Kickbaby scores!


This week Kickbaby finally staked out a dresser drawer among his sister's avalanche of outfits. My friends had a fabulous shower for us in Ocean Springs, and Kickbaby doubled his wardrobe in one morning!

This is huge progress – when Pauline visited, she pointed out that he owned nothing at all. I felt a bit guilty about that, so I made a list of practical things he'll need and went on a little non-practical baby-clothes-shopping spree with Pauline at Gymboree.

Nathan and I have been Vespa fans ever since Italy, so of course I couldn't resist this blanket (orange Vespa on one side, Italian landmarks on the other) and the Vespa socks.

So it's been an outstanding few days on the Kickbaby-gets-loot front. Next on his campaign list: changing the walls of the "kids' bedroom" to something less girly than pink...

  2. The Vespa blanket is from Gymboree – they had so many cute Vespa things for little boys, I had to restrain myself.
