Project Baby Shower!

On July 18th, Tony and I headed down to my parents' house on Long Island for a wonderful Teddy Bear Baby Shower Extravaganza! Our family and friends did an incredible job spoiling this little one with wonderful gifts and showering me with loads of love, support and advice. I definitely felt ready for the big day!


The diaper cake my Mom made was a perfect
centerpiece for the Teddy Bear themed party!

Here I am in my "Mommie-to-be throne".
I loved the cute cloth-line decor my Mom put
together above the mantle!
We had lots of yummie, healthy food -
including my favorite, shrimp cocktail -
thanks Aunt Barbara!
We also played fun baby shower games. Here my
Grandmother measures ribbon to guess
the circumference of my belly! My fashionista
clothing designer friend Jen won - figures!!
Posing with "Tiz" (our in-utero name for the baby)
The awesome lunch spread - complete with
teddy bear shaped sandwiches, a variety of salads,
and quiches - all made by my amazing mother!
Me and my pseudo-sis, Jen.
Me and my Rhody friend Natascha (she came all the way down
from RI with her husband and 2 yr old daughter to celebrate with us!)
Yea, Leitners!
The Family after a great day!
(While the ladies were partying at my parents' house,
the men "showered" Tony with burgers & beers at my grandparents' house : )
The incredible loot we walked away with -
thanks to everyone for their extreme generosity!!!! 
Tiz will be soooo spoiled : )
