Shave or Suck In?

Every morning I have a dilemma. I can either shave my legs and wear a comfy dress/elastic waist skirt or spend my day sucking myself into a pair of tiny-around-the-waist pants. If I ruled the world, I would avoid both options and wear yoga pants. But, alas, I do not rule the world and yoga […]

Little Sprout Basics

If you are stopping by for the D-List Blog Party you can read my welcome post here. Leah and I had a memorable weekend searching for a very specific baby booty pattern. When I get something stuck in my head, there is no stopping me. Saturday, it was booties. I wanted Leah’s next project to […]

Upcoming Baby Sales – Fall 2010

The Northwest is booming with baby sales … must be the think green, recycling spirit in us! Thanks to my friend, Callie (and her daughter, Mia), I have compiled a list of the upcoming bargain opportunities. With this kind of savings, why wouldn’t you go?I saved a ton shopping these with Mia. My mom was […]

A Baby Carrier for Dad

We are in the market for a baby carrier for this guy … 6 feet, 2 inches – 260 pounds – crazy buff shoulders I totally thought I would be the baby wearer and Dom would be the bag carrier/stroller pusher. But no, he is very much into the idea of toting baby around. How […]

Anticipation

I’m not a very patient person. It makes you wonder how on earth I am sticking with this whole “we’re not finding out the baby’s gender”. I know, I don’t get it either. Back to the story of my non-patience … we’re bidding on an UppaBaby stroller on eBay. I’m trying not to think about […]

We got a great amount of info on Graco, Peg Perego, and Chicco carseats. These have been our focus since they […]

Carseat Saga

For the last few weeks I’ve been gathering carseat recommendations. It all started with a sister-to-sister conversation after I confessed my confusion with all the choices. Let me tell you, carseat shopping is a whole new ball game! Here is a synopsis of what I have gathered from my sis and the Andaluz Family Yahoo […]

Belly Bands

BellaBand = my bra for the bump I’m in love with my BellaBands! They are helping me to transition for . Who would have thought that a smudge of elastic could work such wonders? Over the last few weeks I have acquired two … both by Ingrid & Isabel. One has lace on the bottom […]

Baby Sale Loot

I’m still a bit floored by the amount of baby clothing at the sale. It was unbelievable. It was incredibly organized. I wll be going back every year. I truly believe the mall is officially the worst place to buy clothing. Everything pictured above was under $5 … most was $1-$2. I know, crazy. These […]
