I Want

Today, I have a case of the "I Wants"

"I Wants" are not "I Needs."  An "I Need" is something like a gallon of milk, shoelaces, or light bulbs.  "I Wants" include seven day trips to Santorini, Greece and double digit hair care products.

Usually when I want something, I send a link to Andrew telling him he can buy it for me and he generally responds.

"You are such a good wife and you really should have that. You should have two of those, so you have one to wear while the other is in the wash.  I'll add to my list of all the things I need to buy you once I sell the patent to my Anti-Eating Face Mask."

But today, I thought I'd send you my links, and then maybe you could send me your links.   Follow along,

Ted Baker is to Andrew what Kate Spade is to me.  The fabrics are woven from baby sheep dreams, and while the cuts are clean-line traditional, they have layers of surprising details imbued into each carefully crafted item.  I found this shirt for my Mister at MyHabit, and I could save $25 using the SUMMER25 coupon code, not to mention Free Shipping.  Aren't I a frugal fantasy spender?  And generous too.

Can you not see Coco's chubby arms bobbing beneath the cap sleeves and chubby legs dancing below the dress hem.  The colors are begging to flatter with her squishy olive skin, and The Mini Social wants her to have this frock for 25% off.

And for Baby Boyfriend, Dad would undoubtedly approve of this homage to Andrew button-up, but I love putting Levi in things that his Dad wouldn't even consider like these khaki and navy gingham shorts.

  2. I have been suffering from the "I wants" too here lately. Being that my husband and I are both grad students, there isn't much past the "we needs." I feel your pain.

    (The baby outfit is adorable.
