You all know Ben and Debbie, right? So you know that they decided to be too cool for school and ditched Iowa for Alaska a few months ago. Well, they are expecting their first kid in less than a month...July 17th! Today, their moms decided to throw an online baby shower for them since most of us just can't pack up and head to Alaska for the day. Well, we decided to have a baby shower in their honor last night with a few friends...complete with games! lol Weird, right? A baby shower without the mom-to-be in attendance?
So, Ben and Debbie - this one's for you! We all hope that you have a wonderful baby shower today, complete with lots of emails and phone calls from all those who love you. We all miss you and wish you the best of luck for these last few weeks as a family of 2, and even more luck when you welcome little Kiera (am I right...?!) into the wonderful tundra of Alaska. :) Hope you received the gift from the 6 of us (gmail) and are able to get a few necessities before your little one arrives.
lots of love - Nic, Kier, Joe, Laurie, Emma & Elyse
Guess how round Debbie's belly is!
I think I might have won...unless your tummy is really this round,
But I am pretty sure that Elyse had the most fun playing this game.
Next up - the "guess what kind of candy bar is melted into this diaper to look like poop..." game. (Nic wanted me to ensure you all know that this truly is just a melted Hershey's bar, and not a real poopy diaper, although it was suggested by Joe that we just use the 'real thing'.)
I think this was the first (and probably only) baby shower Nic has attended. Lucky him.
Looking at all the stars.
Elyse - still a happy baby...for about the next five minutes.
No bonfire/baby shower is complete without some guitar.
Laurie's friends came down to visit for the night! Lucky them..."what? you guys are having a fake baby shower? You guys are weird..."
Look - Elyse is not crying!
Too many baby shower games for Elyse and Joe...time to go.
