Bumble of Joy

As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, this year is a year full of blessings in our family. Two weddings (mine and Meg’s) and two babies, one on Stephen’s side and one on Chris’s side, making us all aunts and uncles for the very first time! This weekend, we spent celebrating Chris’s brother and sister-in-law who are having a bouncing baby boy! On Saturday we had an all ladies baby shower and Sunday was a co-ed shindig that transitioned into a Super Bowl party. Needless to say, it was a busy and wonderful weekend spent showering the new parents with love!

Their last name is Blancato (as will Meg’s be in just two and a half months–ah!) So they went with the “B” and had it bee themed. The yellow, black and white made for the most lovely color pallet that Meg and I felt inspired to coordinate with it ourselves.

Feeling the little hiccups of the baby was possibly the highlight of the whole weekend!

Babies really are the best blessing. It’s the most incredible thing, the way they bring everyone together and manifest so much joy.

We are all so eager to meet you little one!
