I know you get your share of negative comments, and even criticism disguised as compliments- but one thing that is always obvious is just how much you love your girl. She is absolutely precious, and your love for her shines through! That’s really all that matters.

I’d read that about bilingual kids. L

Zulily does have a lot of crap especially on blow out days. I only shop for organic sales on zulily and companies I already know and love when they get featured there.
MyHabit is a different story though. Most (not all) of their stuff is high quality, expensive childrenswear. I still have my favorite companies there that I wait for sales on. When they do have their 70-80% off blowouts, you can get some really expensive brands for reasonable amounts (like NUNUNU BABY i first bought there) but they go literally within SECONDS of the sale going live.

In general it’s a big game of wait and see. But for me, it beats buying the stuff you see on ever other child ( not that I don’t have that too). Hope this help! :)

Bag, mug and cab crack me up :))))

I find it so cool that you can tell what the family is like and sometimes where they live (cab) by baby’s first words.

I can imagine lexis next words will be book, cat, dog, grandma, eat, ball, teddy bear. (All in Russian though)
I expect her to take a while to say them, cuz bilinguals take a bit longer to talk.

My girl’s new words: dog, waffle (waffa), bag, baby, milk, mug, cookie (cooka), cab. And today’s latest word: cake, ’cause we’ve been talking a ton about her birthday!

First off, Alexis is the cutest baby ever. She definitely looks like you, she just has her father’s eyes.
I wanted to ask, do you have any tips for shopping on Zulily and MyHabit. I go on there every now and then but on those days the inventory is just so trashy and cheap. Do you call dibs on all the cute stuff so no one else can have it?
You have the cutest family ever!

The skirt is actually pretty long ( i wouldn’t call it a mini). I just stay mindful of it and not bend too far, but I did stop wearing actual minis , because it’s just not possible with a baby. {It might look shorter than it really is, because i am tall so I have more leg real estate to cover. In high school my home room teacher always bitched at me for supposedly ” hemming my uniform skirt” because it looked shorter than on other girls to the point that my mom had to tell her off, because (of course) it was the same length as others lol)
