Birthday & a Baby Shower

This last weekend Tyler's sister, Dawna, had to work the graveyard shift. Her husband regularly works graveyard, which meant that they needed someone to watch their cute little girl. Luckily, we were available so we got to have a sleepover! Reese didn't get to our house 'til late Friday night, but we were still able to make some yummy cupcakes before bedtime. We asked her where she wanted to sleep (unfortunately we couldn't find the plug for our air mattress after the move :() so her options were limited. She chose to sleep with us which concerned me at first. Last time she slept with us, I quickly found out that she is a Kung Foo master in her sleep. I thought about her flailing arms and decided that she could sleep on the end instead of between me and Ty. And it was great. No arms to the face this time! It makes me happy that we still have our california king bed because all 3 of could fit our pillows no problem. It was a good thing that we all slept well because the next morning she had a basketball game. Tyler was nice enough to make us some french toast and then we hurried out the door to her Jr. Jazz game and to meet her parents. Oh my, it was hilarious. Watching 6-year-olds run around the court trying to dribble the ball and make baskets is wonderful.

After that we hurried home so that I could finish making the cupcakes that we needed for the night. Luckily Reese had helped me start them but I still had another batch to make! We were headed to Malad for my Grandpa Jensen's 80th Birthday party and my sisters baby shower. So I also threw together this cute little diaper cycle. I followed the tutorial that I found on Pinterest from this blog here
Yes, we had a little photo shoot. It just turned out sooo much better than I thought! The tutorial was awesome and saved me a lot of time too! We finally got to Malad and my grandpa was very surprised by the little party we threw him. We just had it at a restaurant in Malad called The Dude Ranch. It was pretty tasty--minus the fries, they were so so. But they were able to feed all of the family that showed up! 
Then we headed to my Aunt's house for the baby shower. Unfortunately my camera ran out of room on the card so I only got one picture :( And of course it's a blurry one. haha

 She got lots of cute stuff though! This was a quilt that my Aunt Kellianne made, it is amazing. Super super cute. I can't wait to meet my new cute little niece! While we were shopping for the motorcycle supplies at Wal Mart Tyler mentioned 2 things. First off, that it was the first time he had ever been in the baby section of wally world and that it made him nervous for days to come because everything is soo expensive. Secondly he said that he thought we would be making more visits to Lehi once little Corra comes along...he's right ;)
