Love: Baby Shower

Our Little All-Star

Baby Shower

 

 

Mommy and Daddy to Be!

 

 

My mom, my aunt (the host), and us, Mommy and Daddy to Be!

 

 

My dad planned a great menu to go with the All-Star theme, a Concession Stand.

On the Menu:

Mini Hamburgers

Mini Corn Dogs

Nacho Bar

Popcorn in Red and White Striped Popcorn Boxes

 

 the food table

 



 drinks and cupcakes

 I made the cupcakes, very simple, but vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with vanilla or chocolate buttercream.

 



We kept the centerpieces simple, diaper cakes with a sports themed ribbon (football, baseball, and basketball). We thought it would be a waste of money to have centerpieces that were not useful for the baby.

 

 I made each of the banners with my Cricut. There were pretty simple, but turned out really cute!

 

 My mom and aunt had an excellent idea, a Diaper Raffle. Everyone who brought in a pack of diapers was entered into drawing for a prize. They wanted to make sure it was a good prize so they decided on a $25 Visa gift card.

Baby Connor is loved already!

 

Games:

We had 3 games to play (sorry I only have pictures of 1).

 

The Price is Right:

While this game is a bit expensive to set up, it was fun and it makes a nice gift for the mommy-to-be. My mom and aunt a variety of baby items, a bottle, diapers, wipes, a jar of food, rice cereal, diaper cream, etc. Everyone got a chance to see the items, and record what they thought it cost on a list. They had pre-printed a list with all the items on it, so you just had to fill it in beside it. The person whose total was closet to the actual total was the winner.

 

Guess the Baby Food:

8 different baby foods were set out with spoons at each for everyone to try. Then there was a paper made to guess what the food was. Thankfully there was also a list of the possible foods that it could be. The person who got the most correct was the winner.

 

Dress the Baby:

This one was by far the funniest game to watch.

                

                 

 With a timer set we were put to the test of how fast we could put a diaper, a onesie, socks, and a hat on a baby doll. This was within reason. I mean no holding the baby up by its leg or throwing it around. The person with the fastest time won.
