I almost don't recognize the Woodside.
The "garland," a sweet clothesline of onesies for Mama-to-be to take home (full disclosure: Wal Mart, only $3.50 for all three!):

The food, healthy snacks and richer fare, with sandwiches cut into fourths and then skewered for presentation and tidiness purposes (how amazing is the china my grandmother gave me?):

Pretty little orzo salads, all in a row (some of my vegetarian guests don't eat fish, so I omitted the shrimp, but it stood on its own quite nicely and was one of the favorite menu items):

Favors—no one knew what craziness lurked inside (I love the blown-out window light in this one):

LSis had quite a haul:

including a kangaroo JLB lovingly toted all the way from Australia for baby Stella:

Someone brought a baby to a baby shower, which, in the case of this particular baby, was downright genius:

My paper chain:

I think MW really captured this beautifully, especially the texture of the metal tile:

and somehow managed to make my handwriting look legible:

but this is maybe my favorite—with its visible staples and 4-year-old construction methods, it still manages to look exactly like what it was, which was earnest effort:

And so completely worth it.

I would say that you and MW make quite a team. Do you hire out???

Thank you for the compliments! I have to admit, it's very easy to take pretty pictures when someone decorates as beautifully as you do!

I only know one MW . . . and I miss her dearly :o(. Is there another MW in your life other than the one I know about??
Beautiful decorating! The coolest baby shower decorations I've seen :o).
