Baby Showers...What Fun!!!!

Josh, Bib, and I had a shower-filled weekend! Momma Mertz and Momma Kinsel (or I guess we should call them grandmomma's), along with our sister's Michelle and Brandi, threw us two fabulous showers in Cincinnati this past weekend. We got so much stuff for Bib, we filled the back of our Tahoe! Mamaw Kinsel and Auntie Brandi made us the cutest diaper cake, and they had a very neutral yellow and green color-scheme going. Grandma Mertz and Auntie Michelle had a "pea-in-the-pod" theme going, and my Aunt Joy and cousin Cristal made us another adorable diaper cake! The diaper cakes are so great, I don't want to take them apart!!! We got our travel system stroller, our jogging stroller, our pack 'n' play, lots of diapers and wipes, tons of clothes, and so many other much-needed items! We also got enough $ in gift cards to Best Buy to purchase a camcorder so we can record Bib's "firsts" and post them on our blog!!!! We are so blessed to have such wonderful, supportive, generous, and giving friends and family! Thanks to Grandmom's Mertz and Kinsel, and Michelle and Brandi for organizing two awesome showers! And thanks to those of you that came and gave us all that precious baby stuff! We love you all, and can't wait to introduce you to Bib!


Aunt Joy made a "Daddy's tool belt" for Josh so he will be fully equipped to change dirty diapers! :-)

Daddy Josh did a great job putting our travel system together! He put it together immediately after we got home from our 2 1/2 hour drive! I think he's more than excited about Bib's arrival!

Pea-in-the-pod cake!

Aunt Michelle ordered these candy bars as party favors...they were so cute! Click on the picture to enlarge so you can read it!

The back of the candy bars...I love the nutrition facts and ingredients!

Fun fun fun, cute pea pod idea. What kind of stroller is that?

Lisa and Josh said...

Thanks, ladies! Kat, the stroller is a Graco. It is one of those travel system strollers where you have your car seat and it snaps right into the stroller so you don't have to take the baby out of the seat to put it in the stroller. Very convenient for when they're newborns.
