Vanessa is having a Baby!

Jessica and I planned a surprise shower for our friend Vanessa. 
Being as terrible at secrets as I am, I had my husband call Vanessa's husband- Stephan to help get her out of the house for the morning but he came up sick the day before! So we recruited Vanessa mother in law to do the dirty work! We also had her mom in on it too!
 She helped us with most all of the addresses! 
As they are having a boy we had a lamb (for her) and camo (for him) theme. It sounds silly but it turned out so cute! Jessi made all sorts of stuff out of diapers. A wreath, a carriage and even a cake!

I was in charge of the cookies and cupcakes. I fell in love with an umbrella shaped cupcake-cake and decided to give it a shot. 
And the cookies were so much fun to make!
These took a long time to frost to due all the detail so we were in our hotel room icing cookies until 12 but they sure turned out cute!
 
 We had a cake just for Stephan who loves to play guitar, but unfortunately with him being sick we had all the guy stuff inside with us girls, well except for the guys!

 Jessi had all the guests sign onesies made from paper with their well wishes as the sign in book and then strung them across the living room for an adorable garland! Then once the party was over she turned them into an adorable memory book!
 We also had an autograph plate for a keepsake 
and of course all sorts of presents! 
Diaper tower from all the guys!
 Now we are all just waiting for little Tobin to arrive!
Congratulations Vanessa and Stephan! You guys will be wonderful parents!
Love, Christine


p.s. Our boys were sure worn out!
