About

I'm 29 with a great husband and a super cute son. I love to shop, love espresso, love a good pinot noir and love my friends. I tend to be reserved around people I don't know- until I figure them out. People tend to think that I am a bitch, until they know me. On occasion, they may still think that, but that's okay.

Nursery Stuff:

Things I have decided upon…

  • Nothing will be too matchy-matchy
  • Color will be a mix of honey dew, lemon and raspberry sherbert

That’s it for now.  I have a long way to go.

I did it. I cut my hair. 6 inches all around, probably close to 12 inches in the back.
I like the cut, but I don’t know if I am sold on it, on me. I miss my long hair.

 Love it!

This past weekend I made my usual rounds at T.J. Maxx. By the way, they have so many awesome gift options right now! I’ve already picked up a few things for my mum and other family members.
Anyways, I found these awesome boards there. Well they are more than boards, they are a picture frame and a pin board in one! Aren’t they just darling? Oh, and they come with these adorable crystal pins.
Can’t wait to use them in the office I will one day have…
P.S. Yes I do occasionally buy things that I currently have no use for. These were just too good to pass up.

 These are very cute!  I think I need to hit up the good ol’ TJ Maxx this weekend.

My Favorite Baby Resources

dearbaby:

Today I thought I’d share a few of my favorite pregnancy & baby related resources with those of you with your own little bun in the oven (or those of you who are thinking about getting knocked up in the near future)  These are the online resources that I have found to be valuable as we navigate our way through pregnancy and into parenthood.

  • My favorite “What the heck is going on with my baby this week?” website: ivillage pregnancy guide. Some of these week by week website are down right silly (comparing my baby’s brain size to that of Paris Hilton’s, I mean - come on!) or packed with advertisements. I like this one because it is consistent, has pictures, interesting facts, and pertinent information.
  • My favorite “I want to check out some cool baby stuff” website: Ohdeedoh.  I love this site - full of nursery inspiration, cool kid toys, diy projects, and general baby/kid related coolness. I check it often and have found alot of great ideas and products.
  • My favorite “I need some comprehensive pregnancy advice” website: Ask Dr. Sears. This website was passed down to me from a friend who used it consistently throughout her pregnancy and after.  They offer info on pregnancy stages, labor & delivery, breastfeeding, infant care and more. I am constantly checking this site and love the information available here.
  • My favorite “Place to shop online for gorgeous baby stuff” website: Fawn & Forest.  Totally enamored with everything on this site - the handmade offerings, their eco-friendly commitments, the gorgeous furniture, toys, clothes, etc - all of it. I want everything available at Fawn & Forest.
  • My favorite “I want to talk to other pregnant ladies” website: The bump. Every now and then I just get the urge to chat it up with other preggos about things only pregnant women care to talk about like eating an entire box of fudgesicles or lightening crotch. (don’t ask)
  • My favorite “I want to read other baby blogs” website: Top Baby Blogs. A great resource for reading about the adventures of other expecting women. I’ve found some really entertaining blogs through this site!
  • My favorite “Cloth diapering resources, recommendations, & helpful info” website: All about Cloth diapers. Cloth diapering is a lot easier than you think! And economical and WAY better on the environment. Top that off with the wide availability of super cute, colorful diaper covers instead of plain ‘ol plastic diapers and you’ve got our ideal diapering option!
  • My favorite “Babies are expensive. Give me a good deal!” websiteBaby Steals. So I just learned of this one this morning but I can already tell you it’s going to be a well loved website for me! It’s basically the “Daily Candy” of baby products deals and discounts. Everyday they email you with a special or discounted baby related item. Today I scored 6 gdiapers for $50. That’s half off what they cost at target or on amazon!

These are just a few of my favorites - and all of them are bookmarked and referred to often in our home! I’d love to hear what websites and resources other new parents have found to be helpful for them. Please feel free to share in the comments below.

Love,

M

This list is so super helpful!  I have never heard of G Diapers (I love the idea behind them and will be conducting some research today).

Thanks Melissa!
