Hot Mama Baby Shower

Sunday was my second baby shower hosted by my gorgeous Step-Sister and Mama. Those two put so much work into this and the shower was absolutely beautiful.

My mom and sister made all of the delicious food themselves, well except for the cupcakes which are from my favorite little place, Sweet Retreat. I can't even imagine how much time they spent cooking this incredible food, especially since most of it was Greek and there is nothing quick about cooking Greek food. Deviled eggs, pita and hummus, assorted olives, orzo salad, spanikopita and dolmades were just some of the yummy snacks they made! 

I was completely overwhelmed by all the amazing gifts. These ladies really spoiled me and Nugget and this little one has quite a bit to be grateful for-such as a stroller, Pack N Play, Glider chair (though I am the one who is super grateful for that), bath tub, diaper genie, TONS of adorable clothes, and some fabulous accessories....little lady is going to be quite the fashion plate. 

The shower guests were all family and very dear friends. It was such a special group of people and I absolutely loved having everyone all together. It warms my heart to see how much all these important people in my life already love this little girl. I seriously tear up  thinking about it.

To my Mama & Sissy Face, 
Thank you both SO much for all the hard work you put into throwing a beautiful shower. Everything was perfect and I had the best time. You two completely outdid yourselves. 
Me & the Nugget are so lucky to have you both. 
XOXO. 

This morning I am off to see my doctor and get an ultrasound....fingers and toes crossed that everything looks OK. 

Oh, and one more thing...
Today is October 8th.
My due date is November 8th. 
I'm bad at math, so I'll let you figure this one out. 
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek!

OMG one more month to go!!! That's so cute how Jason decided all on his own to steam the rug. That's one of the many things on my before-baby-comes-to-do list. I think my husband needs to take some lessons from Jason!
What an adorable shower. All of that food looks amazing.
