i was browsing etsy for baby mobiles and stumbled upon these cloud + rain mobiles from the butter flying. so sweet + puffy and i love the soft muted colors.

baby nursery
also on my mind now is nurseries. i remember a while back this beautiful nursery was all a buzz on the blogs. it took me a while to track it down, and i’m so happy i found it. it was featured on cookiemag.com, and i just love how sophisticated and sightly unexpected the room is. it’s now been stashed in my inspiration folder.
Gender Reveal Party
now that we’re expecting, my radar seems to be focusing on all things baby. i saw this gender reveal party on hostess with the mostess and just went gaga over it! the expecting couple hosted a party inviting their friends and family and asked them to show up in either pink or blue depending on what they thought the couple was having. the big reveal was concealed inside cupcakes the hosts offered to the guests. on the count of three, everyone bit inside and discovered a blue gumball revealing they were having a baby boy. what an incredible idea!
even though we don’t live near family, in my head i’m still trying to finagle a way to do something similar. some fun way to reveal the news.
baby bump announcements
our baby bump announcements were actually quite a project. we didn’t just send out one standard card. instead, each card was individually designed for the recipient. it’s not the smartest use of letterpress printing, but once i got the idea in my head [during one of my many sleepless nights, thanks pregnancy!] i just had to pursue it.
since posting the news, we’ve been overwhelmed with warmth + support from you guys. thank you all so much for the well wishes and words of congratulations.
