girly things

I’ve been meaning to write a new blog post, but I have a dilemma:

All I can think about is my precious baby.

Not that she is a bad thing to think about. I’m just thinking maybe no one else wants to hear about her perfect lips and sweet noises and darling hair and teensy feet and …

You get the point.

We love her, though. Not more than I loved each of my boys, just different. We’re a team, me and Audrey. The only girls. My sweet companion. My last baby. I don’t want her to grow and yet I can’t wait to find out who she is. I love our quiet moments in the middle of the night when its just the two of us. She needs me. And oh how I need her.

Isn’t she beautiful?

What a sweet girl.

So in the hopes of not boring you with too many details of our Audrey, here are some other things that inspire me:

  8. Emily,
    Audrey is beautiful! Having three girls under age 4 myself, I'd love to read about where you've had luck finding unique, adorable girl clothes, accessories, etc. Of course, I know Etsy is an amazing resource, but do you have any specific sellers or stores (online or IRL) that you love?

  12. Hello. I was directed to your blog by one of your college acquaintances when I was trying to find ideas for a girl room. I have 2 boys and I'm pregnant with my last baby, a GIRL!! I LOVE this entry and most of all, i LOVE LOVE the tutu pic. Is this your baby and if so, where did you find the tutu and chair? I've never seen a tutu so full. Just wondering. I know you're probably busy but if you have time to get back to me I would love it. Thanks and congrats on your girl!
