Dr. Brayer always throws fun thoughtful baby showers for her employees.

Did you know that we have had about at least two babies born each year? Some of our patients joke that they are afraid to drink our water! Dr. Brayer had 3 of the beautiful babies herself. She was pregnant along with Tiffany for their first two babies but then had her third right away whereas Tiffany was pacing herself. Tiffany had her 3rd then 4th babies a little later. So this was the 4th baby shower that Dr. Brayer has put on for her hygienist, Tiffany. Because April was a busy month for everyone, we decided to combine the Save the Face Race oral cancer 5K's office outing with the baby shower. Tiffany did not need a fancy shower since this was not her first baby. Dr. Brayer kept her tradition of including all of the families of our employees in our celebrations so many of the kids stayed after our walk for oral cancer. After the 5K on the beautiful Pass-A-Grille beach, we walked over to the pavilion, Paradise Grill.

Some of us changed clothes, but we were all still hot and sweaty, but that's okay since we were out on the beach! *added for this blog:* Nathan and Allison and their daughter were at the beach so they watched the boys for me. I told Steven who was on his way home from working over time. He surprised us and showed up at the beach too! How cool!

We opened presents first, actually! Some of our husbands and kids played in the cool water and in the sand.

This would be Tiffany's first girl so she got a lot of dresses...

And she got lots of pink things!

Of course she needs diapers. Thanks Dr. and Mrs. Nguyen!

Dr. Brayer got Tiffany a whole tooth fairy kit complete with a little place for each baby tooth to be stored.

We waited until the beach restaurant started serving lunch before Dr. Brayer bought us our delicious meals.

Here is Tiffany with her husband and 3 boys. The came up from the water for a bite to eat before heading home for Tyler's nap and before Tiffany's other baby shower that Barbie threw!

Tiffany had not yet decided her baby's name would be Julia, so Dr. Brayer got a pink cake with no name. It was yummy!!

Then as party favors, she got each of her employees the little dials to store their kids' baby teeth too! She gave one per child (So Tiffany got 4 total, for example.) Such an amazing party favor!

The charity run then the baby shower made for a long morning/afternoon! But it feels so good to raise awareness for oral cancer then to shower our employee of 8 years with girly baby gifts:)
