pammy’s beautiful baby shower

i was so excited to be celebrating pam & baby d at her wonderful baby shower!

it was held at d.o.c. wine bar in lombard! i headed out to the burbs to drop off olive at my parent’s house. my sister thuy so kindly volunteered to watch her. after dropping her off, i was off to the shower! silly me, i must still have baby brain ’cause i totally thought the shower started at noon! nope, it was 11:30! whoops! i walked in and lunch was already being served! i thought…wow, they were quick to serve the food. little did i know that i was totally late!

anyhoo, i was delighted to see all the girls! i said hello to pam and greeted all the ladies! i grabbed some grub and sat down to mingle with some peeps i haven’t seen in awhile. once i noshed on some tasty morsels, i walked around to take in all the decor. it was so cute! carol couldn’t make the shower but she helped out by making a majority of the decor!

after lunch, pam started to open up all the beautiful gifts. baby stuff is always so cute. every ooh’d and ahh’d over all the cuteness! while she was opening up all her wonderful gifts, they served the delicious cake. i have only have one complaint…my slice was not big enough! i could have eaten the whole top layer. 😉

during the opening of gifts, ryan, the hubby, made his appearance. the braun always has to come near the end to muscle all the gifts to the car!

after pampers was done opening all her presents, i mingled some more with the other guests. caught up with some folks i haven’t seen in a bit and finally decided it was time to go. as usual, i always want to get home to the babes! i’m always missing her!
