the lamb shop


i had to wake him a little early from his nap for a doctor's appointment last friday, just too cute all cuddled up... what you can't see is how he lays on top of his lambie. we are SO in trouble if we ever forget that lambie at bedtime, it is his sleep staple! and i also think why he never puts up a fight at naptime or bedtime b/c he loves that lambie. since this one was a baby gift when he was born, we had to go to the exact shop in lake forest, IL and buy a "stunt double" lambie for him to keep at school for naptime. also we needed a second one in case lamb needs a bath which is at least once a week and often during naptime. it has worked out perfectly!

so down the street from the lambie shop is the cutest children's boutique, Pennies from Heaven. they have tons of fancy, expensive, beautiful and personalized clothing. they said they try to put out sample outfits with fashion-forward names, soooooooo i was thrilled to see this!!!


the saleswoman said young moms and pregnant moms are always asking what names are most popular for personalized clothing. they are getting ideas, i know the feeling, i got a kick out of checking out all the other names on the beautiful clothes! i can't wait to get him a personalized norwegian snow hat with ear flaps but i want to wait until fall to make sure it fits his big noggin!


and how cute are these goldens who were parked outside??!!!!

It is fun to see the name you've chosen touted as the next best thing.

I totally understand the desire for another Lamb. Unfortunately, we never could find another one exactly the same. So Mr. Lamb's baths are well-timed.
