We were so blessed that our dear friends wanted to throw Jonny a shower to celebrate his birth and adoption. My friends and I usually plan these things together (we call ourselves the Pom Pom Committee) and it was incredible to see them plan this shower to be everything I could have ever dreamed it to be- perfectly me, perfect for Jonny!
Their inspiration for the color theme came from our nursery which is grey and yellow with some superhero accents and chevron print (will post more on the nursery another time).

Favors:
Libby had close friends choose a few songs each and made a beautiful lullaby cd as a party favor. Each cd was in a sewn "quilt square" to match Jonny's quilt. How sweet and cute is that?
They also made "Dear Jonny" cards for guests to write a few wishes for Jonny. I just love these, and how wonderful for him to know how loved and cherished he is by so many!
