Catching Up - Part IV

A big impetus for going to Pittsburgh this Christmas (which was technically our "Florida year") was to help throw a baby shower for Deci, my brother's wife.  They're expecting a

in April and we're so super-excited for them!  (By the way, that is, of course, a Bethel Bakery cake. In my family, there's no other kind of cake. It's a Pittsburgh thing.)
The room in the restaurant was beautifully decorated for Christmas.

A table display we did.  It's a mini-diaper cake with pictures of Ryan and Deci when they were babies.

Here's another one.

For this one, I scanned the two school pictures in to my computer, uploaded them to this fun website, and created a picture of what their baby may look like.  They're calling him "Fu", which is short for a former Steelers player who complete name I can't even guess at spelling correctly.  So here's baby "Fu" with his parents.  They'll have to pull this picture out in a couple of years and see how close it actually is to what he really looks like.

Wouldn't be a Pittsburgh baby shower without some Steelers wear for the baby!

Even their dogs received bones to munch on and distract them from the attention the baby will get.

Aunt Heidi found a particularly appropriate frame to give to the new baby.

I think Baby Fu is pretty set.  Congratulations, Ryan and Deci!
