i've always wanted..

a cute diaper bag.  but being cheap, i've always used the free ones they give out at the hospital.  the one i got with kinz is falling apart and i'll need a new one.  again, being cheap, i thought i'd wait and use the free one i'll get with the new baby.  then i found out the new one is a backpack style bag.  not very functional for every day use in my book.  i saw this bag on the gap website.  so cute, yet it doesn't scream diaper bag!  but being realistic... i'm too cheap to spend $50 on a gap bag!

1001 rules for my unborn son

i love my girls.  there is nothing like having a little girl melt your heart.  but i have always wanted to be able to teach a little boy to always open doors for women, that the snow isn't going to shovel itself, and all the other manners a man should have. 

i have been eye balling this book for quite some time and finally have a reason to buy it.
advise in this book is appealling because it seems our culture is losing traditional standards of sensible behavior. 





















snippets from the book:
- after lighting a firecracker, stand back.
- always stop at a lemonade stand.  tip well.
- the pleats on a cummerbund face up.
- at a ballpark, never start the wave.  but don't let it die. 
- no one wants to watch you practice the guitar.
- eat lunch with the new kid. 
- if you need music on the beach, you're missing the point.

ten little fingers... ten little toes...

and oh he's gonna have one of those! 


the girls will have a baby brother to play with soon.  daddy is a tad on the excited side... i don't think the smile has come off his face since we found out.  we now have to fill the house with blue stuff.  i admit, the thought of shopping for a little boy will be a nice change.
