Only one thing missing...

Unfortunately, my mother became very ill just a few days prior to the baby shower and was hospitalized during my entire visit (and a few weeks after that too!).  We had her on speakerphone as my sister and brother-in-law cut open the gender reveal cake so that she could hear everyone's reactions.  My sister also gave her the actual envelope from her doctor with the gender reveal photo so she could open it at the same time of the cake cutting.  Afterwards, I saved some of the party "goodies" and brought up everything to the hospital for her (and the ICU staff) to enjoy in the celebration.  Here's some photos :-)
