Baby Shower Brunch

I promise that my life as a modern mommy consists of more than just party planning. Between Harper's birthday party and this baby shower brunch, the last few months were consumed with all things party. If I could turn this hobby into a profitable job, I would do it in an instant. I really love planning the party. I love finding tasty food ideas that go along with a theme. I love creating activities that will guests will remember and I love finding and making the party decorations.  However, when it comes to hosting or having to talk above a large group of people I usually depend on my husband to take the reins. In this case, my friend Jess was the one I leaned on for that. Jess, Katie and I were roommates in St. George while we went to Dixie State College. It seems like a thousand years ago, but whenever we get together it brings back all of the fun, care-free memories we had in college. Now it’s been a few years, we have all gotten married and are starting families. Katie is the third one to join our mommy club and we are all eagerly anticipating her baby girl’s arrival. A couple of weeks ago Jess and I, along with some help from Katie’s family, threw her a Baby Shower Brunch. Here are a few of the highlights.

 The menu consisted of yummy breakfast casseroles, mini cinnamon rolls, fruit and dip, muffins and some colorful doughnut holes.

We played a baby food guessing game. I was surprised how few people would actually try the baby food.

 

We asked each guest to sign the picture frame matte. They also each chose a letter of the alphabet and made a flashcard for the baby's ABC book. 

 

Guests each took home a hand sanitizer and friendly reminder to use it before holding Katie's baby.

It was a fun morning. Katie and her baby were showered with adorable clothes and other gifts. We can't wait for that little girl to get here! I'm sure Katie feels the same way!
