Little boys are such a joy! I recently had lunch with one of my favorite little guys, Andrew! It is so fun to see my friends’ babies grow. Below is a fun collection of modern boy items. The crib, chair ($1199) and dresser ($1295) are Serena & Lily. The dancing alligator ($20) and highchair ($180) are from Giggle.

TGIF, AListBaby friends! I am a big fan of baby gear that is safe, fun and stylish. The love of my life is also a big fan of all things automobile! These vintage-inspired speedsters and fire truck caught my eye! You can find them at LandofNod for $89. Have a wonderful weekend!

We received many adorable nurseries from AListBaby readers! Keep them coming! Today, we are featuring a monkey-themed room from our friend Sasha from Dallas. (It reminds us of our very favorite monkey, Curious George.) We love the wall decals and chic wall art above the changing table. We found the bedding set at Babies R’ Us, and the mobile is only $39. Great job, Sasha! 

Today we decided to share photos from the creators of one of our favorite nursery design blogs, Project Nursery. They have kindly guest blogged for us in the past, and today we want to share photos of the modern blue nursery that was one of the inspirations for their blog! The paint colors are Lake Placid and Decorator White, both from Benjamin Moore. Enjoy!

We found the greatest new bag line called Boodlebags, and we love their convenient diaper changing kit! There is just enough space for a diaper and some wipes, and the bag turns into a changing pad for baby! The best thing is, the fabrics are stylish and not overly “baby”, so the changing kit looks like it is one of your handbags. The kit is $35, and available online. We think this is a great option for changing baby at a restaurant.

Grandma used to sing: {I love Paris in the spring time…}

I have never been to Paris in the spring, but I do love Dallas this time of year! It was a gorgeous weekend. We did a little painting. It turned out great! I truly appreciate the intricate work done in this Paris-inspired nursery, below. The gold leaf monogram above the crib is lovely!

Thank you to everyone who sent us their gorgeous nursery photos! Keep them coming! We love them, and we cannot wait to start featuring them next week. In the meantime, check out this gorgeous nursery from HGTV’s Rate My Space. The french toile decor is accented by Benjamin Moore paint in Caramel Apple. And we spotted the same crib at Posh Tots! It is called Bonne Nuit, and sells for $2760. (We will keep you posted the next time Posh Tots has an online sale!)

Before we know it, the Easter bunny will be here! Growing up in the Midwest, my Easter Sunday memories consist of Easter Egg hunts in the snow after church…and we always had great prizes from Grandma. Our friends at Land of Nod have some great items to ensure your little chick has a happy day! Perfect dozen socks, $35; Hooded towel, $39;  and Bunny in the Box, $29.
