First Baby Purchases

We decided to make one last trip to IKEA before we move and load up on some baby items I knew I wanted. (YES! We're moving! I hope to share some really good house-selling news soon but I don't want to jinx anything we have going on right now.)

This highchair is something I knew I wanted, prior to even getting pregnant! I love the red color and the simplistic design. Not to mention, easy to clean and fits in smaller spaces. We wanted to see the cribs in person and we were pleasantly surprised, so much that we decided to take one home! All of the IKEA cribs come highly recommended by reputable sources (consumer reports, baby bargains and many 'real' people on the internet). I love the sleek European color and style.

We found out the gender in early April - that's when the real shopping and designing will begin!

It's Happening

The Adventures of VAMH now include this....

Once I have something that looks a little less like a food belly and more like a baby belly - I'll be journaling ~~over-sharing~~ details of this beautiful and exciting adventure!

Paris is Always a Good Idea - The End.

Day One
Day Two
Day Two 1/2

Day Three:

One word: Versailles (the 'one word' was almost blister but I decided to go with Versailles)

*There was a modern art exhibit occurring within Versailles - I'm sure you noticed the stilettos made out of kitchen pots, the feather helicopter, doily lions and giant female reproductive system throughout the pictures!

Paris is Always a Good Idea - Louvre & Père Lachaise Cemetery

Day One
Day Two

On the second half of our second day we hoofed it to Pere Lachaise Cemetery to spot Jim Morrison's grave and an all-around awesome cemetery. In the evening hours we headed to the Louvre for a very short tour of one of the largest museums in the world! EXHAUSTING. But worth it!

Paris is Always a Good Idea - Day Two

Day 1

Our second day we headed out early up to the top of Paris, Montmartre. Vinny and I stopped here once before but it was late at night, on our last night so we were anxious to return. The streets lined with artists, cafes and shops - it's magical.

Sacre Coeur (Sacred Heart)

Up on the hill over Paris! My favorite area of Paris!

Miss Laura enjoying the view!

Beer and croque madame for breakfast - don't mind if we do!

Love this shot, so much going on! Montmartre is known for its free-living citizens - artists, musicians, drunks, whores, you get the idea. My kind of place :)
