Baby Shower ::: In honor of Robin Dini's Little Nugget!

:) Last weekend (I know... I know... I usually blog a LOT faster than this!) I had the ultimate honor of photographing my dear friend, the glowing, über-pregnant Robin Dini at her family's baby shower. Her mom had contacted me MONTHS ago about coming... the whole shower was a surprise!  It was nearly impossible to be at weddings with her this summer and not be able to rave about how much I adored her mother. =) For all she knew, we had never met!

Well, it all went swimmingly and she was thoroughly surprised. And her mom pulled off the whole day with the CUTEST little birdie details everywhere, at the Tradition Golf Club in Wallingford, CT.

Without further ado... a buncha photos since I know that's what everyone wants anyway! =)



















Can you stand it?!




Surprise!




Delish...




Mommy and Daddy... =) Awww!


The walrus was a BIG deal...




Are they not the cutest?


Of course, I have an obscene amount of photos of the gift unwrapping, but I had to pare it down to my favorites for the blog...








Why are these "portable sheets?" Aren't sheets by nature "portable"? =)


Look at this reaction.  Classic Dini.








Robin's mom made her an Olivia quilt... Incredible.






How à propos...


Behold, the Frankness.


And it wouldn't be a day spent with Robin without... a BOUQUET shot!!!! =) Het sister gave her this adorable little bouquet.



Thank you Dolly for including me in such a joyous celebration of such a wonderful mommy-to-be, someone I am so lucky to call my friend.  =)  XOXO
