I grew up on thrift store shopping (Value Village!), I loved finding one of a kind finds. I probably looked ridiculous most of the time, but I was unique! My dream would have been to go to the French Value Village so this find is pretty close. I stumbled upon this website, Apricot Culotte, one late night. I...

Memorial Day
(all images courtesy of Natalie G. Photography) Well, it’s a holiday but we just wanted to stop in and let you know we’re wishing everyone a very safe and relaxing Memorial Day! Erica is hitting up the slopes in Tahoe (yes, it’s May 30) while I hit up the sales here in San Francisco. Get ready for news of an...
Cloth diapers revisited
Kissaluv diaper pictured above. We were hanging out on the aero bed that was filled up in Jackson’s room for Grandma and Grandpa’s visit from Seattle. Isn’t Maddie the sweetest dog? She loves her little boy. Following up on the cloth diapers post. We’ve been using the new diapers for a couple of weeks now and I have to say...
If you’ve got it, flaunt it
Milk Jugs Tee from Zazzle I saw this round up of tee’s by the stir via Motherlove‘s facebook page [best nipple cream EVER!] and thought it was a great end to a bad boob day. Yes I said boob. If just the word boob makes you uncomfortable, stop reading. The first month or so of breastfeeding is hit or miss. Literally. If...
Yeehaw! Cowgirl Baby Shower
On Saturday I helped decorate a baby shower for my friend, Tanisha. She is only a few weeks away from her due date so it was great to be able to put on a nice event before she is thrown into mommyhood! Although, she is a kindergarten teacher to 30+ kids . . . so I think she will handle...

Mermaid Nursery Mood Board
Well, it’s moody Monday yet again! I’ve been dreaming nonstop of a vacation (I don’t have one planned, I just need one) so this week I was inspired by an ocean getaway. For this mental vacation, we have a stop under the sea for a modern mermaid inspired nursery. Here’s the breakdown: 1. Aqua Leaf Wallpaper by allen + roth...
Making the switch to cloth diapers
I always thought I would be a cloth diapers kind of person mom but when Jackson arrived with all that had been going on (post on that here) the last thing on my mind was researching and investing in cloth diapers. So we went the disposable route. Now that Jackson is five months and we’re in a better routine I decided...

Head Chefs
I don’t know about ALL children, but I certainly know that my niece Claire fancies herself a bit of a chef/baker. These tools from Head Chefs seem fun and easy-to-use for those cute chubby (less-coordinated) hands. There’s more to grip, and when they get bored they can pose their utensils. The silicone utensils are bendable, dishwasher safe, and can stand...
