too many pink dresses, hair bows, and baby shoes
Am I the only one that has gone crazzzzzy shopping for baby clothes lately? My husband and my family are as guilty as I am! While waiting on the GCBC, we went a little crazy with the little dresses, floppy hats, and hairbows, trying to pass the time. All those who are guilty come forward! Hugs to everyone trying to get through this week of NOTHING HAPPENING!!!! Isn't it horrible?

There is absolutely no such thing as too many pink dresses, hair bows, and shoes!!
 Spring is barely here and Lauren already has so many summer clothes, she may never wear anything twice. I am shopping and my Mom is sewing!Happy shopping!

I just want to say that it doesn't end when your baby is home. I posted a couple of weeks ago about my buying clothing addiction and our daughter has been home for four months. A little girl can't have too many hats, bows, and pink dresses.

Biff- you should be proud of yourself, waiting that long. We have been shopping since we signed our agency contract. It is especially hard this time of the year with all the cute Easter and summer dresses. It certainly helps ease the pain though, don't it?!

I am an avid clothes shopper for Emma. I had promised my husband that I wouldn't buy her anymore clothes until after her birthday. She received so many cute summer outfits that I may not get my chance to pick out summer clothes for her.
Just to let you know that the shopping gets even worse after they come home....lolol.

Well, I'm a little late on the scene as my wonderful DD is home, but I bought stuff, and still do all the time. I try to limit it to the second hand store (lovely one in town). The worse part is that her whole wardrobe is full, thanks to a friend of mine. (Good thing we live in a big house and she's our first!), guess maybe it's a nesting thing?!? Don't feel bad....

I did the exact same thing while waiting for Gabriella. Unfortunately, my shopping addiction has only gotten worse since she's been home.
