Indulgence: Skyflight Mobiles


I generally try to avoid using the birth of a baby as an excuse to buy a ton of junk. But I have my weak spots. One of my absolute favorite indulgences is mobiles. I love mobiles and so do babies.
We bought a swallow mobile for Reuben and I ended up becoming jealous because he spent so much time smiling and cooing at it instead of me. Unfortunately for the mobile it looked a little too realistic for Battle our cat and he dispatched each paper bird in a night of domestic sabotage. Finding our beloved little swallows knawed to pieces I almost threw him out.

So with the upcoming baby I've been on the look out for a replacement. I just found the most wonderful company Skyflight Mobiles. Their mobiles are big, high contrast and beautiful. The birds, butterflies, fish and other animals each sport the accurate markings of their species. I want to buy them all but I restrained myself and bought the new baby butterflies and Reuben the owls (Okay, honestly I bought both for myself) But I will hang each mobile in the kids' rooms.


Aren't these awesome?? You can see all their mobiles here.

Cool mobiles, and congrats on the upcoming baby, mine should be here any stinkin' day now ;-). She sure is taking her time though.
