A few weekends ago Jamie, Nikki and I hosted Kelly's baby shower at her mother-in-law's house, Mrs. Linda. Even before conception we've known we wanted to do a "bird/About to Hatch" shower theme! And finally, the day was here and everything turned out great!
Prepare for picture overload!
the front of the invitation
Mrs Linda made the pretty wreath for the door!
Linda is going to be called Birdie. And sweet little onesies to greet our guests.
Pretty table full of delicious food!
The pretty dessert table!
Nikki made the awesome diaper cake!
tarts, macaroons, Crave cupcakes and bird house sugar cookies!
After some practice and finding the best baby's breath I could, this was the end result!
And yep, that's the baby's name.
Kendall Marie daSilva.
She and Kelly have the same middle name and initials. Love that!
The sign in table.
Everyone grab your clothespin!
Everyone wrote inspirational and funny messages on diapers for Kelly and Jason to read/get a laugh from during those 3am diaper changes.
Pretty favors. Egg shaped soaps.
Mrs. Linda can sure arrange a floral arrangement! LOVED the pink peonies.
The Mama to Be sipped on some sparkling cider and Pelligrino with lime.
Kelly with Birdie, Nini and Grandma
So glad Danielle and Sara came in for the shower!
Hostesses with the happy mommy!
Kelly and her mom Tina, going to be called Nina.
With some daSilva's
ok, seriously, is she not the cutest pregnant person!?
Kelly, Birdie and Granny Shirley
All of Kelly and Kendall's gifts!
One of Devoni's gifts was this penguin book. Jason and Kelly love penguins!
Mrs. Linda got Kelly her hospital bag and filled it with goodies including these little "My First Stuart Weitzman's" SO cute!
Kelly's really excited about Jason wearing this haha
Kelly's Mom got her this print from Restoration Hardware for Kendall's nursery.
Jamie, Nikki, Sarah, my mom and Nikki's mom all went in together for Kendall's gift.
My mom made her these burp cloths.
...and her car seat!!!!
Kelly gave us the prettiest Kate Spade bangle bracelet as a hostess gift. So sweet.
After the shower Kelly did the "necklace" test (similar to this one, except side to side means girl and circling means it's still thinking, when it stops you're done having kids, make sense?) on all of us girls. According to it, we are having 1 more baby. Another girl. Said the same when she did it on Danny last weekend....Kelly is a full believer in this test!
Jamie, Nikki and I all had so much fun getting together planning the shower, setting up and working to make this the best baby shower!
And a HUGE thanks to Mrs. Linda for opening up her beautiful home for us!
We are all so excited to finally get to meet baby Kendall...only 5 more weeks!
