I had a baby shower at work today and it was wonderful. The food was really great, a potluck with foods varying from buffalo chicken dip to pasta salad with feta.
The cake was great too. Look a little familiar, though? Yeah, I think it’s the same kind as our first shower, but when something is as tasty as this cake, you don’t complain that the decorations are similar. (If you can’t quite decipher the yellow frosting, it says “Congratulations Christie and Best Wishes with your baby boy”)
The decorations were sweet and included this awesome balloon. My friend thought I should detach the umbrella and use it in the afternoon rainstorm we had today.
The gift situation at this shower expressed the extreme generosity of my coworkers. There were lots of prizes, many of them things that were considered “big” items on my registry and I was excited (and a little relieved) to have them checked off the list.
We received the travel system, pack-n-play, swing, and plenty of other items, like diapers, wipes, onesies, bath sets, and an absolutely adorable stuffed penguin named Petey.
I am so thankful for the place I work and the people I work with. Not just because they are so generous in their gift giving, but because their support and kindness is unmatched by many places of employment.
