Work - Baby Shower

My work threw me a little baby shower with Thai food, really neat cupcakes, decorations, etc. It was a pleasant surprise and very heartwarming. Due to various circumstances, we never had a baby shower when I was pregnant with Michael, and it was very sweet and thoughtful this time around.

I already knew they were going to do something, as I could tell on my registry they bought me a travel system , which was wrapped beautifully. Something we really needed, too!

They were trying for a surprise, although I kinda knew what was going on since people were spending a lot of time in the large conference room. When I got there, they had decorated the room with balloons and confetti. Here are some pictures of the stuff after I brought them home. (My boss videotaped everything, so I am sure I will have a record of my bright red blushing face...)

Very cute cupcakes with the safari theme kept in mind...they made sure to get enough so Michael and husband would have some...

Balloons and confetti--they made sure not to do much PINK (a color I actually hate)...






They also got me this really cute bottle warmer/rattle.

(I hate pink too- once people hear 'girl' they tend to overdose and it can make you nauseous)

Adorable! What a wonderful thing that they did for you! And its even that much sweeter (pun intended) since you didn't get a shower for your first pregnancy!

Now I'm dying for a cupcake!!
