Leopard Print Obsessed

I been a little sick (cold) the last few days and not really taking any meds since I am nursing (and I am too lazy to go on safefetus.com to see what's safe to take) I am wearing a mask so I won't spread my germs around Claire. All I want to do is smother her with kisses, since she is smiling more and I don't think it's gas. Anywho, obviously I am not that sick if I am doing some on-line shopping. (since it hard to go out these days) Back to my obsession...I have been obsessed with leopard print since I have been a teenager. See, I even had a leopard themed birthday cake. This photo is from Nov 2010...but I also had one this last birthday.

So far I have purchased these baby items, I need a leopard intervention!

Yes another diaper bag, this is a Christmas present from Rolo...it's such a beautiful bag I am so afraid to use it, in fear my clusmy self might ruin it.
Felix Ray, Golden Child Diaper Bag

These booties are sooo cute I purchased these in 0-6 mos & 6-12 mos and I will purchase them in 12-18 mos. Claire will never grow out of them ha! They are from Baby Bella Maya

I been wanting to get a car seat canopy and when I saw this one in leopard, I knew I had to get it! I ordered it and I got an e-mail telling me it's out of stock and will longer no carry it. Heartbroken, (well not really) I found another site and re-ordered it along with the seat cover. I haven't gotten it yet, I am just hoping this site still has it...since I think this may be a discontinued print. Sad face. (I did get an e-mail saying it was sold out, but they did make it up by throwing in a free Reusable & Washable Snack Bag in Leopard, free shipping and cute packaging. I am sold!)

I took this photo of Rolo and Claire. The leopard sleeper was a gift from my sister-in-law. I love it soo much I would put it on her couple times a week. She has grown out of it and have been trying to find a bigger size with no luck! boo!

The obsession continues....

I am budget conscious person but when it comes to handbags/purses, now adding diaper bags to the list...the budget goes out the window. I went to Ross today, my goal was to just browse, yeah right! who was I kidding. I was "browsing" through the handbag section and I saw this beauty of a diaper bag, who knew they sold diaper bags. (It's Betsey Johnson, Be Mine Messenger Diaper Bag, and it comes with a bottle tote & diaper pad) I knew if I didn't get it, I would never see it again...so my obsession took over and bought it. At this rate, I am going to have a lifetime of diaper bags, so I better start making more babies, cause I not getting any younger...ummm... nevermind, maybe I should think about it a little more.

Two Months

Today Claire is two months. She had a routine doctors appointment (she is a whopping 10 lbs and 22 inches long) which included her first set of shots. I would like to say it didn't faze her, but it did. She has been fussy/crying since and it's heartbreaking. I gave her some Little Fevers (ok'd by her doctor) and is currently taking a long nap. Once she wakes up, we are going to cuddle, smother her with kisses and then I will give her a warm bath.

Natural Baby Solutions?

Sometimes it seems Claire has trouble breathing due to a stuffy nose, I tried using the nose aspirator they gave me at the hospital, but can not (for the life of me) figure it out. I have tried boogie wipes, saline spray, buying a smaller aspirator. Poor baby, I have been torturing her. I did a little research (there has to be a easier way) and came across the Nose Frida Snot Aspirator, it had great reviews and wanted to try it. I went to the local pharmacy and purchased it.

While I was there I also purchased "The Windi" it was next to the Nose Frida. (I believe it's from the same company) It totally caught my eye, it's a natural solution for colic...it's a little weird (and to be honest a little gross) but, I figured I would have it in case the the gripe water doesn't work. Oh! the joys of being a first time mom.

Diaper Bag Obsessed cont...

Couple days ago I ordered a diaper bag (Yes, another! I couldn't resist) by Petunia Pickle Bottom. I just got it today and I absolutely love it! It's the Wistful Weekender Diaper Bag in Daisy Dewdrops. I believe this print came out for Spring 2011 Collection, so they no longer sell this print on their official website. I googled it and many other sites still have it. Hooray for me!


It's pretty big and roomy, perfect for traveling....or for mommies that carry way too much stuff like me (I am trying to make my life easier by minimizing but I haven't been successful.) It comes with a wipe case, diaper pad, and a key holder. They also have a matching sashay satchel, which I am trying to resist...hey I might need the matching satchel!

Diaper Bag Obsessed

I have always been obsessed with handbags, but since having Claire, my handbags are sadly taking a break in my closet. My diaper bag has become my new purse/bag. I was looking for a diaper bag/s that did not look like one and was also practical, so when I went to Babies "R" Us (I am obsessed with that store) the Timi & Leslie's Charlie Bag in Tan caught my eye.


I instantly bought it, BTW I used a 20% off coupon which I was happy about, since the bag is a little pricey. I really like this bag, it soo big and roomy, (sometimes I have trouble finding things) maybe a little too big ...today I went to Ulta and my bag knocked down a display, talk about embarrasing! Ok, maybe I had something to do with it (I can be a little clumsy). It also has straps to hang from your stroller and another longer strap so you can wear hands-free across your body. At first I didn't know what the straps were for, yeah I am clueless FTM ,so I went to You Tube and sure enough there was a video on how to wear the bag. It also has a bottle tote, dirty clothes bag, changing pad (which I already lost) and a key holder. This is my go to bag, it's neutral and goes with everything, not like my other diaper bags. Yep, I have more than one diaper bag...and I can't promise I won't purchase anymore. Hey, I have to match them with my outfits.
