Baby Showers Galore!

Tis the season to be knocked up! I have sooo many friends that are expecting. I think there was something in the water. (P.S. We carry the cutest "Knocked Up" Dogeared necklace. Available in silver and gold. Perfect for the prego friend in your life. http://www.bonlemon.com/item_184/Dogeared-Knocked-Up-Necklace.htm)

I am co-hosting 3, not 1, not 2, but 3, baby showers this spring. Pump Wearing Parole Officer is knocked up, Sister is knocked up, and Montana Belle is knocked up! These are all going to be unique and fabulous showers. I have been scouring the Internet for appropriate invitations and found some! I can't post pictures now, because it would ruin the surprise for all of the guests. :)

I have also been looking for unique games, decorations, favors, etc. Baby showers are one of those things that can get painfully generic, so a little creativity goes a long way. There are so many creative people out there. I am planning on scalping as many ideas as I can :). I love these bottles for a baby girl shower.



Are you freaking kidding me?




And how about this french patisserie...? Ooo la la.



And this...



OMG




I need an unlimited budget and lots of free time. More details on real life baby showers coming soon.

10 Things We Love About the Power Being Out

10. Snuggling with Dolce.

9. You get to feel like Laura in Little House on the Prairie.

8. The way candlelight makes the whole room flicker.

7. Silence. Real silence. For longer than you would have dared exist with your own thoughts otherwise.

6. You don't feel like a slacker for skipping the morning shower.

5. The fireplace still works so you are warm and toasty. (That's where Dolce likes to hang out.)

4. Your computer doesn't work, so you are "forced" to read Vanity Fair by candlelight rather than catch up on invoices.

3. You have an excuse to buy more Votivo candles from Spruce Skin and Wax Shoppe.

2. You realize just how useful that Blackberry of yours can be. Flashlight anyone?

1. The water doesn't work, and the only liquid not in the fridge is... you guessed it...wine! Here's to hydrating.
