Oh Baby Baby

So I meant to get this post out on Monday, since it was raining, and the theme around this post was a shower...tee hee.   But I thought I'd share some photos on the nugget shower we (Lucy Baldwin and myself) threw for T Money last week!  Theresa is due end of April, but keeping the baby's gender a surprise-I love that!

Enjoy!

Congrats T!

It was a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme :) 

Thanks to (the engaged!) Rachel for tying all these up.

You know, just a little caterpillar, in the grass.  (Grass is just green pipe cleaners, cut in half! Caterpillar was sponge painted onto cardstock and cut out. Feet and face are done with a sharpie. easy peasy)

This one's a little hard to see-the lighting was backwards for where I needed to take the picture.  But there's a caterpillar on the ceiling.  

There he is! Hungry little fellow.  Simple-balloons hung from differing heights. Face made from construction paper.  Easy and cheap.

Lady of the hour!  And these fun straws are paper-love-and found them on Etsy.  Many people sell them and they're found in all colors and patterns, but to give credit where credit is due, I bought them from Bona Ceri.  Check out her page-many fun party supplies to be found!

Colorful and edible.  double #win

Oh hey, another caterpillar.  He was supposed to be made out of tissue paper poofs, but since I botched all I tried to make, back to balloons!

Showered with gifts...totes highlighting the amazing wooden signs that Anna B. made down in front.  They say "fearfully and wonderfully made."  All in the nursery's colors.  Creative? Heck yes.  And we also think she should go into business making those signs for order-don't you agree?

Only a face a mother could love?  I think not, especially considering I have my doubts as to whether his momma would recognize him...seeing as she would probably be a butterfly.  

A baby at a baby shower?  How forward thinking.  Coincidentally the only picture I took of people at this whole shindig.  Obsessed with crafting much, em?  Julie, you light up the room :)

Anyway, congrats to Theresa and Steve, we are stoked to meet your little nugget, soon!  

Also, update on the cancery cancer front-since I'm not sure what to call my condition-had an appointment with my doctor last Thursday and he called today to say that my lung function tests are looking good!  They're back to where I started, or my benchmark.  Woo!  Also, I got word that I'll be off prednisone in 2 months, or only 7 weeks now :)  And then we can get my final PET scan a month after I'm off the drugs, to make sure that the cancer is gone.  

Ooooh, and an update on Operation Danner Get Fit:  I'm down 10 lbs-today at least ;)  And I started Insanity today.  Kicked my butt.  Like this move-who jumps with both legs and gets your knees above your waist?  Crazy people, that's who.  But I hope to be one of them in 60 days. 

Wednesday, Friendsday.

Hugs not drugs.
