Cailin's Baby Shower

My darling friend Cailin had her baby shower this weekend and although I wasn't able to fly to Boston to be there I've been anticipating it for weeks. I shopped and shopped for the perfect gift and eventually settled on a few things... and I didn't follow the registry which I hope she doesn't hate me for! I made sure that everything was packaged up and on it's way across the country in time for her to open at the party. I'm so sad I couldn't be there but Cailin's gracious hostess, Diana, was kind enough to take pictures so I could at least pretend I was there...

 It's hard sometimes when you have good friends who live so far away, and it's difficult not to be a part of the day-to-day moments. But we do the best we can and with a little effort we are able to close the distance between us. And it looks like Cailin had an absolutely amazing party and got some fantastic gifts!
Reading my card...

And opening my gift...

Wow, she looks super excited... a success!

Sophie Giraffe, "the world's most famous baby teething toy"

Baby must be as stylish as Momma...

Snuggle blanket and receiving blankets... PURPLE, not pink!
I can't wait to meet Little Miss Charlie!
