Last Friday, shortly before our weekly Beer :30, my co-workers came together to throw me a baby shower, jhP style. Everyone had an adult beverage (I had a Diet Pepsi) while we played an anagram game using “Brandon & Alissa Sheley”. The jhP team showed off their creativity by coming up with baby names consisting of those letters. A few of my personal favorites: Badass Hellboy Sheley and Healy Sheley.
We enjoyed cupcakes made by Daddy Cakes, and I opened cards and gifts. Here again, the jhP team creativity was shining bright as my co-workers presented my “official baby shower card”. The front cover had my jhP headshot, the next flap had a headshot of Brandon and the inside of the card had a hybrid headhot of the two of us showing what the baby might look like … sort of along the lines of Conan O’Brien’s ‘If They Did It’ sketches. Let’s just say, their projected look of the baby included some facial hair… somewhat disturbing, but hilarious!
The most creative gift I received came from Kathy and Gary Jones and family (Gary is the founder and president of jhP). They put together a gift specifically for Brandon, called ‘Daddy’s Baby Gear’ tool belt. It was filled with all of the things Brandon will need to take care of the baby – rubber gloves, goggles, Febreeze, wipes, diapers, Tylenol Extra Strength … you name it, it was there. Very cool!
That is the coolest tool belt for Dads that I think we have ever seen! Too cute – trust me, he’s going to need every single piece of supplied equipment…..on day #1.
Congrats!
This a cute idea!
You should get this!!

That’s got to be the coolest baby stroller ever! I bet it cost a fortune, and leaves a lot of finger prints.
