There are so many things in this world that I would love to have but a) will never buy for myself, and b) could not afford right now even if I did want to buy them. That, my friends, is the beauty of a birthday, and mine is right around the corner. Here are some items that are on my birthday wish list this year…

1. Macy’s,  Keurig B60 Coffee Maker, Single Serve : This might be one of the greatest kitchen appliance I have ever used. For anybody who drinks a cup or 2 of coffee every day but not a whole pot, this is the perfect gift. No more cleaning a coffee pot. Ever again.
2. Overstock.com, KitchenAid 5 Speed Blender : Yes I want a blender for my birthday. And yes, it has to be this color.
3. Victoria’s Secret, Motorcycle Jacket : I love this jacket. Every time I get a Victoria’s Secret catalog in the mail I drool over it.
4. Old Navy, Women’s Sliver Wedge Boots: I really want some tall, flat boots in this camel color for the fall, and these are super cute without a super high price tag.
5. Amazon, Mikasa Cheers Too 16-ounce White Wine Glasses :  I got the original Mikasa Cheers white wine glasses as a graduation gift and would love to have the full set.
6. Target, Sex and the City 2 I loved the show and I love this movie. It was even better than the last one. I have the entire series on DVD as well as the first movie, so I need to complete my collection 🙂
7. Amazon, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse : Although it is not available yet, I am holding out hope it will be here by my birthday. I am a Twi-hard, what can I say.
8. Target, Tom Tom XL 340T GPS : I will be the first to admit that my sense of direction sucks. When I eventually leave the small college town I currently live in, a GPS for my car will be a must have.
9. Reebok,  RunTone Action Shoes : I just recently started running and I really want a pair of these shoes.  Who doesn’t want their butt to look better?
10. Direct From Mexico, Large Thick Talavera Cross : a) I love all things Mexican (especially food and decor), and b) I collect crosses

Oh and one more thing…

Chocolate Brown Wiener Dog

A brother or sister for Lily 🙂

I’m starting to think in advance to my hospital stay coming up in a few months. Yes, I’m panicking about many things: epidurals, possible c-sections, the health of my baby… and the condition of my bathrobe. Ladies, it’s not looking too good on the robe front over here. I think I must get a new one for the baby’s visitor’s sake. It’s only fair. Here are a few sassy numbers that I’m considering.

2. Amazon, Nautica Knit Robe
3. Target, Hooded Robe
4. Victoria’s Secret, Ultrasoft Robe

I’m not generally a huge fan of getting in a bathing suit, so when I do, I gotta have a cover-up.  And seeing as how I might be in a swimsuit a little more this summer because my kiddo loves the hell out of the baby pool, I’m probably going to need a stylin’ cover-up.

1. Old Navy, Women’s Ruffled Tube Dress
2. Dillards, Raisins Twisty Strap Coverup
3. Macys, Ralph Lauren Darcy Tunic Coverup
4. Victoria’s Secret, Terry Tiered empire dress

I have always gravitated towards flowy and loose tops. Before I lost the weight that I did pre-wedding, no one thought I needed to lose anything by looking at me. And when I would say I was dieting, they would tell me some tale of me being out of my mind- that I looked fine already.  I was good at disguising is what it was. Well, now that I’m pregnant, my pants are getting tight and my previously not round belly is starting to have a little done-lapped over my pants situation.  So enter my love of flowy tops. Here we go ladies, these are your best friend.. let me tell you. Prego or not.
