Boys Enjoy Showers Too

We had our first baby shower yesterday.  It was a co-ed shower and was thrown for us by our friends who live in our building.  They did a great job making it so everyone, boys and girls, would have a good time.  Casey loved it and even though he said it was "the wife’s shower,” I think he felt honored to be there – especially with his cute little “Dad to Be” medallion.

The shower was held at another friend’s house and their living space and dining room were all decked out with balloons, baby boy decorations, and even a few baby pictures of Casey and I.

There were awesome favors: small bottles of wine for the ladies, cigars for the gents (which they didn’t wait to take home), and mints for all.

The cake was really cute and very tasty – it had a layer of cheesecake-like filling that was so yummy!

We didn’t expect much for gifts and were just glad for the celebration, but we’re so thankful for the loot we received.  It makes it more and more real every time we bring something for the little guy into the house!

Although I am super excited for my “ladies-only” showers, I am  glad Casey got to experience some of the congratulations and celebration.  His friends are great and everyone is really excited for our bundle of boy!
