Welcome to Our Living Room
Months ago we found this adorable pack ‘n play in Target’s clearance. It’s finally set-up and waiting for a little baby … JUST LIKE US!
Since we don’t know our little one’s gender I’ve been searching for the perfect first outfit. You know, the perfect outfit for baby’s first Facebook photo :) These are the two options I’m leaning towards. What do you think? Left – Kate Quinn OrganicsRight – Hanna Andersson via consignment
Like Mother, Like Daughter?
I found this sweet baby girl hoodie last week at a consignment shop for only $1.99! Me and my girl (if baby comes out a girl) will be twinsies!!! Pretty close, huh? Baby Hoodie – vintage Old NavyMama Hoodie – 2008 (or so) Lululemon Athletica
The Tree + the Fruit
According to traditional wisdom in rural France, a baby in the womb should be compared to fruit on the tree. Not all the fruit on the same tree is ripe at the same time…we must accept that some babies need a much longer time than others before they are ready to be born. -Michel […]
Day #21 – Fears
Toss out the hyper-happiness, you can’t expect me to be uber-thrilled all the time about this thing called birth and mothering. Yep, 30 Days to Baby is debuting a mound of fear today. I’m not generally a fearful person. Weird since I watch so much 20/20, Dateline and CSI. Those shows should give me mega-nightmares […]
Day #20 – Savoring the Moments
30 Days to Baby … which after my appointment the other day might need to switch to 45 Days to Baby. Chuckle. Laugh. Cry. Pretty soon I’ll be announcing the arrival of my little one. It floors me how fast this little darling has matured from the size of a blueberry to a massive summer watermelon! I […]
38 Week Appointment
These weekly appointments are just crazy. I mean, only so much can happen every 7 days. I pretty much say, “I’m feeling fine; marching on. Nothing too exciting to report.” This week brought some fun updates though … Belly is measuring at 40 weeks – that’s right, my wee one is gonna be a chunker […]
Hedgehog Love
My mom’s uber-talented friend, Bridget, whipped up this AMAZING hedgehog blanket … isn’t it FABULOUS! From what I hear … there are more Bridget surprises coming too. Can’t wait!
Day #19 – Before the Sun
12 days to go! WE ARE ALMOST IN SINGLE DIGITS!!! 30 Days to Baby marches on … Looking back, alot of these 30 Days to Baby posts have been about Dominic. And you know what, this is another one! So much of my becoming a mama is tied to Dominic becoming a dad. If anything, […]
Activity Room, ready for fun!
The Activity Room consists of Dominic’s desk (never pictured), our guest bed, rocking chair for reading/nursing and baby’s bookshelf … if you are wondering why the crib is missing, see here for pictures of our Sleeping Room! Artwork by yours trulyBed, hand-me-down from my Grammy and powder coated whiteNightstand, hand-me-down from my friend, Reina, and […]
Day #18 – Thirty is Around the Corner
I’m experiencing one of those life conundrums. Time is going so fast, and yet, it is going so slow. Approximately 13 days until our little one arrives! Tonight at dinner Dominic and I were discussing plans for my 24th birthday. Nothing extravagant since we don’t know when our little one will make there debut, but […]
