Baby Shower Fashion Faux Pas

I contradict myself: In one post I write how picky I am about everything being perfect and then I go and do what I consider a FASHION FAUX PAS!! I wore {and was photographed} in the same outfit TWICE! Oh the Horror! {on a side note - I must have helped keep Rent the Runway in business last year!}

Anyways, back in 2008, I found this great Alice & Olivia tunic/dress (!?) for my babyshower with Nicky. I loved it. It was blue. It was cute. It was strapless. It hid my belly well. haha.

Fast forward 3 years later - 3rd baby, 2nd shower, what to wear?  After searching unsuccessfully for another suitable outfit for my shower for Luke, I settled on my old standby and Vinatge (can I call it Vintage?) A&O tunic.

Some things I notice - How adorable is my mom and sister?? :) And apparently 3 years ago I parted my bangs on the other side :) I will not discuss lack of a tan, my puffy face, and larger belly...

The Last Hurrah!

A couple months ago I received the cutest invitation in my mail - it was for my very own "last hurrah".
It's hard to agree to a baby shower for a THIRD baby, but my friends {and Mom} insisted. I am so glad I agreed! Just look at how cute my Red and Blue Tricycle themed baby shower turned out. Not only did my friends go all out, they made it very special by having a Onsie-Making station, Luke's first Tricycle {which Nicky now thinks is his}the custom sugar cookie favors by Lacey, and Tara the consummate party planner, who made all the decorations herself...including the floral centerpieces.

It was really fun to have an afternoon with all my friends in Austin and celebrate Luke's future arrival. He is for sure going to be the best dressed baby boy! Thank you again to Tara, Stacie, Lacey, Tricia, Valerie, and my mom. You guys are truly special friends...and a special Thank You to Kendall of Fat Cat Bakery who made some homemade treats to share!
To all the ladies that attended...thank YOU for all the special gifts for Luke. I am off to write my Thank You cards! Finally :) xoxox
