An Open Letter

After a recent message left by my Grandmother (yes, my Grandma!) stating, and I quote, " Erin I know some great ways to get pregnant. Call me Back!" I realized this whole baby situation is a little bit out of hand. I too know how to get pregnant Grandma, just sayin. But aside from that, I really don't think it's appropriate to discuss the tightness of my husband's underwear or the frequency of our adult playtime. Am I right? You don't even have to answer. I know I'm right and for reasons like this, I am thinking this open letter might come in very, very handy.

Ruby Cho and her insanely cute birth announcement.

When your Best Friend is Preggers

a) you lose your partner in vodka sipping crime (although I must admit my Sundays have been hangover free for quite awhile now and I kind of like it. Does that mean I'm finally growing up?!?!?)

b) you lose your mind over each and every cute little baby adornment, baby picture, baby room. All I have to say is god help this blog when I get knocked up. For now, it's just my pinterest account that's been high-jacked by mini-human inspiration

I honestly feel like every single person I know has a womb squatter as of late: co-workers, faux sisters, old friends, new friends, favorite bloggers (oh and here too). The list goes on and on and on. So in an attempt to gather my baby crazed thoughts into one post*, I thought it would be fun to showcase some of the fun bits currently offered for the littles in your life. Behold some pretty finds for the wee lasses...

and who can forget the itty bitty gentleman. Not I. And this sucker comes complete with a Wild Things Crown...

I heart The Blimes

Who needs engagement photos when you can have cute little family portrait sessions like this? KimBe Photography sent over these perfect little nuggets of goodness to share and I am giving the Blimes an A for Adorable. Besides, who can resist a bare little baby bum, I ask you? too precious.

Oh for the love of tee pees. Is it weird to buy a cradle before I have a baby?
