Baby Shower given by Mandy and Michelle

My sister-in-law, Mandy, and her mother, Michelle gave me an AMAZING baby shower this past Saturday. The theme was lambs and they did a wonderful job bringing in the colors of Caleb's room, including so many special touches in the decor.
This is the lamb diaper cake... isn't it so cute!

The food was great!
My favorites were the hot ham and cheese sandwiches and the delicious petit fours.
In the center of the table, Mandy and Michelle used this beautiful fabric that they found that matches Caleb's bedding that Mom is making. They let me have it for the baby's room, to add some accent pieces like pillows. I was so excited to be able to have another coordinating fabric for Caleb's room, especially since we were having a difficult time finding fabrics to match.



I have always loved lambs for their spiritual significance, and one day I saw a canvas in a store that read "The Lord is my Shepherd". Once I decided to add lambs to Caleb's room as accents, Mandy and I decided to paint some canvases together for his room. These are the canvases we did below.

As a special surprise, Mandy painted me this frame for Caleb's room to match the canvases we did. Isn't it just precious? She did an amazing job!!! Thank you Aunt Mandy!

For shower favors, Mandy and Michelle made chocolate suckers in the shape of lambs - another precious detail that made this shower so perfect!

Mandy planned some special games for us to play - here everyone is smelling and tasting baby food trying to guess the flavor.


All of my wonderful gifts - Thank you to everyone for blessing me and Caleb so generously with such thoughtful presents!
