Our shower was this weekend...Vendor Rave!

I didn't want the typical baby shower. To me this isn't just my baby - it is OUR baby. We decided to have a family shower - men, women & children. We also decided to have a BBQ shower with everyone at our home. It just was us - it was so right.

Thankfully Hurricane Bill & his rain stayed away! No showers at our shower!

Our cake & cookie favors were made by The Sugar Chic. I've had their cookies before - actually in January and have craved them ever since. I knew it was a must for our baby shower! Melissa & Dave are the sweetest people ever!

(Since I have GD, I ordered extra cookies & Melissa made a nice 6 inch cake for me to freeze for after birth - the 6 inch cake was even decorated so adorable!)

Our monkey cookie favors!

Our cake! - Almond cake, raspberry preserves & chocolate ganache! Oh Lordy! It was like a rainbow cookie!

October 12th. Oh...trust me I wasn't letting the day go by without a piece of cake! (and penne ala vodka) I held out on the cookie...waiting for the right time to dig in!
I will say - I didn't test lunch & dinner numbers - but fasting the next day rocked - 87! I don't know how that happened! I think all the cheese I ate - cheese is my insulin.Chat Icon
