Getting Ready for Chicken Little
Tuesday, January 19, 2010 at 7:00AM In case you forgot, this is Wrigley-T and Senor Diamondback...
...And they are having a mini-Diamondback that we all know will be super cute and smart, with a lot of personality. Baby Diamondback is due in about a month, and the little one is known by a variety of names, sometimes "Chicken Jr" - mostly "Emmett the Otter":
...because that's what he looks like, you know. :)
This past weekend, our group of friends got together to throw a baby shower for the little guy! We went with a Chicken Little theme... a grown-up, co-ed evening party. There were mocktails and cocktails (Hey, we aren't ALL pregnant!)
Goober hosted the party at her house, and Colo and I helped... See, Mighty Goober's all ready to party!
And she runs for chocolate.
Before the party, several of us had a lil food prep to do... and pre-party wine to drink! Here's Colo getting the sausage wraps ready for their big debut (recipe to come!)
Chicken Little cupcakes waited in the wings...
Jammie toasts (our favorite!) had to make the menu, too!
Finally, guests began to ring the doorbell.
Goober runs a non-shoe household, which led to an array of fun socks.
We hung out -
We danced -
We ate, drank, and chatted a LOT!
Once we were properly fed and watered, gift time began!
There was lots of laughing...
...and clapping. We clap a lot.
At the end of the night, we decided to take a group photo since we were all dressed up and shiz. This is our little Chi-family...
...We clean up all right. :)
In exactly a month, come out Emmett the Otter - so we can meet you and give you kisses! We love your parents a whole lot, so I bet you'll be pretty awesome, too.
