what's better than a week at the beach? getting adorable gifts for your baby at the beach! that's what! david's mom and sisters threw me a beautiful baby shower during their family reunion at pacific beach with all his aunts and cousins. they were all very generous and I'm so grateful to have such cute things to wrap, dress, clean, feed and cuddle my baby in when he comes! the shower was altogether wonderful to every detail. proof:
let’s start with those adorable mini cupcakes beth made you already saw and these adorable whale cookies as a thank you.
then this delicious chocolate cake from extraordinary desserts (an amazing dessert place in hillcrest).
david's mom made lemon chiffon tarts with fresh berries on top. they were beautiful and delicious!
like I said, all his aunts and cousins came. so nice.
and they got me presents – and who doesn’t like presents?
and I was very excited (my face is priceless).
and I am grateful. chubby with a funky haircut . . . but grateful.

that shower was divine. I'm still dreaming about that creme brulee cake...the lighting was naturally perfect for the shower, too--sunset-y and warm. I can't wait to see Little Man dressed up in some of his darling duds.
