i wanted to back-track a little bit and post photos from the chicago shower!
there are the hostesses!
delicious, delicious fruit!!
carrot cake cupcakes with pineapple cream cheese frosting. wow!
pasta salad, sandwiches, and ajvar!
izze, diet coke, & mimosa bar!!
totally caught in a hearty chuckle!
what a fun shower - we played "guess how big around devon is!" and even i got to guess, because i had NO idea! and then the girls all made baby names from the letters in patrick allen larkin and devon lorraine nunes. actually i can't remember if it was my maiden name or larkin, but i was amazed by how many names you can make from our letters. party favors included lotto tickets (baby's college fund) and lip gloss!!
boon grass countertop drying rack (from tiffany!):
when i opened up this one, elaine thought it was like a patio patch pee pad for puppies, but maybe for babies instead. yep, we're going to potty train our baby, on fake grass! i was dying!

even katherine's momma sent along [ah-mazing] gifts for the baby!
thank you to everyone for celebrating and helping us prepare for our little girl!! the gifts from the shower are darling and generous and i wish i had pictures of each and every single one of them so i could gush all over again on the internet!

i love this necklace that is in all of your posts lately! and it will be perfect for after baby when you aren't feeling so cute and you can throw that on for a little flair.
and we have the boon drying rack and love it. declan isn't completely potty trained yet but that little rack has helped sooooo much!
where did all those tables and chairs come from? it's like christine and nikolai live amongst party furniture all the time!! what a terrific job, c & lena!
such a great shower, dev! you look amazing :)
