Rainbows and Lemondrops...

Ever since I was a wee little girl, I have always loved rainbows! They're so colorful and playful and innocent, and I still get stopped in my tracks when I see one after the rain. I especially love to see babies in them; they look so sweet! Ok, so there aren't any lemondrops in this post, but I thought the title sounded rather delightful ~smile~!

So Very Vintage...

I am a lover of all things vintage, especially for babies! The little lace-trimmed dresses seemed so sweet. And the bonnets? Absolutely adorable! However, while I do adore gazing nostalgically at these precious pieces, I have to wonder if I would have been able to afford baby clothing back then! Those babies were always dressed so eloquently, even at nap time! I guess my little ones would have been wearing baby bloomers everywhere we went- no top, no shoes...just bloomers, and maybe socks.

Black and White Baby-ness...

I already know what you're thinking; black and white??!! That is sooo boring and lifeless and drab and blah, blah, blah. Well, guess what? I used to think the very same thing until I started to notice all of the oh-so-fab baby things on the market now. Made me seriously rethink things- and I'm glad I did! I found some totally cool items for the little ones, and you can always add a splash of color if you wanna shake things up a bit...Take a looksie!

A Beachy Baby Shower...

(click pictures to enlarge)

Right now is the perfect time of year to fire up the grill and throw a beach-themed baby shower! How much fun will that be? I'll tell you- LOTS!

Take advantage of the all the cute summer tableware on sale now (you know, the ones right next to the picnic baskets) in stores like Target, Walmart and Party America. You could also grab a few inflatable beach balls for added color.

Drink umbrellas could also double as cupcake toppers or even hor d'ouvre picks. Fill a few kiddie buckets with sand and a tiki torch for an authentic beach feel.

Beach-themed cookies make for a cute display as well as sweet favors for guests. You could even grab a couple of beach umbrellas and set them up; inexpensive and cute! Trust me, it'll be a BLAST!!!

The Fourth's A-Comin', Baby!

I'm so looking forward to this year's Fourth Of July! For the last two years my family has been traveling during this holiday, so this year we get to relax, enjoy some BBQ, and my one-year old gets to see his very first firework display. I just hope he isn't scared because to tell the truth, I think I'm the most excited person in the entire universe when it comes to fireworks! Hopefully he'll enjoy it just as much as I do... Check out these cute and oh-so-festive digs!
