So, things in my life are going quite well at the moment. My best friend is pregnant, and I am the godmother to growing boy. He's perfect, she's perfect, the works! I've recently developed an outlook about life that is dependent upon beauty, and new life is definitely a beautiful thing.
In honor of that young life, I'm seeking out the best baby- and mommy-related goods I can find on Etsy. I've set aside some great things that I want to get for them, but I'm going to quest for entirely new stuff for you guys! I'm trying to go organic or natural, just to make things that much healthier for the baby in your life!
First off, I'm in love with natural wood teethers, like this one from littlesaplingtoys. I like them because they're simple and practical. They come in so many different sizes, shapes, and styles that it was hard to choose just one! What a great shop!
Babies love to play and learn! These little animals can let your baby do both! You can play along with your baby/toddler and name the animals as you take them on a woodland adventure or just toss them in the air. =P From justhatched.
Mommy has to wear something while she's buxom, right? This dress from thesimpson is so structured and pretty, with plenty of room for a growing tummy (and if you widen in some other areas, it's forgiving, but highlights your pretty, sculpted shoulders. ;)
Let's not forget that baby must be dressed too! First, a sweet girly onesie!
Then, a boyish onesie!
Both from lynsflinders. So many cute options from them!
A great unscented soap for sweet baby's skin. I like this mild, unscented soap because it won't irratate your baby's skin. From wyldeivy.
I love cute, soft, minky washcloths for the perfect skin on a baby's body! Since discovering the minky fabric, I'm totally in love with it! These washcloths from theposhtots are so cute and very affordable! Even though you only get 3, they're machine washable and just feel better with time!
Because I love variety, I'm going to provide a few options for a very special gift...THE DIAPER CAKE! Yes, all new parents need diapers (and lots of them), but how often do you get to dress it up? Rarely! So, I'm gonna bring you cakes at 3 price points where one will definitely fit your budget! Drum roll please...DUN-DUN-DUN!
1. Who doesn't love Winnie? This 60-diaper cake is perfect if you're hosting a baby shower and need a centerpiece. From ericajmoore. It's pricey, but totally adorable.
2. A more affordable, but still adorable option. That lion looks so ferocious! And I know baby would love to cuddle with it! From ilovepattycakes.
3. This mini-diaper cake is so cute, new parents will gush over it! Tons of characters to choose from and it comes with sweet extras. From nicole4129.
Mommies have needs too, and some of them can be annoying or frustrating for a new parent. One thing for breastfeeding moms to worry about is leaky *ahem* faucets. These bad boys will help with any unwanted leaks. They soften when washed and look great! Even if only you get to see them! From MasonsEcoMom.
Even though that big belly is a constant reminder, sometimes mommies want something a bit more delicate. This necklace is the perfect little trinket to make anyone smile. Those little feet are beyond adorable! From TheTwoBeans.
I could really go on forever, but I'm trying to finish the 2nd season of Arrested Development...so, I've gotta go! I hope you enjoyed this baby edition of Musings! Tomorrow, a daddy and baby edition!
-Bye!
