Lauren’s Baby Shower

Last weekend, I flew up to Chicago (third time in 6 months!) for my sister’s baby shower. It was the first time I had been back at Medinah Country Club since her wedding in 2009 and also seen most of her friends. I was not involved in the planning or decorating, so all I had to do was show up, talk to folks and eat some of this yummy cake. Easy!

the monkey theme was well used in this baby shower

While it’s a little surreal seeing my younger sister 33 weeks pregnant,  I cannot wait to meet the little girl in July. You can see the rest of the photos from the shower on Flickr. Congratulations, sis!
