Squidgy’s first party

Posted in Parties Tags: Baby, bloggirls, friends, party

Louisa had her babyshower today at her mom’s house, and it was like a tweet-up considering the number of bloggers and tweeters in attendance

And OMW the pile of gifts was quite something to behold and she got SO many clothes. Squidgy will be dressed in brand new outfits daily for at least the first 6 months of her life! I didn’t take very many photos, but here are a few that I just had to take

Angel made the most divine peanut butter flavoured cupcakes with chocolate icing for the occasion

How adorable is this babygrow? Philli_girl suggested that Louisa takes this one to the hospital

And the first recipient of a Bloggirls blanket, specially made by Laura’s mom!

And I can’t resist showing you this little munchkin… every time I pointed my camera in her direction she started grinning! It was so cute.

And my gift to Louisa… a voucher for a newborn session… my first attempt at voucher design and I think it’s pretty good!! Glad she liked the idea too, I was a little worried that I was a bit presumptuous about her wanting me to take Squidgy’s photos.

I will remember the voucher for a present idea! Might end wanting it for Logan and myself rather!

Hate that I missed this yesterday, but my sister was getting married.

I so love the pictures.

Jeanettte, I was really blown away by everyone’s generosity! The voucher is a brilliant idea. Of course I’d LOVE to have you take those photos for me (I was actually going to rattle my piggy bank to make it happen somehow anyway, so it’s PERFECT!).

You know, I can’t believe how blessed I am to have so many people in my life ready to welcome my daughter into the world – she is one lucky baby! I’m only sorry I didn’t get to chat more with everyone – the day felt like it just flew by between hellos and goodbyes.
