Adam & Beth's Little Baby Cakes is on the Way

Even in the midst of all going on with Hannah, I was able to get away, and we had a great time celebrating with my sister. I'm so thankful for all the help that my mom was with the shower. She arranged for us to have the shower at the Richfield Art Studio, which was the perfect place and did lots of other things too! Her and Dad also left the hospital early and went to the art studio to do all the decorating.
Beth and Adam are expecting their first baby, due on October 30th (the day after my birthday-I'm hoping the baby will take after Hannah and come a day early :)). Beth's pregnancy has gone very well...she even survived moving to a new home! Beth and Adam aren't finding out if it's a boy or a girl...and are so excited for the surprise to come on delivery day!

The theme for the shower was: "Beth & Adams Little Baby Cakes in on the Way". The theme was based on the book "BabyCakes". We don't even have this book, but it's one of those library books that we check out over and over again...Hannah loves it! I knew that it would be a good pick for baby Riss. The theme worked out well for a gender neutral shower. I enjoyed using primary colors, which is a little different from the normal pastels.

signing the prediction chart. We had everyone guess the baby's birth date, sex, and weight...more votes for a baby girl....can't wait to see!!
