It’s a girl! Yep, we recently had our 20 week ultrasound and learned that this baby I’ve been carrying around is going to be a girl baby. Mostly, we’re excited that she’s healthy. But also? Girls are just so much more fun to shop for. This is going to take some restraint!

My new go-to baby shower gift – a stack of our favorite books. Some are classic (Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown), some are cute (Red Hat, Green Hat by Sandra Boynton), and some are special because they’re local (I Live in Brooklyn by Mari Takabayashi).
What could be better to receive than baby’s first books tied up with pretty ribbon?
Remember that black and white poster I’d made for $4.00? Well, recently we celebrated my in-laws’ birthdays. For the party, I blew up an old photo (love those glasses, Carole!), and spelled out HAPPY BIRTHDAY in pre-made letters from Staples. A few bits of confetti and some party hats glued on completed the look. I’d like to think all the guests had a good chuckle as they walked in the front door.
Making this was so easy and fun, I fully intend on making one for every birthday and special occasion.
Baby makes three! We’re thrilled, excited, terrified… and very much looking forward to meeting our little one in July. Next week, we’ll find out if it’s a boy or a girl. Any guesses?
