Sara's book themed baby shower

Natassha, my mom and I threw Sara a book themed baby shower.  Instead of the usual card that accompanies the gift, we asked each guest to bring a book, perhaps their favorite, and inscribe it with a note. 

 

Dr. Seuss Cake

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs Meatballs

If you give a Mouse a Cookie, cookie dip

The Hungry Hungry Caterpiller, melon kabobs

If you give a Cat a Cupcake, Cupcakes

Green Eggs and Ham, deviled Eggs

Peter Rabbit, veggie tray

Strega Nona, Pasta Salad, with no pasta

Dragons love Tacos, mini Tacos

Are you My mother, birds nests

James and the Giant Peach, peach punch

The Lorax, cake pops for favors

Bookmarks as favors
The quote reads
Children are made readers on the laps of their parents

As a way for guests to sign in, I had each of them pick the date they though the baby would be born.
**Update, no one won!  His expected delivery date was 6/12/15, but Spencer didn't arrive until 6/22!

Josh and Mommy time

Because Josh and Caitlyn go to school in different STATES, their spring breaks are not the same.  Josh only had a few hours alone with me, and of course I had a few errands to run.  We did get to stop at the Lego store for him to play for a bit.  

Here are both sides of his creation.

Caitlyn's new gymnastics class

though it took her 3 classes and a promise of a cookie, she finally started participating.  And her teacher could see why I was so frustrated she wouldn't participate: she's really good!

Jared's birthday

A quick trip to Home Depot turned in to craft time with their first Saturday of the month art projects.

Sony Wonder Lab

With the day off from school, we headed downtown to the FREE Sony Wonder Lab to play and explore.
