Reader Questions

Hi!

I love your blog! I've been checking it out for cute gift ideas for months now :)! My friend directed me to your site as I am also a southern girl located (temporarily) in the northeast. Anyway, I'm in the market for a cute overnight luggage set. My vera bradley is worn thin and I'd like to branch out and get something different. Please let me know if you have heard of any cute new brands through your blog.

Many thanks,

J

Hi J,

I have Vera Bradley so I'm not aware of any other cute brands. Girls, can you help J out?

Preppy Beginnings

My Mom is on a rampage cleaning all of my brother, sister and I's old baby clothes in anticipation of her first grandbaby. My sister was home from college this past weekend and sent me this pic of one of my old monogrammed sweaters. I guess now I know where I get my monogram obsession from. =)

Welcome Jason!

One of the docs at my hospital just had a baby boy and I was able to go visit him! He is precious! It was so much fun being in the maternity ward where I'll give birth in just 6 months! Wow! There were about 8 babies in the nursery and they were all so sweet and little. I can't believe I'm about to have my very own. Congrats doc on your beautiful baby boy!
