We brought home our little "monkey" on Friday! 

I'm so in love...and exhausted.

Past Due

My due date came and went yesterday. Luke and I spent a few hours at the doctor's office (mostly waiting, I'm so over that part!) and the doctor kinda laughed and said we'll probably see you next week. Great. NOT! I guess there hasn't been much progress happening down there. I was in a foul mood for the rest of the day (poor husband). I mean, I didn't expect the little guy to come out on his actual due date, but I'm not really excited about waiting another week either. A friend of ours told us that Baby D probably just takes after his parents, perpetually and "fashionably" late! Probably. I'm sitting at the office as we speak, experiencing some minor cramps (contractions?!), so hopefully I'll have an exciting announcement for everyone in a few days! 

Full Term - 40 weeks!

Fall Favorites

Hello! Hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend. I was lucky enough to have Friday-Tuesday off from work, so needless to say I had a good time. It's hard to be back at work, especially knowing that I'm only 11 days away from my due date! I'm not sure how fashionable my fall will be, with the arrival of Baby D, but that doesn't mean I can't share my favorite finds with you. Today, I'm featured over at 101 Things I Love, sharing my Fall Favs. Please go check it out here. And while you're there, check out Johanna's adorable new baby girl, Lola. She's so sweet! 

Since deciding on only five favorite things was pretty hard (nearly impossible), I wanted to share a few of my "runner ups"... 1. Denim Boyshirt, I'm still obsessing over chambray too 2. Sienna Fringe Boot, pricey but super cute 3. AEppelTreow Wine, yup this girl is ready to have a real drink and can't wait to go back to this Wisconsin winery in October 4. Gold Healing Crystal Necklace, not sure about its powers but cute nonetheless 5. Aden + Anais Swaddlers, so soft and sweet I might just wrap myself up in one if the Chicago weather ever turns cool! How about you? What are you excited about this fall?
