Planning a Baby Shower!

We had organized a small baby shower function recently in our office for our dearest colleague and sister - Amrita Didi, who is now almost due for April with her first child.

In Nepal "baby shower" is popularly known as "Dahi Chiura" where mother-to-be is feed "Dahi & Chiura" (Curd & Beaten Rice) along with other varieties to have a safe delivery and healthy baby.

1. Baby Shower Invitation:

I created an invitation for the event via picmonkey. 

Guess Whooo is Almost Due...

2. Baby Shower Garland:

It is very pretty easy to make, I cut out the onesies from the paper, wrote letters on it and stuck the onesies on the rope.

3. Surprise#1: Pregnancy Announcement Tee:

We surprised her with the hand-painted pregnancy announcement t-shirt, as we could not find one.

I'm sure, seeing the baby in blue, everyone is guessing it's a boy! (But, we have to wait to find it out!) (Nevertheless, we are also guessing, it's a boy! lol)

4. Surprise#2: The Gift:

In the garden of Vrindavan where the River Yamuna passes through, Mother Yasodha holds baby Krishna into her protective arms, as charming and playful was he, since his childhood- his well wishers specially the Mothers and Gopinis always came in the service of Lord Krishna, some by offering flower garland, and the others playing musical instrument to celebrate his arrival. Even the parrots and peacocks arrive to have his one glance.

Another surprise was the gift also hand-painted by me. I made baby Krishna and Mother Yasodha, as it is believed, that it brings good luck and fortune to the family. 

Mother-To-Be : Happy Mom :)

We congratulate both the mom-to-be and dad-to-be!
