Bottoms Up!

My friend Jenny (one of my preggo friends) sent me a link to Hello World Clothing Company and they have the coolest baby onesie. I love it! Zips from top down OR bottom up. First of all, any onesie with a zipper is a plus in my book, but a bottom up zipper...that's just exciting! Seriously though, the zipper at the bottom would come in very handy for the middle of the night changes those first few months. AND, they are super cute!

Bumper or No Bumper

Everyone knows about the bumper/no bumper debate. Well, we decided to go with no bumpers on our cribs. The babies have been fine in their cribs (they were in the same crib until 2 1/2 months). But, our son has always moved around quite a bit and the other morning we went in to get him and found this. He is in a sleep sack and he had his legs between the bars. We were not sure whether or not to be concerned or to laugh. We mostly think it's pretty funny and I'm not going to put in a bumper because of this. But, a bumper would keep his little legs safe and sound.

Mamabargains...Hot Item!

I really like Mamabargains and their daily deals. There's a good one right now. I've seen a stoller on there from time to time and today it's the SKY stroller. It's normally $500 and it's on Mamabargains for $230.

Uncommon Goods

I've been on the Uncommon Goods site before and loved it, but I just got a catalog in the mail for the first time and it reminded me to check them out again. I looked at the kids products and found lots of cute stuff. Here is what is pictured above:

Newborn Frame
Animal Bookends

Painting the Crib...Awesome Idea

I really wish I would have seen some pics of painted cribs or thought of the idea before we did our nursery. I absolutely love our nursery, but I REALLY love the idea of a painted crib. I think the two cribs above are awesome. I would have had a tough time deciding between the gold metallic and a fun bright color. The gold metallic crib pic is from the blog Urban Grace and the yellow crib pic is from Odeedoh. Can one of my preggo friends please do a painted crib so I can live vicariously through you?

I heart You!

My friend Jenny is pregnant with identical twins (YAH!)! It is sometimes hard for me to contain my excitement over the fact that one of my best girlfriends is having twins...just ask my husband how much I talk about it!

Jenny is thinking about purchasing a fetal heart monitor as gift for her hubby so he can listen to the little twinkies any time he wants. She was doing some research and found that there are some pretty cheap monitors on the market. The one above is from target and is $20.

Did anyone buy one/use one? Thoughts? Did they work ok? Was it a good buy? Did you use it frequently?

Elephant Toes

We received several very nice personalized items for the babies and one of my favorites was a set of burp cloths from my friend Alison. She purchased them from Elephant Toes. They have so many beautiful things. The burp cloths are almost to pretty to use! I will definitely be ordering some gifts from Elephant Toes!
