Funny Babies

Since we are still without a child of our own, we have to entertain ourselves by watching others'. My brother is home from college this week for Christmas and the other night showed us how he spends his free time--searching for funny videos on YouTube. Here was my favorite that I just had to share:

Baby Showers, but no Baby!

It's true, the due date has come, but our little one hasn't. Instead of sitting and being sad, I thought I would take the extra time I have with the baby being on the inside and so easy to take care of to post! Who knows when I'll have the time or energy for posting once she actually comes out.

Anyway, I just wanted to show you the adorable cakes from the baby showers people were so nice to throw. This one below is from my coworkers, who actually created a bassinet for the top made out of ding dongs and twinkies. Isn't it so cute?!?! Who knew it would end up to serve as a great object lesson when we were asked to substitute teach the five year olds in church the next Sunday!!



Then at the Lacey shower, the all amazing and talented Jenn make a "cake" out of diapers and receiving blankets. If you aren't wowed enough just from this picture, please click on it and zoom in to see her impressive handiwork. I really hated taking it apart, but it turned into four whole shoeboxes worth of diapers!! Those are going to be needed (hopefully very soon).



My adorable niece Jadyn was more attracted to the flowers on the cake than the diapers and promptly requested they be used in her hair and proceeded to pose. I just had to share the cuteness!



Thanks to everyone who put so much effort into helping us get ready for the baby. Hopefully we will have some good news for you soon!
