Babies, Babies, and more Babies!!

Don't worry... none of the babies are ours! But, lots of our friends are having them! So, I had a baby shower at our house a few weeks ago for my friend Tara, whose having a little girl. We had a pretty good turnout...

I realized that I didn't really even get a good picture of Tara, but this is her opening her gifts....

And this is a picture of a diaper cake that I made for her shower as a gift... it was my first attempt, but I guess it turned out okay!


Then, just a few weeks later, I went to another shower for my friend, Susan. She doesn't even look pregnant in this picture, but I promise she's due in just a few weeks!

They had an adorable theme of pink and brown polka dots for the shower... Susan is super-crafty and made her own diaper cake (which I have to admit, turned out better than mine!)

I actually decided to start making baby clothes for fun since so many of my friends were having babies! This is the first dress I made... and then I made several others after that, but forgot to take pictures of them before giving them away!
I actually made the cake for Susan's shower as well... and to make a long story short... I decided to start my own cake decorating busines... it's called "Sweet Cakes!" Wasn't sure if I would get a lot of business, but I put my first ad up on Friday and have already been contacted by at least a dozen people wanting to put in orders!... it's getting a little crazy!

And I just had to throw this picture in there... this is our friends baby, Aaron, and he has the most hilarious facial expressions... isn't this one funny?? I think his lip was just about to start quivering...
