So in Chinese culture it is customary to do a party/gathering when the baby is one month old. I'm trying to get as much done as possible (can't get it all done of course because I don't know when she'll get here so who knows what day we'll end up having the get together) but am getting what I can done.

Here's a preview of what the inside of the invites will say (we bought cards with a bouquet of flowers on them that says "An Invitation" on front in pink lettering.

A new baby is like the beginning
of all things: wonder, hope,
a dream of possibilities.

Please join us for a barbecue &
Welcome Hannah to the world
