New Baby

Obviously we are having wins all around. Because, you guys, baby JB is finally here! I've basically taken the past two months off from blogging to hang with muh little family. And to recover from the whole having a baby ordeal. Hello c-section, you were intense.

BUT- JB is so amazing. His decision to come three weeks early sent us into a scare, but he was ready to get into the real world. And nurse. Because that's all he wants to ever do.

He was born weighing 5 pounds 12 ounces with a head full of hair. He was tiny, but completely filled out. And he was/is perfectly healthy, too.

I can't believe he is here. And that we made him! What the ever loving what?!

Oh, and when we had his two week checkup, he weighed 8 pounds. The kid is growing. With him being five weeks now, who knows how much he weighs. I'm guessing 10.

He is fat. And we are so very in love with this child.

One of my favorite up and coming companies is Truly Sanctuary. They offer the coolest of cool tees for adults and children. I mean, their shirts are so super comfy, that I still practically live in my Bill Murray jaunt. People probably think I'm a wackadoodle for wearing it over and over, but it's okay. I think the same thing about them.

Dolls for Dolls

My child is crazy lucky. She is adorable, extremely loved, and gets all the good stuff. All the time. Like this rag doll she named Daisy from Mizy.me. It's a handmade cloth dolly that dresses better than I do. From the removable bow in her hair down to her red glittered shoes, this doll has major appeal.

Adrienne is really into undressing and redressing her babies, and this one is no different. Daisy's dress and fur stole can both be removed. Perfect for a child that mommies her babies. My heart just melts when I watch her imagination soar. She's so gentle and affectionate with her dolls. And if they've been really ornery, she'll put them in time out. I guess she's learning from the best.

Mizy.me was started by a young designer who worked for numerous big name brands. She decided to start her own business by making fashion dolls. And boy are we glad she did. Her take on the classic rag doll is amazing. They are now hip and feminine. No Raggedy Anns around these parts. Just stylish plush friends for my child to hug on. And that's just what she does.

On top of making super cute dolls for adults like me children, they also give back. Mizy.me recently created a doll that helps children with cancer. The Jude doll is all about finding beauty within. And it always helps to have a little friend to snuggle with when you aren't feeling well. Plus, 20% of the sales from that doll will go directly to St. Jude's hospital! And that makes so very happy. Helping people is what it's really all about.

I love how children are mostly oblivious to hardships. Everything is usually rainbows and unicorns and that's how it should be. Mizy.me just reinforces that kind of blissful kiddie lifestyle.

If you have fallen in love with this doll, check out all the other amazing ones at Mizy.me. There are some great sales going on right now! Mizy.me is also offering my readers 10% off their order! Use the coupon code CoffeeandCashmere at checkout!

Twotara Giveaway!! CLOSED

If you are anything like me, knowing what to get a soon to be mother at a baby shower is pretty easy. You get them onesies, gowns, footies, those types of things. In pastel pinks for girls and light blues for boys. No brainers. 

What about those parents who wait until birth to find out the gender of the baby? What? You are going to wait?! I couldn't even wait to get my Magic Nursery Dolls home to put the strange little dissolving gown in water. I was ripping the packet open in the car to find out if it was a boy or girl. Little girl! Whoo-boy!!

Twenty years later, when the real baby was in my tummy, I had to find out as soon as they were allowed to tell me. I needed to know these things. I was beyond thrilled to be able to get pink clothes and decor. Real talk. If we have a boy with our second pregnancy, our third go 'round would totes be a surprise. But, what am I even saying? I can't imagine more kids at all right now. One is plenty.

Back to the point of this blog post and the CONTEST. There are plenty of parents who want to wait to find out if it's a little boy or girl, and you still need to get them baby gifts. That's where the genius baby clothing company, Twotara, comes into play. They make infant clothing and accessories that are REVERSIBLE! Light pink on one side. Light blue on the other. How cool is that? The clothes are extremely warm and snugly. Another plus. They'd also be the perfect piece of handmedowns for the second, third, and I will stop there, child.

The footie and rompers have two small pockets on the booty. Adorbs.

Okay, let's get on with this Giveaway! I am absolutely excited to team up with Twotara to offer a reversible footie and hat gift-set (seen above) to one lucky Coffee and Cashmere reader!
