I am almost ready to assemble these baby shower invitations to get them in the mail. I have 3 of THE most anal retentive friends look at them. It took a 4th anal retentive friend to notice that I misspelled “bundle” on the invite…they were just so darn cute that the typo was overseen!
Alas, I fixed it and will reprint this weekend. There will be no buddling at any baby shower I host!
