We received a fun baby shower guest book this week, and we have to share it with you! These photo books are by Adesso, and they allow guests to place their “just snapped” photo into a book, and leave a special message for the guest of honor. This would work great for a wedding, too! There are several designs of the book, made for standard digital prints, Fuji instant photos or even albums for Polaroid photos. The books are sturdy and stylish—designed to last. Check out the Adesso site for more information!

We had the pleasure of walking along the Champs-Élysées last weekend. We even climbed to the top of the Arc de Triomphe! What a view. The entire time I was in Europe, I noticed how many formal baby carriages strolled the streets, like this Silver Cross Pram. Certainly cities like Rome, Venice and Paris are very walkable, and many stylish moms consider their pram a fashion accessory. The babies looked quite pleased, too!

2010Ciao and Bonjour!
Filed Under (Photos) by mary on 31-03-2010
We are home! What a perfectly wonderful adventure we had! There is so much to tell you about. I did much of the planning for our first European adventure. But John selected this location for our final morning in Paris, and it was one of the prettiest places we visited during our trip. The Luxembourg Gardens. It does not get any more Parisian than this. Situated in the heart of the sixth arrondissement near the Latin Quarter, the park surrounds the Luxembourg Palace, which is now the seat of the French Senate. This location is one of the most kid-friendly areas of the city. Little ones can rent little sailboats to float in the main fountain on Wednesdays and on weekends. The park is also surrounded by the most stylish green chairs, ideal for relaxing and soaking it all in. I read that people love these chairs so much that you can actually purchase them somewhere in the city. There is also a gated playground and a carrousel on the grounds. In the days to come, I cannot wait to tell you all more about Italy and France!

I will be away for a couple of weeks, dolls! I will be catching up on some client work before leaving on a jet plane. How much fun are we going to have in Rome, Venice and Paris?! The beautiful blog This is Glamorous provided me with these inspiring images of Italy and France. The author of the blog also reminded me of the most fabulous quote, very appropriate for today:
“You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” Dr. Suess

Baby Texas…you are one great looking kid! We also know Texas’ mom, so we can assure you he is one lucky kid, too! Sasha sent us these amazing baby photos, taken by squaresville studios in Dallas! We love learning about great new photographers in our neck of the woods. This photographer did a great job capturing expressions on Texas’ face, and also utilizing beautiful light in the photos!

2010One of my favorite babies in the world is 21 weeks old already! Remember his fabulous shower? Garrett, you are a handsome little man! I visited Garrett in the hospital after he was born, and I saw firsthand how instantly his parents fell in love with him. His mom, Jean E., is one of my very best friends. That is all of us below, at my wedding. It is going to be so much fun watching little Garrett grow. Look at those cheeks–so kissable!
