image1-2Happy Friday, friends!! It has been awhile since I’ve popped in to share what I am loving so today I thought I’d share a few things I have purchased recently or am seriously eyeing!

  1. You may have seen over on Instagram that Eleanor started swim lessons last weekend at Goldfish Swim School and according to the fabulous instructor, she acted perfectly normal for her first time.  More next week, but we do have another swim lesson coming up tomorrow and I thought maybe an adorable new suit would get us on the right track!  Can’t hurt, right?
  2. Ah, Valentine’s Day.  Really sneaking up here folks.  E and I got started on her Valentine’s last week. Which, can I just say, are really hard to find??  They are all character ones!  I’m assuming that’s all the kiddos want.  MEHHHHHH.  I’ll just have to keep Valentine’s Day character free on my end with This cute mug.
  3. These days I kinda feel like Regina ‘but this is all that fits me right now’ George.  $13 Oversized Sweaters and anything that covers m’ compression hose are staples around here.
  4. I’ve said it about a thousand times and I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned it in every round up, but if you haven’t gotten This lip treatment and this lotion stop what you are doing and get them. Now.
  5. I gotta say…even though the veins and compression hose are a real nuisance, I’m blessed that the majority of my pregnancies have fallen in the fall and winter so that I can wear boots (pretty much the only shoes you can wear with the hose without looking ridiculous).  I have my eye on these cute booties!
  6. How cute is this sweatshirt for E?!  I didn’t think it was possible, but toddler clothes might be even cuter than baby clothes.
  7. Speaking of which, I remember distinctly sitting in the waiting room with Matt at the gender appointment and saying, “well, if it’s a girl, we won’t have to buy anything!” HA.  The second we left that appointment, like literally in the car, I started ordering.  Turns out I might just have a buying little things for cute little people problem.  Whatevs.  I am totally getting these boots to match E’s rain boots.
  8. And she needs her own swaddles.  It’s not like Eleanor is sharing.  Gah, I can already see the fights.
  9. We started decorating E’s big girl room that she will move into sometime in the next 5-6 months…trying to do it sort of gradually and before she really places permanence on the room she is in now…I will do a full post soon!  But, we have picked up a few pieces here and there like this pillowcase!
  10. I CANNOT wait to get an art table and chairs set up!  Just patiently waiting for a sale and then I will be snagging these up!

    What all are you loving right now?? Any big plans for the weekend??  Hope it’s a great one!
    Erin

Eight Months!

We officially have an eight month old!  Now, during these photo shoots, I avoid getting her to look at the camera because the second I get her attention she will attempt to stand to get the phone.  Which in a chair is not ideal, so she is basically never going to be looking at the camera again.  She is still sleeping around 11-12 hours a night without getting up to eat (which was not happening around month 4 and 5).  She takes a nap in the morning and a  nap in the afternoon.  She is back at the sitter during the day and she is a 100% better eater for the sitter, but a better napper at home.  She has two bottom teeth and has said “mama” and “up”.  I am not really counting them as her first words though until she says them with meaning.  Is that what you are supposed to do?  She has lifted herself up while saying up, so maybe we will count that!  It would sure be fitting for this on-the-go gal!  She crawls, stands up on everything, and has stood for a few seconds on her own!  She also mimics everything we do, grunts with displeasure, opens and closes her fist when you say “bye bye” or “Hi Eleanor!” and make the same motion.
She’s tried almost every fruit and vegetable on the planet and now we are giving her small bits of our food!  Feels so strange that she is ready for that!
She is just as sweet as can be and can’t believe we are getting ready to celebrate the big ONE!
We love you, E!

Good morning!  We spent the happiest day at the zoo yesterday!  It was the perfect temp and we got there in time to see Nora, the baby polar bear, who is only out for about an hour in the morning!  E also got to feed the giraffes, which again, we stumbled upon at just the perfect time!  Eleanor grabbed her Camera Teether and snapped the whole day!  She’s just the best.

Speaking of the best, these teethers are amazing.  They are so so easy for her to grab and to hang onto.  Another aspect I love is that it is easy for her to hold WHILE she gums it in her mouth.  With a lot of teethers it seems to be hard to accomplish both, especially having small enough parts that she can comfortably put in her mouth at this age.  Plus, aren’t they the cutest??

I am so excited to give away a $25 credit to one reader today!  Enter through the rafflecopter below!

…and in the meantime you can snag 15% off your purchase with code paris15!

Good luck and have a great weekend, friends!

*I was sent a teether for review, but, as always, opinions are my own

IMG_0132IMG_0117IMG_0103IMG_0116IMG_0107IMG_0131IMG_0133Y’all if you live in Columbus and you have not gone to Pistacia Vera, you absolutely must.  Nat, E, and I stopped in last Saturday for a ladies’ brunch and to pick up a pistachio mascarpone dacquoise for E’s baptism!  We ordered my favorite croque monsieur and went with the pistachio, strawberries and cream, and cafe au lait macarons.  It’s what dreams are made of…and then Eleanor tried to rip one off our plates.

Can you tell we are loving Natalie being in town?

Today we are headed to the zoo and then to Columbus Commons for a free concert tonight!    If you are in Columbus, definitely stop by!
…and stay tuned tomorrow for a fun giveaway!

Hope you all have a great day!
Erin

Hi, friends!  Natalie is in town this whole week so to give her a taste of Columbus, we headed out to a picnic in the park! We stopped in Brown Bag Deli and then headed to Schiller Park across the street!  It is so so fun having Aunt Nennie in town!  Eleanor is all over the place and it is so nice to have an extra pair of hands for these little outings!

E and I are wearing our matching t-shirt and onesie from Clothe Ohio.  I just love this company.  Not only do they have the cutest Ohio apparel, they also are a company with heart.  For every purchase, they donate to an Ohioan in need of clothing.  Through the end of July they are offering you all free shipping with any purchase with code planningforparis!  We love our local businesses, especially ones that give back.

Stay tuned for more from Nat’s visit in the next few days!  Happy Wednesday!
Erin
