A Baby Shower Fit For A Rock Star!!

We had such a wonderful time at our baby shower on Saturday!! We felt so blessed that so many of our loved ones came. And it is a great feeling knowing that our little guy is already loved by so many people.

The theme of the shower was rock n' roll. I thought this was such a cute idea considering my hubby has been in a rock band for the past 10 years of his life... well more if you include his first band in high school, "Duck Tape." haha! Erik also has a ton of other musicians in his family so the theme fit perfectly! 

Typically men don't attend a lot of the baby showers but I really wanted Erik to be involved. So they had a Corona bucket set-up for the guys and they all seemed to enjoy themselves! haha Not to mention Anna and Kim's amazing feast. You just have to feed the guys and provide beer and they are pretty much good to go in any circumstances. And I think Erik enjoyed opening the gifts as much as I did. Sometimes he took too long playing with the presents so I started opening them while he played. It was very cute! 

Here are some photos from the shower:


Adorable Diaper Cakes!!

My First Baby Shower!!

This past week was a little stressful. Right after we received the good news about my mom, she went into the doctors for a normal procedure but during surgery her esophagus was perforated. She was rushed to the emergency room and she has been at the hospital ever since. She cannot eat or drink until her esophagus is healed. So she could be in the hospital for another 8-10 days. So she had to miss my first baby shower yesterday. I wish she could have made it. I know she was very excited to celebrate her first grandchild. We took tons of photos to show her and we are hoping she heals soon so she can make it to the next shower! 

Besides missing my mom at the shower, everything else was absolutely perfect. My sister and my best friend, Marisa threw the cutest nautical shower!! I am so thankful for both of them. They worked so hard on all of the details and they really did a wonderful job on everything! I have been blessed with the best group of friends and a lot of them drove several hours just to make it for the shower. It was so great to see everyone. It was hard living so far away from them for the past two years so I am very glad I am within driving distance now!  

Here are a few photos from the shower. We didn't get a group shot on my camera. I hope one turns up and I can add it to the mix. 

The diaper cake!! Isn't this adorable!?


Erik's aunt made us the best cupcakes!




Ahoy it's a boy!
