Trading In

Ah...May 3rd hasn't even gotten here yet, and I already find myself becoming more practical in my choice of accessories to purchase with the rapidly approaching arrival of our daughter. For instance.....

I got the following New Balance running shoes off of Zappos.com (have you ever been to that website? If you haven't, check it out immediately.). I really needed a new pair of running shoes - my Nike shoes were looking a little worse for wear - and these will be great for getting back into shape after the delivery, hopefully sooner than later!


But if I am to be honest with myself, I have to admit that I am secretly lusting over these stilettos from Alexander McQueen instead:


Check out that heel! I know they're insane, but they are too pretty for words....

On the purse front, I would love to get this great purse:


But will instead be purchasing in the next couple of weeks a much more practical diaper bag:


Wow, how times change! You've got to give me this, though - at least my diaper bag is kind of cute and not bright pink or covered with some cartoon characters!!!

I'm glad to report that Mom-mode doesn't last forever. I remember about a month after I had Colin I HAD to go shopping for myself (Target was the store of choice). Even for a while after that, most of my purchases were baby related but now I am an equal opportunity shopper! I do love the diaper bag of choice.
