We were honored with a second shower at Kelli’s house: a Jack-and-Jill cocktail party where the theme of the evening was to build the baby’s library. We got a ton of terrific books, ate very well (just look at this food!) —
— and had a fabulous time. The best part was getting the chance to hang out with all the girls at the same time.
Melanie came up with a cocktail, calling it the Diaper Dropper:
Way to go, Mel!
