SMITTEN.

I am soooo in love with a little baby boy named Zach. He’s a man of many funny faces! Just like his Daddy! hahaa (just kidding David) Actually funny runs in this family, that’s what I love about them!

The Zach photos are from yesterday. We had brunch with David, Elana & 10 week old little Zach (2 year old Marissa stayed w/ a sitter) at Rose’s Cafe and then walked around Union Street. It was nice to have the sun out a little bit!

Any LOFT fans out there? Well, I was a huge fan – and was *tres* bummed when they shut down. BUT now there’s a new store open in it’s place that’s very similar, called Portico. Really quality designer home furnishings (probably expensive, I didn’t even look) but if I had my druthers, my whole house would be designed with this stuff!

had dinner w/ my bro

Had dinner w/ my brother lastnight. He’s such a solid guy… I just LOVE him!! Go figure cuz he’s my bro, right? But really having him in my life – another unconditional, loving family member, is so awesome. Family is incredible. Through changes and heartache and ups and downs of life… they’re always there. As messed up as familys can be, I’m treasuring mine more and more these days.

there’s lot of cheesy kids stuff out there

There’s a lot of cheesy kids stuff out there… so if you’ve just had a kiddo, by all means get the little one some cool furniture & threads! That’s one of the things that gets me all excited to have kids. The decorating — the cutie clothes and most of all, the crafts!!

I put together some links for Jason… so I might as well post em here too. Sites for designer baby furniture:

www.poshtots.com

www.brattdecor.com

www.furnitureshoppers.com

Also, here are some of my favorite baby sites/catalogs:

www.babystyle.com

www.totshop.com

AND if you’re expecting or know someone who is, hire me to do a nursery wall mural!

Get on my mailing list to be the first to know when my line of baby clothing is ready!

bikinis & duvets

Buy this bikini! I had wanted this forever, but when I finally got it, it was a little too skimpy for my voluptuous curves. :) Victoria’s Secret runs really small. I learn the hard way most every time.

I’ve also been searching for a new duvet cover/set. It’s really hard to find awesome duvet covers!! They’re all so old and boring. (well, either that or their $500 dkny or something) Ideally I’d like to stay under a couple hundred, especially if I plan to have matching pillows!!! Anyway – this whole rant is leading you me to tell you about a couple cool sites for designer linens: dwellshop and here’s an entire list of great designer shops.

I’m bidding on an ebay cover now, but if I don’t get that one, I’m going for linens at Dwellshop for sure.
