Sisterchicks For Hire

I had my first baby shower last week! It was so fun. I love baby showers. And wedding showers. And parties of any kind. You know I’m a little freaked when it comes to themes. And this shower was no exception!

It was a joint shower with one of my sisterchicks, Mandi. Who is due…any minute. Actually, she’s due the first of September and I’m due the last. She has a son who is a few months older than Lydia and this new baby is going to be a girl. Exact opposite of me! (And perfectly aligned to marry when they grow up!)

So, we did a purple & blue polka dot shower. Mandi’s nursery is purple polka dots and mine is will be blue with circles. So, it was perfect! Everything was purple & blue.

We each got a diaper cake in our color…

for the baby girl look at the pirate sword on mine!

Instead of a guestbook, the guests signed in for Mandi in the front cover of this kids’ book…

i think my blog is kinda purplicious...

While they signed this for my pirate and me…

yo ho. yo ho.

(Isn’t that a great keepsake? I LOVE IT!)

Staci made her famous cupcakes in purple & blue…

seriously. yummy.

We had mini cheesecakes (not purple or blue, but at least round!), some delicious mini black bean burgers in mini english muffins (that were made from wheat that Mandi’s sil ground herself!) and of course, some purple and blue cookies courtesy of Kristen

i want one now.

My favorite food though, was the purple & blue M&M’s. The blue ones said Baby OhAmanda and the purple ones said Baby Mandi. Well, really, it had our last names, but you know what I mean…

love me some M&Ms

So, would you hire us to do your next baby shower? I mean, really? How cute are we?

(Thank you to my sisterchicks and their families for such an amazing shower. I love love love you! And a big shout out to Rebekah, Mandi’s sil, my natural skin-care guru, and an un-official sisterchick who also hosted the shower!)

What an awesome party- if I ever have a girl, I want a purple party! Do you host in other states too?

How cute! It looks like you had a great time. I can’t have any more babies, but can you do the girl’s party in January? LOL

So sweet! Looks like the perfect purple and blue time!

Sorry, all done with baby showers here, but if I know anyone, I’ll be sending them your way for sure.
