i'm so excited, i just can't hide it- anymore!

today, after work, i went on a little mad dash around town. i checked out several garage sales, most notably, one with a baby bed which was not worth $25 or the 15min drive out of town. to soothe my disappointment at having found nothing noteworthy, i stopped in at one of the local secondhand stores and was magnetically drawn to the baby clothes. now, b/f i tell you this, i must remind some of you (sweet as you are...) that this is not a license to drive to the nearest clothing store and buy every cute thing that you see- this will be permissible, but not YET. :) so, for my blushing, but giddy admission- i bought baby clothes! as soon as i took them off the rack, i was unable to put them back. i was in a trance, imagining a darling little brown eyed, dark haired girl, with her chubby little baby legs kicking merrily- irresistibly cute in teeny flowered sundresses...

i s'pose i might've told you we're open to either a boy or girl, which is true, for the future. but this first time around we're really "panning" for a girl. today's indulgence reveals that i have inherited one of my mother's worst and best traits- a love for buying little girl clothes. i think it might be better than ice cream. *sigh*

well, here they are, 3 little outfits. gandalf had to examine them to make sure they were worthy, and then he lay down to guard them, for the 90 seconds they were on the floor. i doubt he would've been so passe were there anything live and squalling inside one of them, but for now they're harmless enough. they vary in size from 6-12 months, but they all seem equal... hmm...
