First, this is the before picture of the changing table. I have to praise Chris' handyman/woodworking abilities. He re-finished this piece of furniture so it would match the crib and dresser we bought, and I have to admit he did a fabulous job.
Doesn't it look like it is part of the set? (The little blanket in the shadow box is one of Chris' baby blankets.)
The crib with her bedding and the temporary holding place of most of her blankets
The crib with the little shelf that will probably house pictures of her cousins
Her dresser
The guest bed on the other side of the room
And, oh my goodness! Karen and Erin are the awesomest friends and planned a surprise baby shower for me! They told me it was going to be a week from last night, but it was really last night. It was really fun, and so many wonderful ladies celebrated with us. Everyone was so generous, and little Camille was again spoiled with some precious ensembles. Is it too early to call her a clothes horse (in a nice way, of course)? Thank you to all of you for coming and for the wonderful gifts! Here are some pics of the evening:
Really soft toy (Camille got some of the cutest lamb clothes, a towel, a bib, and this really cute toy. Isn't that appropriate since my first given name is Mary?)
Most of the Attendees
When will she come and how big will she be? (There were also signs around with titles of ABBA songs...these girls love a theme! :))
Whoo hoo! A Baby Bjorn!
Cute red dress

What a beautiful nursery! I want to come over and visit...you look so dang cute, bytheway. And what a fun surprise shower.
Such a cute nursery!! I love the name Camille and can't wait to meet her. Also you will love the baby bjorn!!! It is such a life saver.
Ally! I'm so happy for you. It is all so exciting and I wish I lived "right upstairs" from you (well, not really---your house beats the Wyview apartments!) to share in all of this. Her nursery is gorgeous and I love her name.
I LOVE the name Camille. Excellent choice. Nice work on the nursery furniture, Chris! I'm excited to see what this little Chris/Ally combo person looks like. It's getting so close!
nice work Chris, that baby room is so adorable Ally, how nice to have it all ready and done!! What a great shower, you are going to love your bjorn, it's one of the best things I ever bought when I had Syd!!
HI!!!! We are really excited for you guys!!!! The nursery gear is really cute! You are looking really well too! Keep all the positive energy and best wishes from us on the underside of the planet!
The nursery is so cute! My friend just had a baby a month ago, and named her Camille. I love it! It's a great name. The baby shower looks so fun! Can't wait to see little Camille!

Sorry I couldn't make it to your surprise shower. I wasn't feeling well. I am glad you had such a large turnout and that it was fun. I will definitely be out to see you after Camille makes her presence. Hope you are feeling well.
Cute baby furniture! Chris did an awesome job with the changing table. Could he come refinish a dresser for me now? And I absolutely love the name Camille!
Ally... Camille Corrinne would have been nice, but Blair is beautiful too!!! The Nursery looks great... you guys are all ready :) Can't wait to hear the news...
Cute! Wish I could have been there! I had no hubby with me so I was out of luck. I am so glad you had fun and Miss Camille received some really beautiful clothes. I can't wait to meet her! We can hang out and gaze at our babies while Zach is in school! I really do that sometimes. Seriously.
I love the red dress the best! I have one VERY similar to that hanging in Victoria's closet :)
