Once upon a time there was a centerpiece cake made out of diapers and baby items, and favors for each guest....
.......... and fun balloon decorations......
.........and a table full of many wonderful presents .......
........and another table full of delicious food ...........
.........and cupcakes for dessert!
Many friends, coworkers, and family members came over to spend the afternoon....
.....to honor this very excited young couple.....
....who had begun preparations for a very happy nursery to welcome their baby boy to be........
...............and their story will continue when the BIG DAY arrives........maybe late November or early December............... and this grandma to be will make the joyous announcement all around blog land ......... and a new chapter for a precious new life will begin!

Dearest Pat, I have never been to a baby shower before and this one is just fantastic. It looks so much fun but most importantly, there's so much love waiting for the baby boy. Now, i am as excited as you, big hugs :D
Pat,

Beautiful shower, happy parents to be, and gushing with excitment Grandparents!! You'll have the best holiday season ever!
I'm sure glad it wasn't cool for the husband to attend the baby shower when my wife and I were expecting.........LOL
How precious Pat, I am so excited for you all, cannot wait for the announcement, I agree with Marie what a wonderful christmas you will all have, big hugs, Kathy.
ps I love the nursery.
Beautiful, marvellous,
I am as exited as you are, Baby showers are not as famous on this side of the pond as they are in America. Your daughter in law and son had a marvellous afternoon, I am glad for them and for you.
You will be a wonderful grandma! :)
Soooo exciting, Pat!! The happiness and good cheer and anticipation just oozes from this post--lovely! The parts looks like it was such fun--what wonderful themes, food and gifts...and what delight to get a glimpse of Baby Boy's room...sooo sweet! And such fun to see the expectant parents. Happy Days to you all as you count down the days! ;o) ((BIG HUGS))
Oh...that was a good story Grandma! I can't wait to hear the one about the day the little boy was born:D
Great to have you home again!
Looks as if a wonderful time was enjoyed by all...
What a sweet nursery your son and his wife have prepared for their new baby.
Happy times!

I love wonderful stories - especially when they involve a favorite grandmother-in-waiting.
The shower is perfect, the expectant parents are perfect, the nursery is perfect. And, time is drawing nigh.
And, by the way, your son is a cutie.
Oh Pat what a beautiful baby shower...everything was so pretty....I know the proud parents to be just loved it! Hope you are having a great week sweetie!
Pat, what a wonderful shower! Great decorations, delicious looking food, adorable couple, such a sweet nursery! I am so happy for you and I know you can't wait to hold that little cuter! Have they named him yet? When Avery was born I was walking on a cloud. This is such a special time in your life!
What a happy, pretty, handsome couple!
It looks like you had a wonderful baby shower! The nursery looks good to go...now all that's left to do is wait. We share in your joy...as you wait!

Oo Pat thanks for sharing this special time. The nursery is beautiful. I remember setting the cot up so I could make broiderie anglais bumpers for it and thinking "wow am I really going to be a mother". Such an exciting time for all the family. They look so happy.
The food looks wonderful too.
Hi Pat,
Your son and daughter in law make such a good looking couple! I am so excited for you, and can't wait to see the pictures of this baby!
Looks like the shower was a big success, and the nursery is adorable!
Glad you made it home safely!
Pat, your son and daughter in law are such a handsome pair. The baby's room is precious and it looks as though they received lots of nice gifts. All that is left is waiting for him to arrive. It won't be long!
Oh Pat, what a sweet sweet baby shower! I don't know how this post slipped by me. Everything looked perfect! and your handsome son and beautiful DIL are BOTH glowing as I'm sure you are too!! I'm so happy for your family Pat.
