommy's gotta eat! Emily and I couldn't stay away from the meatballs! But you can usually find us by the food table, food just sucks us in!
Some of my favorite ChiO's were there. Being the old advisor I am for them they still make me feel young! These girls crack me up! I know I'll have some great babysitters to call!
Parker's favorite Aunt Mayme (Amy is her real name but when my brother was little he couldn't say her name right and called her Mayme so that's what Baby B will call her) was there to spoil him with more gifts! She keeps buying things for him and filling up his closet!
Yesterday was perfect! We are so blessed to have so many wonderful people in our life and I can't wait to introduce Baby Ballard to all of them!
(Stay tuned...nursery pictures to come soon!)
