1) My hands are REALLY dry. Anyone got something good to recommend to help them? It's itchy/painful and regular lotion isn't doing anything right about now. I have some other ideas, but I figured I'd see what others recommend.
2) I'm starting to work on Ryan's nursery. I've been searching for cute crib bedding, and I'm not having a ton of luck. Does anyone know of someone who makes it? Like if I pick out fabric...they'll make the stuff?
3) Who knows of cute blogs/websites that sell cute baby boy stuff? I'm not having much luck finding stuff.
4) Where are some good places to get baby furniture? I found one place I really like (I fell in LOVE with this set--crib and other piece). But Jess and I wanna look around some more before we buy. Any ideas would be appreciated.
5) Since my mother-in-law is leaving to Argentina at the end of June (Did I ever mention that? My father-in-law got called as a mission president. So they are heading out to Argentina for 3 years.) we decided to have my baby shower before she goes. If any of you bloggy friends want an invite...you are more than welcome to come! It'd be a great time to meet you all! Just send me your address.
Coconut Oil is the best for lotion...it feels a little oily for a minute but soaks right in to the skin and no longer feels oily.
ReplyDeleteI went to Crismons baby boutique on University to get my crib. They have some cute clothes sometimes too.
I want an invite to your shower and I want to help do something for it too!!!
We are all well again at our house so we need to go out :)
1. try Aveda's hand lotion. its called hand repair and i promise you won't be disappointed.
ReplyDelete2.There is a lady I know who can do ANYTHING, she is amazing but she is pricey. take a look at her stuff online at the lucky princess.com. if you want her number ill give it to you. what am i saying, ask Kelsie Webster she knows her too!
As for the rest good luck!!
I have a hand condition and I use Aveeno intense relief. It's the one with the magenta/red lid and it works wonders!!!
ReplyDelete1. I have dry skin too. I don't have anything special- I just reapply A LOT!
ReplyDelete2/3. I don't know of anything special
4. We got Brody's crib/daybed at Room 4 Baby in Mesa.. it was on sale and SUCH a good deal!
5. I WISH I could be there! BUMMER!
My favorite lotion to use is Gold Bond Ultimate Healing! Its the best!
ReplyDeleteI wish I lived closer cause I would surely love to come to the shower!
ooo lucky princess is good! try her. or look on etsy.
ReplyDeletemy hands used to kill and they were so chapped, especially when i had both of my kids with all the hand washing i did. first, i bought the hand soap with lotion in it a bath and body and then i bought some special hand soap that i would put on after everytime i washed my hands.
baby furniture...what the price limit? i always just like looking online.
I use Cocoa Butter when my hands are crazy dry.
ReplyDeleteDont know of anyone that makes bedding.
My sis in law makes the cutest baby boy stuff. She has a shop on facebook called Bitsy Jane
I live in a diferent country than you so I dont think my furniture suggestions would help....lol.
I totally wish I could some to your shower. Post an invite so we can see!!!
sorry.. i can't help you with any of this stuff... :(
ReplyDeleteBUT! my cousin is serving in argentina! what mission are your in-laws serving in?
ps: you're cute! i can't wait to see how you're doing your nursery!
Ill be home in june sometime so definitely send me one!!

Thanks love!!
i'm so excited for your baby boy! I was reading about your in laws going on a mission, then i remembered you're a gulbrandsen. I always forget your related to Brad! thats going to be a lucky little boy :)
ReplyDeleteHello! I'm kinda in the same boat as you as far as a nursery because we never got one done for Brandom since we are moving! I swear it is much more difficult to find cute boy stuff. I had no problem with Audrey.
ReplyDeleteHave you checked bedding at Pottery Barn? Sometimes they have cute stuff for boys, but I haven't checked recently.
Let me know if you find a good place.
If I don't get an invite I will hurt you. Even if you're carrying my god-baby. I call dibs on godmother. and by god mother i mean fairy godmother. I will turn pumpkins into horse-drawn carriages.
ReplyDeleteKBYE!
Oh, and if you need me to bring anything, let me know!
ReplyDeleteI heard bye bye baby in Chandler is AWESOME! I haven't been there, but my friend talks about that place all the time! I just sold all Rykers clothes that he has grown out of otherwise I would have let you checked them out! Good luck! Having a Boy is soooo much fun!
ReplyDeleteI think it's called Udderly Smooth. You can get it at WalMart. My hands get so dry they crack and bleed. This stuff is A.MA.ZING.
ReplyDeleteSomeone mentioned Coconut Oil. I love that stuff too. It's the best as a before bed moisturizer. It reduces/prevents wrinkles and even helps get rid of zits because it's a natural antibiotic or something like that. It makes your face glow. Awesome.
As for cute boy stuff... There isn't really any such thing. lol. No, there is, but good luck finding it. :)
Hey Britney - I know it's so random for me to comment on here, but your blog is adorable and I hear updates about April, your mom and you through Tracie.
ReplyDeleteIf you're still looking for somebody to make a crib set, let me know - sewing is my new addiction and I could definitely do a custom set for you! I recently made a new cover, sheets and stuff for a girly bassinet for my friend's new baby and it was so much fun! I've been wanting to do some more crib stuff and thought about selling it on etsy or something... I can't get enough of making cute things!!
Anyway, you can email me at caminuttall@msn.com or call or text at 9288997684 if you're interested at all :o)
Congrats on your cute little family in progress!! And tell your sweet mom I said hello!!
