This weekend my Mom and I threw a baby shower for my Sister. Remember these invitations? This baby craves ice cream and chocolate so we went with ice cream sundaes and ice cream floats. Baby was happy. I was happy too...and a little hyper from all the sugar.
The spread. I covered their wedding photo with tissue paper, too bad you can't iron tissue paper!
There were babies. After all, it was a baby shower.
Baby Logan
Baby Ben
Sandwiches and fruit cups
We decorated onesies with fabric and fabric glue. I'll go back and sew around everyone's...someday ;)
When I washed all 15 of the onesies my Husband opened the dryer and said "Did Jon and Kate plus 8 move in?
Happy crafters.
Those are the "we're not playing games at this shower" smiles ;)
Most creative onesie award goes to Bobbie!
Ben was all smiles, so long as Mommy was holding him!
My Mom, Moi, my Sister
You can tell we're related by the position of our hands.
Ice cream floats!
Salted caramel sauce favors
Sweet baby Logan finally finds his Mama
Award for most creative gift goes to Cammy...for the jaguar rug!
So many photo ops with a gift like this!

It looks amazing! That is such a cool idea - to have crafting and making onesies...I love that :)
What a cute shower! So creative! I hate games at showers so the onesie idea is awesome!
too, too cute!! love the theme!
AMAZING! you did such a great job, it all came together beautifully!
um, what you didn't want to double post? ;)
you did a great job! i love the salted caramel sauce idea (noted to make...like soon).
the folded pleats made for an interesting texture! it was so adorable. i love the onesie idea too.
you did awesome! good work, sister! PS i was just saying i hadn't seen a picture of the 3 of you in awhile...it's like i read into the past and it appeared in the future? okay, maybe not but i love it none the less! she looks great!!
I really want a jaguar rug!
What a fun day :)
I love it all! The doily garland. The lavendar tissue paper (and I think the folds make it look artsy) covering the wedding photo, the crafts, the favors. NICE JOB! I may need to feature you on my blog. Again. You go, girl.
Are the fruit cups hollowed out oranges?
Adorable! So Ava was the winning name - very sweet. Is it wrong to want a baby shower without the baby? I think they call that a bridal shower. I have been engaged too long and am becoming delirious - I will take any shower evidently. :)
PS - LOVE those cones with flowers. So original.
Happy Tuesday.
Beautiful baby shower, love the favors and the colors you used!
Well done Nikki! Looks like a great shower!! I really liked all the little details/touches you did to make it special for Katia! :)
Looks like the perfect baby shower! Love the idea of decorating onesies with fabric! And I'm now CRAVING an ice cream float! :)
xo! Lauren @ tickled.
This is awesome. I love the decorations and the sandwiches all wrapped up, how cute. The onesie is pretty hilarious!
i love the waffle cone bouquets, beautiful! you must have a very happy sister, you did a wonderful job hosting!
You throw such a perfect party! I love the idea of decorating white onesies. I can't believe your sister has already chosen a name...I would not commit to anything until Eli was acutally born.
great job! I am hosting one in two weeks and have not started planning at all!
THis is awesome on so many levels: Love the waffle cone flowers, clever! LOVE LOVE that thong onesie (thats what that is, right?), hilarious!
Thank you again for an amazing baby shower! I can't wait to see the finished onesies! I'm still enjoying the fruit salad & ice cream sundaes;)
What a beautiful shower....love the craft project. You can iron tissue paper.....very low heat and no steam; press several sheets at once.
Awwww, this looks like an amazing shower!! I love the feminine details and the flowers in the ice cream cones. SO CUTE!!
Such a sweet and pretty shower! That jaguar rug is adorable:-) xoxo
Ooh, I forgot my salted caramel! Have any more? :) You did a great job, Nikki! And I so loved catching up with you and your mom, too. Can't wait to meet your little niece!

The waffle cone vases, the baker's twine-tied sandwiches, the floats?!? Best baby shower EVER! Little Ava's not even born yet and already she has the coolest parties!
Absolutely lovely! Everything is so darling and whimsical. I'm not surprised that Diana knows how to iron tissue paper ;-) Hurray for mom and little Ava on the way -- beautiful name choice!
