Baby Shower

My friend Whitney is having a baby in June so last week I had a baby shower for her at our house. One of her favorite treats are the caramel apples that we made in relief society this year so I made up a batch of them for the party and they turned our pretty good!
 This is the diaper cake I made for her. I saved all of the rolled up diapers from the cake at my shower. It sure saved me a lot of time!
 Everything all set up just waiting for the guests to arrive.
 This is one of my friends that helped me throw the shower. Her little girl is just 3 weeks behind Lyza.
 The food table
 At Lyza's four month appointment the doctor told us that we are good to start introducing food to Lyza. We started her off with some rice cereal. This next picture pretty much sums up her thoughts on the experience :)
 By the next day she had warmed up to the idea and suddenly couldn't get enough of the stuff. She never wanted me to take the spoon out of her mouth.
 On Thursday we drove to Coeur D'alene to look for a place for the summer. We had only found 2 places to look at because it is so hard to find anyone that will do month to month lease. Once we got there we found out that one of the places we were suppose to look at had been rented out that morning so we only had 1 option. Luckily for us we were happy with our one option and we put down a deposit. We will be living in a little 2 bedroom apartment that it a 10 minute walk from Daniel's work! The apartment buildings are set up in the outline of a square and in the middle is a cute little courtyard with nice big trees and flowers. There is even a little patio with a grill that we can use. It will be nice to have a little outdoor area we can enjoy. It is such a relief to know where we will be living! Now we just need to move everything.
After we finished out paperwork we met up with Kevin at Cafe Rio for some dinner. Lyza had a lot of fun playing with her Uncle Kevin. We hung out there for a couple of hours and then came home.

Daniel had his last class as a first year law student yesterday! woohoo! He has 4 exams over the next 2 weeks and then has a week off before he starts his job. May will be a crazy and exciting month for us!

  2. Wow! Your baby shower looked spectacular! Did you feed Lyza potatoes because she is native to Idaho--the potato state?

    Love, Brenda
