My Fave Finds for Boys on Etsy

Many of you have been telling me that there is not enough cute boy stuff out there, and I want to help. Here are my fave boy finds on Etsy...


1. We got our friend Henry this Roaring Rex Raglan T from HappyFamily and I don't think he has stopped wearing it yet! Here he is...
2. I think that these whale moks from Scandeez are so cute and a nice way to change it up from Robeez.
3. This Raglan Number or Letter ¾-Length T-shirt from LisaGorno is a nice way to personalize an outfit for your boy.

4. This helicopter hoodie from PlantPudge will have your little guy flying high!


5. Every little guy is a superhero! Capes from DiscoveryDenim are sure to be a hit with your little man of action.


6. These vintage cord overalls from FreeRangeBaby are original and so clever. Watch out: you'll be doing laundry every night if you get him these.


7. I'm eager awaiting the arrival of this sporty sailboat hat that I've ordered from OnceUponAHook. Since my nephew spends a lot of time on Cape Cod, I thought he needed to show off his nautical side.


8. These Oilcloth Aprons for boys from Chalkydoodles are so clever and can mitigate the damage from getting messy. One of these would be a great birthday present.

9. I'm torn between these great T's from TeeShirtGnome. The squid attack T is killer, but the PacMan T brings back fond memories of hanging out at the arcade!.

10. And last but not least, start a guy off right with one of my personalized stroller blankets. Here is a peak of my newest boy print with construction trucks and tractors all over it.

Happy shopping!

Goodbye Gus!

We all enjoyed a great long weekend with my brother who flew in from CT with his wife and little baby boy, Gus. It was so nice to have a tiny little baby around again! Kate really had fun with him and was always asking for him to sit on her lap. When they left yesterday morning, I whipped up a new style of blanket in his honor. Here's to you, Gus...

In other news, I am so excited that my Dino Princess dress made it into IndieSpotting--yay! I posted it to my Facebook page and it was so fun to get comments back from friends far and wide. Now I feel more incented to try to add fans to my business page.

Hmmm, somehow this evening has escaped from me. I had planned to read the latest Vanity Fait that just arrived. It has some juicy looking scoop in it! Instead, off to bed.
