Shopping Problem

It's true. I'm now obsessed with all things baby. Specifically boy baby. I need to win the lottery. I type this as I'm about to head to a 25% off sale at my FAVORITE baby boutique in Charlotte. BAD!!! At least Aubrey doesn't read the blog. Hehehehe!


I got this adorable outfit a couple of weeks ago and LOVE it because it's blue (number one) and there's an adorable puppy embroidered on the pocket (number two) and there's a matching hat (number three). Too cute!

I got this for Newton because it's sure to be freezing in Baltimore when he's born and I don't need my baby coming down with hypothermia. It's kind of hard to see but it has little bears on the feet and ears on the hood so he'll look like a bear. I am such a nerd. Heaven help him.


And, for all of you patient people... the diaper bag. TA-DA!

I bought this little guy in New York City at the original Kate Spade boutique when my mom was in town while I was living up there for work this summer. I'm so glad now that I chose a "masculine" color. I originally did that so Aubrey wouldn't look ridiculous carrying the bag (because he WILL be carrying it some) and now I'm glad I didn't chose one with bows and stuff since we're having boy.


I LOVE this one because the inside is red. Others have black interiors and I thought that would make it really hard to find something. It also has the most pockets including two on either side. Perfect for stashing cell phones and pacifiers and other random things that we need to get to quickly.


So exciting. Well I'm off to see what other goodies I can get for him...


Oh, and for all of you waiting on a vacation post. It's not happening. I totally forgot my camera and what fun is it to just read about all I did- sleep, read, lay out, eat. There, done. :)


I promise to be better about taking my camera with me. Up this weekend, meeting Aubrey in Atlanta for the Sugarland concert!! Can't wait!!

Showered with Love





I know, I know, it's been FOREVER since my last post. My life is just soo busy right now. I'm traveling most weekends and work is super busy. I've had requests for the diaper bag reveal, more pics, anything. Easy readers, easy. You do not want to throw this pregnant girl over the edge.



Don't forget I'm also looking for a house in a new city and trying to plan a move (date still to be determined), my current house is on the market, I'm trying to find and plan appointments with an all new super medical team that I've never met (that's four different specialists folks) n a city I don't know and convince them to see me even though I'll be six months pregnant. Oh, and I can't really schedule an actual appointment because I don't know when I'll be up there full time.

I'm trying to find a pediatrician and child care- also challenging when I don't know where we'll be living exactly. Thank goodness for my Super Husband who's spending his weekend house hunting and for Lovely Lisa (super friend in Charlotte) who's researching pediatricians and photographers for me. I know the latter seems silly but I really want to have some pregnancy portraits made and I figured I'd use the images for our Christmas card. Don't worry- no bare belly here. Just something nice and outside with Super Husband and the dogs.

Plus, I'm going to need someone to shoot the baby for his birth announcements. Now, do you understand why there have been no posts for the past two weeks?



Here are some lovely photos from the baby shower Debbie and Rick (in-laws)'s friends threw for us in Richmond on the 24th.


Arriving at the Wests' home....



Kind of like Christmas, huh? And, yes, the large one in the middle was ours!! Debbie and Rick got us one of our car seats. SOOO nice!






From Meredith, David and Baby Mog... so adorable. Although, I don't think our son will appreciate the bloomers. Maybe we'll let Baby Mog borrow them until we have a girl?


Party crasher!!! Who was working security and let him in????????
