Let the shopping begin! Week 28



Here is an updated picture of my belly at 28 weeks. I can still see my feet, but tying my sneakers has become an all-day affair!

Our good friends Kate and Adam were recently in town with their one year-old daughter, Ella. We went into a store called "Kid O" in the West Village where I noticed the most adorable, rather mopey-looking hen tucked away in the corner. (Grandma, don't you love it!?) I went up to Jonathan and uttered a phrase for the first time that I'm sure will become my mantra for motherhood: "This is so cute. I just HAVE to buy this for our little boy." Jonathan put his hands to his head and said with exasperation, "Oh god. Let the spending begin." Therefore, in the spirit of consumerism on behalf of the unborn, I decided to dedicate this entire blog posting to a few of the items 'I just had to buy' over the past few months.

Go ahead. I dare you to say they're not cute!
