My sister is pregnant and just found out she is having a boy!! For those of you who don't know, the baby's due date is the same day as Shaelyn's birthday. Cousins one year apart! I am making her a list of things that I couldn't live without once I had Shaelyn, as well as a few items I wish I wouldn't have wasted my money on. So for those of you with kids - what items were must-haves for you with your first baby? Any that turned out to be total duds? I'll pass along your wisdom and experience to one soon-to-be joining our ranks!
And because I can't go two blog posts without pictures of Shaelyn...
We went to France when I was 10 weeks pregnant, so consequently we didn't know what we were having. I wanted to buy an outfit for the baby in France, and since I didn't know if I was shopping for a boy or a girl, I had to go with something uni-sex. I just recently took a photo shoot of Shaelyn in the outfit. Michael and I agree that it does make her look a little bit like a boy, but hey, it's a French outfit, so we think it's adorable! And I checked if I could buy this brand here in the United States because I love the clothes and would like to get something more girly now. The brand only sells in boutiques in places like NYC and San Fran - a quick look online showed nothing at these boutiques for less than $65!!! And that was for a shirt like this one!! I can assure you we did not pay that in France. Well, I guess another trip is needed to purchase cute French fashions and beignets for Carrie.
