Danielle's Baby Shower

There's Danielle. And Desi, her baby girl, is in her belly. Now Desi was born on May 30th healthy and happy, but you know how blog updates go. So here are the pics from my overnight away from my girl to attend my good friend Danielle's lovely shower in Miami.

There I am sans kid for the first time in a very long while.


And Danielle and her girls.
