So, I recently had a very intersting and wonderful experience throwing a baby shower for my sister-in-law, Lisa.  I have never planned a baby shower before, nor have I ever ATTENDED a baby shower, so I knew that I was in for a lot of researching and hard work.

First of all, do you realize how many baby websites there are out there?  I had no idea how many baby names, baby games and baby tips you could find on the internet.  It was all a bit overwhelming for me, especially because it seems like everything for baby showers is so TACKY.

Luckily, my sister-in-law, Amy, is a great cook, so I knew the food would be taken care of…and it was.  Beautiful quiches and fruit salad accompanied by to-die-for caramel muffins made by my mother-in-law, Carol, and of course BETTY CAKE!

Overall, the shower was a huge success…everyone had a great time, and John and Lisa went home with a ton of great loot!  It was a fun experience, but needless to say, I’m baby-ed out for a while. :)
