Baby Shower

Last evening we had a little baby shower for Stephanie and baby Alyssa Grace.

Yes, they finally gave her a middle name 2 days ago. Isabel is thrilled because thats her middle name too.

We had cake, finger sandwiches, fruit salad, cookies, & juice.

We played a few games and Stephanie opened her gifts.

I was so glad that I took the time right before we came here to stop and get a baby gift in Seattle. The choices down here are very limited and expensive.

Addy, Grandma & I all worked together to put it on and we had it at Stephanie's house since she already had the baby.

I made a cake that looked like a baby carriage, and wouldn't you know the day that I'm icing it turns out to be the hottest day we've had in months!!

So needless to say after several trips to the freezer and refrigerator the cake was done and the icing was already starting to slide off. I did manage to get a picture of it before it all sort of melted. Today is nice and cool so far but I bet we are in for a warm day again.

We all had a nice time at the shower and little Jakob sure enjoyed entertaining us all. Stephanie's mom is here for the next couple months to help her out with the kids.

Baby Alyssa slept through the entire event with us ladies making noise and Jakob playing with his toys.
