"little man" baby shower

this weekend my mom and i threw a "little man" themed baby shower 
for my sister ashley and her baby boy. 

i literally did not take any pictures (dunno why, so mad). so all of the pictures i am posting come from my sister or mom or someone else. :(

the games
my mom did a memory game (seen to the right of the chalk board) and if you got 2 matches you won a candy bar that went along with the match you found-- example: preemie= runts, epidural=life saver, daddy= mr. goodbar, etc... 

everyone got a bow tie to wear and they couldn't say the word "baby" or "belly" and if they did and someone heard them, they could steal their bow tie. the person with the most bow ties at the end won a prize.

i put together a baby themed relay race 
*the first leg-- you had to put together and take down a pack and play
*the second leg-- you had to change a baby dolls diaper 
*the third leg-- you had to eat a jar of baby food using only a baby spoon 
*the fourth leg-- you had to chug a baby bottle 
*the fifth leg-- you had to assemble a stroller and then race it to the finish line
  the losing team had to wear these fake mustaches for the rest of shower. they only ended up wearing them long enough to take a picture, but still ;)

we also played "guess who's mustache" and i didn't get any pictures of that. basically i printed off a bunch of famous mustaches and you had to see how many you could guess right and the winner got a prize. 

the food

we had sandwiches, chips, and "bow tie" pasta (to go along with the theme), and cupcakes for dessert. 

the gifts


lots of cute baby clothes, diapers, wipes, blankets, the usual.

thanks to everyone who came to the mustache bash and thanks to my co-host aka my mom :) 

we love you ashley and baby boy king (un-named for now :))
