Jessica AND Christi's Baby Showers!!!


So I finally decided that I would take Jessica up on her offer of throwing me a baby shower and within a day she decided that in fact she would like to take me up on my offer of throwing her a baby shower too! Jessica came up with the brilliant idea to do them the same day and go in on everything together (no sarcasm there really). I know that when I told many people that we were going to throw two showers the SAME day people were like "What? Are you crazy? You guys are both almost at full term and you guys are going to host each others showers and on the SAME DAY???" Well...yes! And it turned out great.

Funny thing was that we started getting similar reactions we got Freshman year at BYU together. When we first met during orientation our parents couldn't believe how much we looked like each other. Or when we'd do our grocery shopping at the Creamery on 9th the clerks would often ask us if we were sisters. And once again when people arrived (mostly for my shower) a few people asked us if we were sisters! Not by blood...but in heart I guess. :)

So when everyone first arrived we had them guess what day they think our babies would be born. And then they stamped the date with jessica's cute baby feet stamp. We'll see who is right and come up with a prize! :)
We also had them take Advice cards to fill out for us.
Once more people arrived we had them get their food.


Here is Jessica opening her presents. We decided to do Baby Bingo to help keep people occupied throughout the gift opening process.

Well it was a super fun day but I don't have time to finish typing everything up about it so I'll have to finish it later! But enjoy this in the meantime!

  1. Wow, so somehow I never added your blog to my "following" page and just thought you weren't updating it... so I just had a lot of catching up to do! I loved all the pictures, and we are working on guesses for Jaylee's birthday. :)
