Last Saturday we celebrated the new little addition to our family who is coming in Mid June of this year. Krista was gifted so many beautiful baby things and Caroline Ann will be adorable in all of the sweet baby girl clothes she was given! Here are a few highlights from the party.
Our decorations included one that has been used before in our home, Alexa’s dress model was put to ‘work’ again in a pretty dressed and Nanny Brie made a pretty pink baby rattle inspired by an idea we found on Pinterest. She sure is crafty and so sweet to boot! The baby stroller and Moses basket were from me and Pop.
These are a few of the other gifts we got them, all of the monogramming was done by Brooke C. LeBlanc. She did an amazing job and was so quick and everything turned out beautifully!
Here are some of the decorations and a few ultrasound photos of Caroline Ann! Big sister to be, Kali created the welcome sign and sign in sheet, she’s such a big help!
Once again, my cousin Dallas, of Dallas Florists of Broussard put together our lovely floral arrangements. After finding ideas on sewing/making gifts on Pinterest I was inspired to make a bow holder and some lovely little drawstring bags for Krista. Her bows will always be handy and inside each of the five bags are a few diapers, wipes, sunscreen, diaper rash meds and q-tips. Its easy to grab and go for the busy mother on the run.
Inside the Moses basket were a few dresses and other assorted baby items.
We also had to have a few LSU outfits monogrammed to honor Krista’s alma mater and Zach’s favorite college football team! They’re laid out in a sweet little rocking seat that I have for the baby at our home. Can’t wait to see our little Caroline in it!
I found this pretty cross stitched, framed art at a local antique mall and thought it would look sweet in Caroline’s nursery.
Inside the baby crib in my office I have a few more sweet outfits for Caroline and a monogrammed pillow and toile blanket.
Krista’s best friend and Caroline’s Nanny, Brie made a diaper cake and pretty gift basket filled to the brim with baby goodies!
Krista got so many pretty and useful gifts, she’s so grateful to her friends and our families for making this precious time in their lives memorable and amazing!
Kali was such a big help to Mama while opening gifts, she helped Taunte Brie remember everything to write down in the Thank You book too. Our home was filled to the brim with wonderful baby gifts. There was a touch of pink everywhere!
