We bring home our cute bundles of joy from the hospital and we are unaware that in a year or so they will all be Elmo freaks. I don’t know what it is about that red animal that all the kids just LOVE him? My twins were no exception, they just had to have everything with “melmo” on it.

Again, I know I will be singing the praises of Etsy, but I just love handmade, natural things and creative people. I have found a seller that can help many parents with their need of anything and everything Elmo. Check out this handmade Elmo purse. Crocheted with Red, White, Black, and Orange yarn and the eyes and nose have the 3D look. It measures 7 x7 and has a velcro closure that is easy for little hands. They also have a matching crocheted Elmo hat and shirt!

Maybe your baby is too small to dress up for Halloween but you want to do something, or maybe you don’t want to pay a ton of money for a costume for a baby. What about just a hat for the baby for Halloween? He or she could be shrek, a skeleton, big bird , a puppy or Oscar the grouch. These hats are adorable and unique for any reason, I will be buying some of these for my new baby. For $13.99 each they will not break the bank either!

Here in New Jersey it has been a little cool the past few days. It reminds you to get ready for fall and all the clothes you have to buy for your kids!

They are made of soft fleecy cotton and are very easy to get on and off because they have no armholes. They are fringed with pompoms and has a tassle on the hood.

How cute are twins? Really, my little bundles of pink and blue that I came home from the hospital with were so adorable.
I did dress them matchy, matchy for a little while and for special occasions, but I do not any more.
I promise.
Well, I do dress them in the same color when we go to public places but that is for safety reasons.

I would have loved these shirts from minifashionista. They are adorable and would have been perfect fro my wonder twins!
