Premium Paige Denim = Sausage Casings?

Babysteals.com was having a steal of a deal on Premium Paige denim Maternity Jeans. I was super excited to get my hands on a pair for a great price. I was even more excited to get them in the mail. 

I busted open the packaged and jumped into them! They were mid thigh when I realized the outlook was grim - these were surely going to suffocate my thighs. 

Yup - sure enough; they looked no better than sausage casings on fresh ground pig. ugh. As if its not enough to sacrifice control of your body to the pregnancy gods and the life growing inside of you - then you have to deal with thin thighed denim. 

Operation hot maternity designer denim = FAIL. 

Team Green needs a girls name.

We are set for a Boys name but still deciding what Baby would be named if its a 'she'.

Girlly Obsessions: Diaper Bags :0?

I have a Diaper Bag - a bag that I really like and still is in great shape, as a matter of fact. But I cant shake the feeling that I *need* a new one. New baby = New Diaper Bag, right?? Whats so crazy about that? One pair of shoes would surely do us good too - but what woman in her right mind only has one pair?

At this stage in my life I don't need nice, cute handbags - my hands are full as it is. I suppose Ive carried my girlly obsession with handbags over to my diaper bags. I want another (you saw the gorgeous Cake one?!) ... but unfortunately my practical, though very loving husband does not see this as necessary.

I continued looking for one that was cute, stylish yet more affordable th

an the Petunia Pickle Bottom and I think I found it! Its durable, large, stylish in my opinion and AFFORDABLE. See - those are words my husband will appreciate.

What do you think??:
