A few fun finds....

I had a moment last night where it hit me....WE'RE HAVING A BABY!  That's crazy.  I mean, logically, I know that I'm pregnant.  I've seen the tests, and heard the heartbeat, but I think it's still soaking in emotionally.  Something strange happens when you spend years hoping for a baby. When it finally happens, your heart takes a while to open up to it.  I've guarded myself so tightly, that the walls are still coming down.

Every once in a while it hits me, and I just can't believe that a person is growing inside of me. That they're gonna come out at some point {I'm trying not to even think about what that will be like!} and they're gonna live with us, and I'm no doubt going to think they're the best person I've ever known.  It seriously blows my mind!

That being said, I find myself more and more daydreaming about what our little one will be like.  Wondering what exactly it will feel like to hold them in my arms.....to watch Jon hold them in his.  Oh, man.  This is gonna be pretty amazing.

With that in mind, here are a few of my "fun finds" for the week....

I must have a print like this for the nursery....

Love this sweet pendant....however frivolous it is, because you'd really only be able to wear it til you deliver, lest set yourself up for the "are you pregnant?" question that no non-pregnant woman wants to hear...But, what a great keepsake it would make!!!

I love this cute little wooden phone!  I have serious fears of handing over my iPhone to a small child {plus, I've heard alot about how damaging that can be to their development}  This seems like a cute, chew-friendly alternative...
