I Love Baby Stuff and $50 Giftcard to Baby Laylah Boutique

Wow... I suck lately. But I promise it's not my fault. Really, I'm already learning how to blame things on my child. Spawnie made me do it... Spawnie has been sucking the life out of me... Literally. And I'm just now getting around to writing the post that I had been meaning to post Thursday.

Oh but before I get into cute baby stuff let me tell you... Tuesday I'll be answering your questions from the "Ask me anything" post on my MomTV Show. What I don't answer there I'll type out and post here. I'll also figure out if there's a way for me to embed the show into a post on my blog so you can watch it if you miss it. I'll be LIVE Tuesday at 10:30am EST!

Now on to cute baby stuff. I LOVE looking at it, but I CAN'T STAND not knowing if I should buy the cute little sporty blue shoes, or the adorable flowery pink shoes. It's weird that I even like looking at shoes in the first place cause I HATE shoes. I wear a size 11 and it's nearly impossible to find adorable cute shoes in my size (and I'm praying my feet won't get bigger during pregnancy though I hear that's a symptom).

If I have a girl I want her shoe collection to look like this:They are from Baby Laylah Boutique, and some are as little as $5 a pair!! Cute, AND a bargain!

It's so weird how it could go either way (obviously) and according to the Chinese lunar calendar I rely so much on, it really depends if the DOC was September 31st or October 1st... And it could be either.

I had a dream I was having a girl, and I can't help but think/hope I am, so I'm naturally looking at more girl things, but I can't help but feel a little guilty in case Spawnie is a boy.

Baby Laylah Boutique is a cute little shop with unique and chic fashion for babies and children. Their boy stuff makes me excited to have a boy... In case that's what Spawnie is. I really like this adorable beanie.. Though I must admit I think the cute little boy model is part of the reason I like it. I can't help but wonder if my son would look a little like that. Yes... I tend to shop from people with cute baby models. Hint to companies: Hire biracial and ethnic babies!Same with this cute tutu from the same shop and the kid modeling it.My little girl will have a collection of tutus.. I'm not sure why but I'm obsessed with them. Where do little girls even wear these things anyway? I'm such a girlie girl so I think these things are just the epitome of girlie. The tutu's from this shop start at $15!I've chatted with Danielle, creator, via email a few times. She first got the idea of starting an online boutique when her son Rasean was born. He was born in the month of January (like me, woop!) and living in Wisconsin where it was cold and they spent a lot of time in the house.She spent a lot of time shopping online for unique clothes and special things for him. Last year she and her husband were blessed with a little girl, Laylah Rose. Again, being the shopping mommy that she is spent a lot of time online looking for those one of a kind finds. She especially loves to find things that are unique and will make someone ask "Where did you get that?"

She opened Baby Laylah Boutique to help other people find unique and chic fashion and accessories for their little loved ones and to put a smile on someone's face.
Her favorite thing about what she does is searching for product lines to carry that will make her store unique and different from the rest. "Right now...starting out...a lot of what I have is similar to many other online boutiques..but I am determined to find a niche and make it the online boutique of choice! Even if I have to get crafty myself!" she said.

I know it's crazy but one of the things I REALLY REALLY want to dress my little boy up in is suits, and little girls in dresses (once again, with the girlie thing). I bought one of my friend's little boys a complete suit set when he was first born cause I think it makes them looks so stylish!

I KNOW kids just get it messy, and they grow so fast, but they look SO CUTE all dressed up! I love vests, and ties, and dresses and bows! Oh I can't wait to know what you are Spawnie!

The shop has adorable products for boys and girls, and mom! There are things from diaper bags to tutus to diaper cakes! And there's something in every price range of shoppers. Danielle also is just starting out so be sure to check back to see what designers she's adding.
