Sweet Melissa.

My friend Rachel is having a baby, a little girl named Melissa, in June - and so today, we met to get our nails done. She looks fabulous at 9 months pregnant. It was a great girly date (and my nails sure did need it!):


I went with Lincoln Park on my toes (I'm into the dark purple and don't know why - and is it weird to post pictures of your feet on the internet?)

And a sheer shimmery glitter for the nails that I didn't get the name of - 
If you peek in the background of that pic, you can see my project for a bridal shower coming up!! I was working on the favors. 


Now that Rachel has had her shower, I can also share with you the adorableness I found on etsy for her baby shower present:
I got a baby blanket, bib, and burp cloth set off etsy from this shop, Sew Divine. She hand makes everything and her proceeds go to orphans around the world. She's the mom of one of my favorite bloggers and pretend friend, Katie from Marriage Confessions. The baby set was just too cute to pass up and since little Melissa is going to just be so cute and styling, I had to get it for Rachel's baby shower. 


Having no babies of my own, I can't vouch for how practical they are but Katie of Marriage Confessions fame swears up and down by the burp cloths - which is good enough for me. 


Gotta love fun afternoons out with girlfriends to reenergize your spirits!

Burp cloths are a MUST :) Don't you think it's time for a little Jasper???? I hope you have a great summer and enjoy your time off from school.
