Road Test

After putting each model thru rigorous testing we settled on the one we like ... 

Date Nite to Stellas

If you let the Pregnant one choose date nite - you can be sure that it will include dessert :) Last nite we took a trip to Stella Pastry & Cafe in North Beach after reading its 4.5 star review on yelp. Heres a pic of the Cannoli - 

... and this pic shows Davids enthusiasm for the Tirimisu -

Baby + Cannoli Belly -  

19 Week Belly Shot

Coming Home Outfit?

For my halloween baby ... ;)

Preview of Baby Brooklyn???

In case youre wondering, D's on the left and Im the one with the bow ...  ;)

Can you believe we BOTH had blonde hair ... I don't think we look all that different.

Got my Diaper Bag!

this is what I will use to tote around diapers and milk and binkies for the next year or THREE ...

bebe boudoir

heres my inspiration for Brooklyns nursery ... and the walls will be aqua/teal just in case she comes out a HE!

Heres my Color Palette Inspiration: 

 

"Stay Sweet and K.I.T."

I spent last Saturday night reminiscing with old High School buddies about the 'good ole days' ... at my 10 year high school reunion. I had a great time and was so glad I went ... heres a pic of the end of the night:

17 Week Belly Shot

well - technically its 17.5 weeks but who's counting right??  ;)

MJ's for Baby Brooklyn

Baby Brooklyn NEEDS these ... I'm adding them to my 'necessity' checklist asap - right next to infant seat and diapers.

What the 18th week of Pregnancy looks like ...

All things girlly ...

What baby wouldnt sleep peacefully in this bedding ...??

Pickles & Ice Cream ...

My Pregnancy Cravings.

These are a few of my favorite things ...

Simply Lemonade -  heaven in a bottle. 

Chinese Food - especially fried rice with hot sauce

Frozen Grapes

Pears

Cottage Cheese & Tomatoes

Arnold Palmers (1/2 Iced Tea, 1/2 Lemonade)

Any/Everything Salty

Side Note: 

Oddly enough I drank GALLONS of lemonade when I was pregnant with Kalina as well.

Signed up for Consumer Reports

It seems like the strollers with the best ratings are the ugliest (see Graco stroller below). Ive settled on the Chicco travel system (very high safety & convenience ratings), now if they could just make a travel system in black/grey I would be a happy, happy camper.  

Seriously ... can you see me pushing this thing around? It looks like someone threw up Pepto-Bismol all over it ... bleh.

Diaper Bag Woes

Since my caviar tastes are living in the reality of a meatloaf budget I guess that means I count this beauty OUT .... 

But I did find another one that I like in lieu of the Louis Vuitton  ;D What do you think? 

3 lines = GIRL!

hated other DVD - LOVED Gab. Reeces!

I didnt like the other prenatal workout DVD that I got so I found this one on ebay and got it! I love it! It has 6 different 15 minute workouts - and theyre trimester specific. 

gotta new haircut ...

okay, okay - its really not *that* different but D got me a deal at a salon he did work at ... I cried afterwards because I've gotten so used to my normal hairstylist (who I LOVE) - I was convinced he RUINED my hair, but I got over it as drama-queens always do. Anyhow - check out the new bangs ... 

16 week Belly Shot

Updates: I can feel her moving! This baby has literally turned my uterus into a bounce house ... I guess she better enjoy it in there while theres still room!

Chinese Baby Chart was right ...

We're 99.9% sure that this baby is a GIRL! We're very excited to add yet another girl to our growing family!

15 Weeks ...

Its looking like a baby!!!
