Momma’s got a brand-new (diaper) bag

by Aron on June 29, 2011

I decided not to get a dedicated diaper bag, but sweet Aron found me a beautiful Michael Kors Gansevoort tote on ebay that I’d be much happier carrying and converting into a diaper bag. Really any bag can do as a diaper bag with the addition of a Skip Hop Pronto Changer or a conversion […]

Style for a nursing mom

by Ashley on June 24, 2011

Alyson of Unruly Things asked me to guest post while she’s on maternity leave. (Have you seen her new little man, Wolf? Adorable!) I picked out a cute outfit that would meet my requirements for nursing-friendly wear–but which I’d happily wear anytime. Stop by and check it out! And while on the subject of good […]

BellaBand

by Ashley on June 10, 2011

It’s not news, but it’s worthy of yet another recommendation: the BellaBand. This stretchy fabric band has been a lifesaver and it’s still working for me, letting me wear non-maternity pants and slightly-too-short shirts at nearly 33 weeks into my pregnancy. There are plenty of generic versions–and I’m sure they work fine–but I’ve been really […]

Wry Baby predictions

by Ashley on June 2, 2011

Our friend brought us a prediction for our baby’s future, neatly tied-up  in a cute little sack. With the pull of a string, it was revealed that he will be a (drumroll): Fortune Cookie Writer! Mysterio Predicts tees each feature a different occupation, and you never know what comes inside: Game Show Host? Donut Tycoon? […]

The endless search for summer sandals

by Ashley on June 1, 2011

Every year, it seems, I find myself searching for the perfect summer sandals. Oddly, the pair that I seem forever trying to replace was a $16 pair from Payless! After Aron’s resuccitation efforts failed (the lovely fellow tried surgically stitching them back to life), I’ve spent untold riches in search of their equal. This year, […]

The hunt for maternity jeans

by Ashley on April 19, 2011

    Someone asked me recently about where I found my maternity jeans. Finding a good pair has been the biggest wardrobe challenge so far (I have put Aron through more try-on sessions than I’d like to admit); but after first deciding that there is too much lycra in the Gap Always Skinny jeans, I’ve […]

Baby Shower: dress dilemma

by Ashley on April 11, 2011

My family is hosting a California baby shower for me and I’ve been struggling a bit with the “what to wear” question–as I’m sure everyone with a suddenly rotund belly does. I’m not finding many dresses to my liking. (Why do so many have bows over the belly? My parents called the new grandchild a […]

American Apparel for kids

by Ashley on April 6, 2011

  American Apparel has equally affordable, domestically manufactured basics for kids and babies. (As long as we don’t see their assless tights in size 2T, this is great!)
