Carla's Devereaux Shower

Mike's mom, Denise, gave Carla a wonderful shower. It was at the Rochester Community House in a beautifully decorated room.

 The first game involved finding items in your purse. Debbie Kerr and her daughter-in-law, Kim, watch their tablemate hunt and win the game.

 Jamie and her mom are enjoying the party with baby Evan. Carla drove Jamie to the hospital for the birth.

 Sweet Evan is only 5 weeks old and already enjoying his first baby shower.

 The table decorations and balloons were so pretty. Each lady received delicious cookies in baby shapes.

 Great-gramma to be, Elfriede, sat with Mike's gramma, Ruby. They had a wonderful time.

 Jenny (Mike's cousin) brought her baby, Jacob. He is only 2 months old. Carla's little one is going to have a lot of playmates.

Mike's cousin, Sara, Mike's sister, Nicki, and Carla are discussing the gift opening procedure.

 The buffet was delicious. We had chicken, homemade lasagna, green beans almondine and a ton of fresh fruit. I felt like I was back on the cruise.

 Gramma tried a little of everything, so did I.

 Carla can't wait to dig in. She is eating for two after all.

 A bit more of this....

 I think Denise is sneaking in a little Gramma practice. 

 Carla asked everyone to add their thumbprint and name to the tree (from the last shower).

 Mike's cousin, Kate, is trying to decide how big Carla's belly is. By the blue yarn, Kate decided it's going to be a boy.

 Just some of the wonderful presents Carla received...







 The baby bath is from Jenny...

 The wagon and duckie things are from Debbie and Kim Kerr.




 This is going to be the best dressed baby ever.




 Gramma and I gave her breastfeeding supplies, two bibs, and a pair of shoes for the trip home. It was a wonderful shower. Thanks, Denise.
