Sprinkle time

This has been a crazy week and an even crazier weekend! Between work, the girls, Matt, and the constant vomiting from being pregnant, I didn't think I would ever get things done for my friends "sprinkle".
For anyone who doesn't know what a sprinkle is, it's basically a baby shower with a different name. It's suppose to be smaller, less fancy, etc, but that didn't happen here. The mom to be had a micro-premie about 3.5years ago so she wanted the whole shabang this time (which I guess is ok). She gave me about 30 people for the guest list and I had about 15 RSVP and she figured on a bout 5 more coming. I had tons of food! Here are pics from my phone which really are NOT that great...
Desserts were cake (of course), cookies, brownies, and iced sugar cookies in blue and silver. The colors for the shower were blue and silver. I rented out a room at IUS because of the number of guests invited and the fact I have a cat and she has a cat allergy.

And the "real" food. Ham and chicken salad on croissants, pasta salad, fruit salad, pretzels, and mints on the tables. It was a 2 o'clock shower so I didn't know what to make really. I wasn't really wanting to do a huge spread, but I think I still have enough food for an army!

The total number of guests that came was 11...yeah, a little off from the 20 we were expecting. And, of those 11, only 8 actually ate. Some only nibbled on a cookie or two so I literally have a TON of food left!

Oh well, my showers and MUST do things are now done for others. I'm going to take a little time and focus on me and my family for a while. I don't get too much "family" time and Matt is actually referring to me as a roommate now so I think I'll be taking a day off here and there to just do nothing but fun things...we'll see if that happens though.
