Lee, congratulations! New jobs are awesome!
What I'm doing? Getting up way to early tomorrow to drive up to mountain view. Going to a hockey tournament in San Jose. Seeing friends.
Mal: Does.. um.. does this seem kind of tight? Kaylee: Shows off your backside.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
And having Dutch babies?

Good gift, sara!
When we picked Noah up at daycare, C, the provider had him in an exersaucer. "He loves this! Does he use the one you have at home?"
"Um. We don't have one."
"Really? I put him in and he immediately bounced, swiveled and continued to move around, looking for more toys."
Well, we know have an exersaucer. She's right. HE LOVES IT.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, you guys, where are the awesome baby stores again? I just remembered a good friend is having a baby in a couple of weeks, and there's apparently no shower, so I'd better get on the stick myself!

What do you want to get, Jesse?
And is this a go to the store or internet order?

Monday works for me! I shall email.
It's been too long since I bought Fred Steak. I need to do that.

Oh, I guess I could go to an actual store. Maybe this one: [link]
Here's my problem: I have issues with the $25 onesie. (cheapness issues) But they're so cute!
(OMG, holy crap, Sons and Daughters has $45 onesies!! Forget that!)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Jesse, the Buy Buy Baby in Chelsea (next to the Whole Foods) is the good big box baby store in NYC. (Don't bother with the Babies R'Us in Union Square - it's crap.)
For brands other than Carters and Gerber, Boing Boing in Park Slope is good, or Area Kids in Carroll Gardens. (Sorry, I only know Brooklyn! I'm sure there are overpriced yuppie baby stores in Queens and Manhattan too...) Oh wait - Metro Minis is on the Upper East Side.

Online: Oompa toys rock. As do soft things from Soft things, including the chewie veggies from Under the Nile.
Good gift? Diaper bag filled with random things like diaper cream, baby soap (I love the scent free mustela for super sensitive skin), cheek stick, a pretty wipe case etc.
If you have an urge to go to a store I love Right Start, but the closest one to you is in White Plains.
