Friedman Family Baby Shower

So I know I'm behind, but that's because the holiday season gets a little crazy around here AND we're trying to get as much done before Maggie arrives as possible since we're pretty sure sleep deprivation and the sheer overwhelming-ness (good word) of being new parents will suck all of our brain cells out for a while after she's born. 


Anyway..... the Saturday after Thanksgiving my family threw a baby shower for little Maggie at my parents house. Check it out....

 Diaper Cake....yep, that's a tutu. 

The delicious cake Mom made. Watch out Cake Boss. (Its a bird. NOT a fish.)

Maggie Loot!

 Vanna....I mean Aunt Kate - better known as the Hostess with the Most-est along with Maggie's Grandma Shannon who refuses to be photographed.

The food was great. The company was fantastic. And the gifts were sweet and beyond generous. Maggie is a lucky lady!

Flammable Cows?

So, last week we were trying to get Maggie's giant mountain of baby paraphernalia organized - which meant opening countless plastic encased items and removing tons of those tiny plastic tags that never want to come off completely. 


As I was organizing the clothes in her closet by size (what? I've always been OCD) I came across a tag that makes me slightly nervous as a first time mom...


Not to mention completely curious as to why the manufacturer felt it was necessary to add this very large warning to such a small outfit....

Its an infant sleeper! With cute little frolicking cows and flowers on it! Somewhere on planet Earth was there at one time a parent who assumed those two characteristics make a child's garment flame retardant????

Evidently I have more to worry about than I thought,
