It's a boy!

Hi All

Sorry for the slackness in also not posting for a while, it’s taken me a few weeks to ease into 2009 and catch up with how fast its going by already :)

So for those of you that don’t already know, I too am pregnant and due in June this year (us EmBelISH girls don’t do anything in halves ;) We found out yesterday that we are having another little boy and all is going well, which is great news. As hubby and I have decided that we only want two children I have to say I felt a little bit disappointed yesterday with the news of another boy, all these thoughts flashed through my head, no dancing lessons or making cute little costumes, no having someone to share girly stuff with (even though I have to say I am not overly girly anyway) and that my life is going to be mainly male dominated and there will be extra smelly footy socks and dirty rooms to clean up and I won’t be able to buy all those cute pink frilly things I have been secretly converting on ETSY for the last weeks.

Oh well, lucky for me my fellow BrisStylers make a wide range of super cute boy thing and that our current little man Saxon is going to have a constant companion and best mate to grow up with.

Anyway that’s enough about me; check out some of the very cool boy’s things I happen to come across in my new search of all things blue and boyish! Looks like my credit card might be getting a bit of a workout after all...

1. Holy Pow Boardshort Bloomers! By Bettsy Kingston (these are just too cute)
2. Cheeky Monster T-shirt by Jettasnest (these monsters are just adorable)
3. Neon Blue - Dottie Baby Booties by Pedrosprout (What little boy doesn’t need his own cool pair of booties)
4. Baggy Shorts, Carp Fish by Hot Fudge (I LOVE this fabric!!!!)

Plus in other news, we are currently changing Sax’s room around into a space/robot theme (I will post some pics soon, promise) I can’t believe he will be 2! in a couple of weeks. The Dinosaur (or Dinodoor as Sax says) invites have gone out and my mum arrives on the Friday before to give me a hand so now I just need to work out the cake pattern and stuff the goodie bags and we are all good.

We are also off to a friend of ours from Playgroups 2 years old birthday on the weekend so I better get off the computer and start sewing that fairy cape I promised...
Take care, Bel xx

Its a boy, well two actually ;)

Hi All,

Well for those that have been wondering our good friend Monica (that we featured in our SSS a few weeks ago) finally did have her baby, a little boy named Sachin. We have yet to meet him or give him a big cuddle as he and his brother Raam have been unwell, but fingers crossed we will get to see him next week.

Also our other good friend Kate, also had a little boy last week. Oscar Alexander is a little brother for Anouk (one of Sax's favourite playmates). Kate loving all things crafty had been checking out Michelle from Pedrosprouts little booties way before little Oscar even appeared so I couldn't help myself and ordered him the little leaf pair this week :)

I have to say these are the cutest little baby shoes I have seen in a long time, and so well made. I highly recommend a purchase from Pedrosprout any day!

Have a great day all, don't forget Em and I (Plus Ali from Jellygnite) are at the St Willy's markets tomorrow at Keppera so if you are in the area don't forget to drop in and say Hi!

Bel xx
