baby shower

I'm in the process of planning a baby shower for one of my best friends. She's a coworker and really struggled to get pregnant. She was my "doula" when Kid4 was born, and planned a lovely baby shower for me that I missed because Kid4 was born on the day of the baby shower (at the exact time the shower was supposed to start, how's that for punctual?). So of course I was thrilled to throw her a baby shower.

She's having a baby boy, and is a Harry Potter fanatic, so I thought very seriously about a HP-themed baby shower. Now, though, I'm thinking just straight up BOY. Blue decorations, diaper cake with blue accents, etc. I'm headed out today to buy the decorations and really can't wait. I think I'm more excited for her baby shower than I was for my own - she is going to be the best mom in the universe and this little boy is already so fantastically cherished and loved.
