Handbags, purses, clutches, LOVE them all!

My new diaper bag!  It is so cute and roomy, I'm very tempted to start using it as my everyday bag right now!  There are so many pockets inside and out, so it's really functional.  I didn't want something with daisies or teddy bears on it.  I wanted something stylish and easy to carry.  I was going to get a unisex bag, but my loving hubby said he wanted me to be happy and would be glad to carry the diaper bag around even if it was covered in pink flowers.  Sweet right?!

It comes with a matching changing pad as well.  I love this bag!

I also picked up a BellaBand.  It's suppose to help keep my pants up, which would be awesome.

Thank you very much Ingrid and Isabel for the magnet I'm going to look at everyday!

I bought a pair of Paige Premium Maternity jeans with the elastic waistband.  They're so cute and Paige is definitely my favorite denim designer, but since I wear them under my belly, they tend to slide down during the day.  Hopefully, the band will help.  I'll take photos of it all next time I wear it.

Someone told me to get a size up... wrong-o.  Buy whatever size you bought pre-pregnancy!

Speaking of purses... aren't these cute?!

I like the mix of canvas and shimmer.  Mixing textures is awesome.

I must have this.  Perfect colors, perfect size, perfect price!

Alphabet Soup - Letter of the day is N

I had to think about N for a little while, but isn't N so pretty?! 

N is for nice.  N is for naughty.  N is for NOW!  I hope everyone had a great weekend.  We've been house hunting and let me tell you... it is very time consuming.  Well, I'm pleased to announce we put our first offer down on a house!  Yay!!!  It's really cute, but because it's a short sale, it needs some TLC.  My hubs found another one he loves and wants to put an offer on.  I think we're taking a look at it this weekend.  It's NOT a short sale, so this could be the one!!

P.S.  My little sister and her hubby are coming home tonight from Paris.  I haven't talked to her in weeks!  I'm picking them up at the airport and I'm just super excited.  My sis is one of my best friends and I talk to her just about every single day!  Btw... did I ever mention that my sister is Myra of Twigs & Honey?  If you haven't heard of her, you will.  She has a very successful bridal accessories and adornments shop.  You can see her items EVERYWHERE!  I'm so proud of her!!!

Alphabet Soup - Letter of the Day is E

First off, I want to say that I totally flubbed on my mom's birthday gift.  I didn't have a chance to pick up the massage gift certificate.  I ended up getting her some Clarins cream from Sephora that she had been wanting.  I think I'll just have to use the first idea for Mother's Day!!!  But thank you so much for all your suggestions. 

E was fun.  It is not easy finding this many lovelies that all start with the same letter.  Good for the brain though, I think.  Keeps me on my toes.  Btw... that chantico tank from Anthropologie is going to be mine.  Getting delivered to my house.  Yup.  Lovely and I will probably end up getting every color.  Why?  Because that's how I do.

Alphabet Soup - Letter of the day is B

B is for bold.  B is for beautiful.  B is for BE nice to someone today, even if you don't like them.  B is also for bread, which I can't seem to get enough of these days (sorry butt... and thighs).  

Before I begin, I have one question for you all...

What is a good birthday present for my mom?!  Her birthday is next Monday and I can't think of anything.  She is a difficult woman to shop for.  She's one of those people that smile and say, "oh, thanks... I love it", then when you turn around she says, "that's it?"  Can't win with her.  I was thinking about a gift certificate for a massage.  Is that lame?  HELP!!!

Ok and here's some lovely lovelies that begin with B.  P.S. The bags are on my dream list.
