celebrating baby

today was my sister's baby shower

my dad made the crib - it's awesome and makes me wish i was having another
4 kids and could ask for one - ha ha!!! just kidding :)
emily picked it out from land of nod and my dad replicated it - wow!

my mom is very much into the small details (ya, that's where olivia gets it)
the cake matched the dessert napkins - which i forgot to get a picture of
but you can see how cute the larger napkins were
(my mom was worried that her church ladies would be offended by the napkins...ha ha)

my mom, emily & i are known for copying each other
today was no exception
as you can see the wrap top/large necklace look was very much in
but emily & i took it one step further...

yes, we both wore a faux wrap dress, lace cami and tall boots!



...
emily is about 3 weeks out from her due date,
so i should be posting little baby white pics soon!

and for the record, i think it's a boy.
...




and now that sarah has given me the crash course in picasa collages i'll post some christmas pictures... one of these days :)

i tried to match gerrit's birthday cake with his napkins too! mine didn't turn out as cute as your mom's did but it was an attempt (that i don't think anyone else noticed but me!). looks like a fun day. kudos to your dad for the crib. what a great heirloom! how special. when you said one step further i was thinking you were going to say you were prego again! :) hehehe
