And as we missed our chance to have a Baby Shower for Alicia before he was born we had one today, and it was so much fun! The X Man is such a cutie and behaved so well, being handed from visitor to visitor, all the loud lady chatting and poking and patting... he took it all in his stride! I made a paper bunting name banner for him which turned out really well! I attached it to some ribbon from o
ur Myer Gift Registry gifts! (Recycling... YAY!) The ribbon is so thick and luxurious, I shudder to think of all those uncrafty people who receive the gifts and throw out all the yards and yards of free ribbon! {throwing hands up in astonishment!} I also made some fun little "eat me" tags for the tiered cake stands and the candy jars (2 from our Wedding Candy Bar- hooray, second use!!)In true Kingman tradition we've all spent the last couple of days baking. Alicia made gorgeous cupcakes with X's on top and bananca cupcakes, Mum made her super moorish spinach triangles and mini quiches, Felicity 
made delicious gooey carrot cake and anzac biscuits and I made mini cupcakes and my ever-popular White Chocolate Chunk & Macadamia brownies. Plus we were supplemented by some Choc caramel slice and Marshmallow log from Alicia's MIL. Don't you wish you came? LOL! I know you do. There was so much food and I happily came home with a container of treats! The food table got a lot fuller than the top pic once all the food arrived, it looked just like a Mad Hatter's Tea Party!
Alicia is super sleek and fashionable so she had a black and white Alice in Wonderland theme for the party. Her bestie from work made all the awesome AIW inspired cardboard cutouts which must have taken her FOREVER! They were so fantastic! She made doorways with a pic from AIW stuck behind, running top hats, teapots with hearts cut out, playing cards etc! It was the coolest wall art! I was so happy cos Alicia said the Baby Shower was just what she wanted and everything looked so fabulous! YAY!! Success!

I seem to be rather pooped now though, and just fell asleep on the lounge and woke up with a tiny stream of drool populating the cushion I was leaning on. Hmmm... hope I'm not getting sick! It may have been Will's decebel 10 snooring coming from the bedroom that woke me though! Apparently I'm not the only tired one around here.Anyway, it must be bed time so here's a pic of Proud Daddy (who chose not to stick around for the day but managed to 
come back in time for the present opening and to finish off a whole bunch of sweet treats for us! LOL!) And of course Beautiful Mummy who doesn’t have a tummy at all again! What a stunner! And such a proud Mummy too! Congratulations Alicia and David, Xander is such a joy and we can't wait to see him grow into a gorgeous little man!

Yes I DO wish I was there! And I want some of your white choc chunk and macadamia brownies! Would you give me a copy of the recipe for that one?
I would love to see more photos from the baby shower! These ones look great! What a shame it wasn't on next weekend. :(
