i know what i'm getting all my new mom friends...

quite simply, this is the best shower gift... ever.

if you can find something better, please let me know. but i don't think you will (not cause you're not resourceful, but because this boobie beenie is just too damn awesome).

it makes even me want a child.

via happy place.

k is for kids

i come from a huge family -- i'm the oldest of way-too-many cousins/grandkids -- which means i've spent most of my life babysitting or chasing after little ones.

and now that my friends are expanding their families with the most adorable babies ever, i get ridiculously excited about finding cute kids' gifts or decorating nurseries.

if you're looking for a little inspiration (for you or someone else), check out a few of these fun finds.
