Customized Silhouette

I love silhouette art and have wanted a piece for my nursery for quite a while. I was a little worried I couldn't get my son to sit still long enough to get a clear pic, but it was easier than I thought. It's amazing what a little "Mickey mouse clubhouse" can do! I got it done from a shop on instagram called @_mprints_ and she did such an amazing job! She gives you a digital file and then you can print it go were you would like. I got mine printed on a 12x16 canvas at costco.com, and it was ready to pick up in 2 days! 

Petunia Pickle Bottom Sale

Petunia Pickle Bottom, Boxy Backpack is what I chose for my Diaper Bag. I was going to do a tote, or something that didn't look like a diaper bag, but the problem with that is, they usually don't have the compartments you need. The great thing about Petunia Pickle Bottom is they are stylish, comfortable and practical. I think their price is reflective of the quality. Mine is 2 years old and still looks brand new!

Minky Blankets

My sister Nancy got these blankets for my son when he was born. They are the SOFTEST blankets I have ever touched, and they actually stay that way if you care for them properly! They come in a variety of sizes and patterns, and you can even customize the style with the pattern you like. I have a bunch of the infant ones for my son in different colors and patterns. They are also great for a backdrop for photos. After I fell in love with Minky Couture, I bought an adult size for myself, which turned into also buying a Monster size once my husband started taking over my blanket. I decided to finally share my minky blanket obsession with you today because they are having a huge pre-black Friday sale today and tomorrow!

Maxi Cosi Carseat Sale!

There's finally a sale on Maxi Cosi Carseats now through Dec 3, 2014.

A carseat is definitely a necessity and an investment, both financially and for the safety of your child. Maxi Cosi was a top 10 product in Pregnancy & Newborn magazine 2011.  It has unique FlexTech technology and AirProtect side airbags for safety and comfort, 11 harness heights and 3 buckle locations for the perfect fit.

I personally own the Pria 70 in the black and grey. It's the most cozy carseat I could find. The cushion feels so squishy (like memory foam), and provides support in all the right places. It also has a cup holder attached. My son loves to put his drink in there, snacks and toys.

The weight range on the Pria 70 is 9-40 rear facing; 22-70 and 52" forward facing.

They also make a Maxi Cosi Pria 70 "TinyFit" to accomodate a baby 4-9 lbs (with the insert) with addition to the features listed in the Pria 70.

There are many models to choose from, but the Pria 70 is what I have used personally and recommend. I attached some images of their infant carseats below to show you. They come in such fun solid colors!

That floral baby sweater is TO DIE FOR! It is a million times better in real life. I am so tempted to buy it for my "if I ever have a girl" box. 

Zara Fall 2014

I was just looking through the Zara website for new Fall clothing.... even though its in the 90's here in Southern California. I'm sitting here dreaming of cooler weather so we can bring out the coats, boots and warm scarves. There is SO MUCH cute stuff for boys out there! If you don't believe me, just wait and see... I always thought it wouldn't be fun to dress a boy, but I was wrong. I love the cute little shoes, sweaters, cardigans and jeans you can accessorize boys with! I really had to limit my selection because there was so much. If you like what you see, make sure you visit Zara.com!
