Laurie's baby shower & Easter


My mom and I threw a baby shower for my sister-in-law Laurie in April just a few weeks before Virginia was born.

I had a lot of fun centering it around the "She's About to Pop!" theme



I had so much fun making this motorcycle diaper cake!


And this name sign for the baby nursery


It was kind of silly but I came up with an idea for a "pop-themed" game-- I filled the balloons with candy, and we had people write their guesses of the date and time when Laurie would give birth.  Then we threw darts at them to make them pop.

Another silly game we played was to see who could spit out a baby binky the farthest








The next day was Easter

Trip to Albuquerque & Baby Virginia!

This was the week of nieces!!

On Monday morning while I drove Chris to work we both received texts from my brother Nate that he and his wife Laurie were at the hospital.  Laurie had been in labor since the night before and it looked like little Virginia would be making her arrival that day.  I had a flight scheduled that afternoon to go to Albuquerque to visit my sister Mikey and my niece Mia.  Terrible timing!

As my plane took off I was able to look down into American Fork and i could actually see the hospital where they were.  I was so excited to be going to see Mia, but also bummed that I wouldn't be able to see Virginia as a brand newborn.

Virginia Kaye Page was born just as my flight landed in Albuquerque.





Even though I was sad I wasn't able to see Virginia in the hospital, I had a blast spending a week with Mikey and Mia!


We spent a day in Santa Fe




On Friday I flew home and met Virginia for the first time!
