when your daughter's teacher is pregnant...

you throw her a baby shower!!  a very simple, yet sweet and special party for all her students to truly show how excited they were about baby tyler.  ms. pattillo has been pregnant for the entire school year and due right as school is getting out.  SOOOOO, her students have watched her belly grow and have truly fallen in love with the sweet little boy growing inside her.  i was so happy that she allowed us to celebrate her and baby tyler.

you also totally forget your camera so you have very few pictures and the ones you do have are taken with your iPhone...

tableclothes+ set tables+ simple centerpieces+ some bunting= the classroom turned baby shower.

food table, minus the cake and a few gifts for the special mama-to-be

ms. pattillo about to read the book of predictions about tyler's weight, height, eye color, hair color, how many bottles he will take, how many diapers he will use in a day. etc.  the kids were so excited for her to read their predictions.

then it was present time!!  the kids each brought small "essentials" and we made a big basket for baby tyler.  they would all point out which items they brought as she pulled them out.  so cute!! :)

but the memories of that special afternoon in may are priceless and couldn't have been captured anyway.  the book of predictions made by each of the kids had us all laughing.  and i am confident that ms. pattillo is living by all the advice that her students wrote and illustrated.  ha! :)

most of all, when your daughter's teacher is pregnant you throw her a baby shower and hope that she feels loved.

 of course she took much better pictures.  you can check out her blog and get her take on the celebration.
