Protective Uncle


Robby gave me an Etsy gift card a while ago and this weekend I finally got around to using it. I decided to buy a bonnet for the new baby. I love baby bonnets. While I wish I was as talented as my friend Marlo and sewed my own (check out her blog for pictures), I'm happy to purchase the talents of others. I really like the patterns the UB2 shop on etsy uses. Aren't they fun?

Robby was over when I mentioned that I was using his present. He walked over to the computer to check out my purchase and with a look of shock and horror declared "You can NOT use my gift card to make Reuben wear a bonnet." I wouldn't do that to Reuben! But it's nice to know Reuben's got family watching out for him if I go soft.

those are awesome. If I have a girl, I am definitely getting a bonnet for her. Calvin isn't allowed out of the house without a hat on, but I don't think a constant baseball hat is the right look for a baby girl.

Gorgeous! I love you doing all my research for me, for I truly get lost in Etsy. I will have to send you the link to my latest purchase. I'm pretty sure Poppy needs a bonnet but how are you going to choose? I want to know what you pick.
