First Baby Shower {Plus “Binkie” Cupcakes}

September 14, 2010 by Morgan

My mother-in-law threw my first baby shower this past weekend in her hometown of Tempe, Arizona. It was so neat to catch up with all of our Arizona family & friends!

Plus she decorated the cutest cupcakes that I hope to copy and try out for a future shower. “Binkie” cupcakes look like little pacifiers! I’m pretty sure they were made from nello candies and gummy lifesavers…

The weekend was full of special treasures like a hand-crocheted blanket from our first-time great grandma, fun games by the MIL and delicious food all around.

    Thanks everyone for your comments!! The ‘baby bump’ has arrived (ha, overnight!) and it’s been a crazy past few months.

    The cupcakes are so cute! And I’m sure you had a great time at your first baby shower…i’m just wondering, how many will you have? :)

      Oh that’s a wonderful question! Kevin and I each come from a big family (5 kids on each side) and I’d say we might average out at 3 or 4. That’s the not-yet-a-momma-to-a-toddler answer :).

    Looks like fun!
