This week, our sponsor Amy Clark came over and took some pictures of Addie's Nursery since the ones I have on her are awful. I will put them up once I get the edited one's back, in the meantime her is my sweet baby girl in her room. For more of Amy's work check out Amy Clark Photography.
When the baby cries, when the toy fails (sing to tune of sound of music) when I'm feeling sad, I simply remember my favorite things... Okay for reals, this is one of my favorite gifts that I received from a friend when I had my baby. These Stackable Formula things are a Lifesaver! I just pre-measure out the formula I will need for each bottle and bring bottles filled with water and I am good to go for almost a whole days food. Great for traveling, church, boating, or even middle of the night feedings. My baby is starting to eat puffs and snacks so soon I will start putting little snacks in there also. You can find this awesome container at POTTERY BARN KIDS. And the best part is...its only $12!
She also got me this awesome Beaba Bottle Drying Rack and some Bottles. Best Present Ever. I seriously use this stuff every day. So if you are looking for a gift that goes above and beyond that target registry...this is it.
Nothing says "I'm pregnant" like heaving up your lunch in the Costco parking lot, your car, work bathroom, and many other inconvenient places. Everyone says ignorance is bliss, boy was I blissfully ignorant till about 7 weeks preggo when I was hit with this little thing called "Morning Sickness." Who ever came up with that name clearly was not a woman. More like ALL THE TIME SICKNESS. I had it pretty rough, "it will go away after your 1st trimester" this is when I decided my Doctor and Nurses where lying to me. Unfortunately I threw up till about 5 months along and was nauseous till the day my sweet little angel was born. So after this trial in my life I have an extreme aversion to the stomach flu and feel incredibly compassionate towards woman who are going thru this, (even if the little suckers only get it for the first trimester). I came up with this Retching Care Package that contains some of my favorite tummy soothers (and by soothing I don't mean it will go away, just make you feel a tad bit better). So YOU can download My little tags HERE and make your own! You're Welcome.
It took me a lot of blood, sweat and tears designing this nursery but when it was finished it was so worth it! My husband and I were painting the walls and putting together the dresser and crib when I was 38 weeks pregnant (don't worry, I wore a mask). Baby A was born a week later and the first thing I thought was, "She can't come yet her nursery isn't finished! But we finished it up a week after she was born. I love being in this room, it is so peaceful and everything was painstakingly (I have a really hard time making decisions) picked and designed by me. (My mom helped me out a little also.)
