Baby Shower!

My youngest son's teacher had a baby this fall and we held a surprise shower for her with her class.  Each child donated $5.00 and we pooled the money together to buy favorite children's books.  I volunteered to make some cookies (of course!)

we didn't know if she was having a boy or girl, so I made pink and blue bows on the bears.

The kids also wrote down words of advice for the mom to be, and we hung them with clothes pins in the classroom as decoration.  Some great advice was given!!  8 and 9 year olds are very wise when it comes to new babies ;)
