Baby Shower

On Saturday we had a baby shower for Casey. It turned out to be a full house and tons of fun.




Isn't this the cutest cake you ever saw? It had raspberry filling in it. The cake also gives you a peek at what Jack's room looks like. We copied these animals from his blanket, traced them on the wall and painted them. Too cute!

And one parting shot of the happy expecting couple.
Soon...so soon.

  12. Awww another baby Jack? That's my grandsons name. He is 18 months. I loved the name they chose and started calling him baby Jack before he was born. Then I thought what if they change their minds? Can you picture this 10 year old boy asking mom and dad "Why does Grandma Di keep calling me baby Jack?" Fortunately they didn't change their minds and named him Jack Evan!
    The cake was beautiful Jules and with raspberry filling, sounded delicious. I think his room will be adorable. Love Di
