Baby binge

1/2 done on coppelia! I have the skirt for front and back done, and the bodice of the back done. (the back with bodice and skirt is shown). Its a quick easy knit. Katie is in love with it already. Its really adorable. I will be adding sleeves also.

Then I went for a baby binge. Thats when you have a shopping phase, for babies alone. First I hit Bella and Max again.  I bought a ton of stuff. Some of Tea organic baby clothing. I also gambled and grabbed one of the Mysterio Presents grab bag onsie tees. The one we picked was…monkey wrangler, see? I found one of the coolest new inventions for baby stuff there. Called the
itzbeen. With a few batteries its a night light, it keeps track of when the baby changing, eating and sleeping. You can even set an alarm to remind you (or the sitter). It may sound a little geeky, but its way way cool. I just push a button when I change the diaper, push the button, and the light flashes three hours later reminding me to do it again. (It can make noise, but thats just not me). Tons of other great uses. A great dad thought this one up! I of course bought it and have been carrying it with me everywhere! I bought a few more things. Then I proceeded to notice he had grown a size and I hadn’t noticed (or it might be the new cloth diapers). Either way, was time to  shop. I ordered 3 pairs of bummis (diaper covers), 12 snappis (replaces diaper pins) and a pack of the pink and brown polkadot momanager cards from paperlicious. Then on an outing to figure out the rest of the girls birthday gift (or rather how to get it!) when I found they were still carrying my 1st choice in the stores. (its the newest kitchen on the left) Then anothe happy find, a little shop in the University village called Village Maternity. They carry so many things II love, including Tea clothing, trumpet socks, taggies, bella bands, lily pads, buckles, and just so so much more. I can’t wait to take my sister-in-laws there. They carry a clothing line I just fell in love with called Noppies. There site does not even do the clothing I saw in the store justice. There were just so many amazing finds in there. They have a blog also, that lets you know whats new to the store. I can’t wait to go back! It was worth the drive for sure.
