pedicures (see: me time) / confessions of a concealaholic (to combat tired eyes) / pretty dress (to hide post-baby weight) / Veev Acai liquor (hello summer cocktails) / go girl energy drinks (how I’ve missed you!) / yoga classes (to get rid of said post-baby weight)
I know, baby registries are for babies. I get it. Our little boy is going to be fully stocked with the latest and greatest clothes, toys, and gadgets. But don’t you think mommas deserve a little love too? Anyone? Bueller? If I could add these items to my baby registry without being judged, I most certainly would. Call me selfish, but I think baby registries should have a small “mommy” section too.
{ Please note: if you want to sneak a few go girl energy drinks into my diaper cake, I will kiss you. On the mouth. }
I DO think Mamas should get a little something! I mean, really, how hard is it to just lie around being cute all day after somebody else does all the work?!

Seriously! Babies have it SO easy. They don’t even have to bathe and they look cute.
I’m with ya! Maybe these would be good “push presents” that hubby could get you?

I’m pretty sure if any “push present” discussion is had, it will involve diamonds, not undereye concealer
Girl, I totally think you should include these on your registry! Or make a mommy registery. You are GROWING A HUMAN! You deserve a little somethin-somethin’. I can totally get behind all of these choices… I just wish wish wish Utah had Go Girly energy!!! Ever since I first heard you talking about such a delicious sounding drink I’ve wanted one, and I’ve even checked MACEY’S (they have everything Wal-Mart doesn’t) and no luck. Boo!

I think they ship?! You should check out their website! Seriously, SO DELICIOUS.
I’d love it if I saw something fun for the parents on a baby registry! When my husband and I got married, we added a couple fun things (such as zebra peep-toe heels for me!) to our wedding registry. We didn’t think anyone would get these non-house related things for us, but after the wedding date everything not yet purchased on the registry would be 20% off so we figured we might as well add them to buy later. But one of my cousins was delighted because she always likes to get brides, grooms, or parents-to-be something not related to the Big Event. So I got those heels! Now I do that for others, too: get something practical and necessary for baby or home, and something totally fun just because!
So if you’re registered at a store that sells more than just baby things, definitely add something fun and frivolous that you and Brett want just because you deserve it!

That’s cute….my friend Ashley got a pair of gorgeous over-the-knee boots at her baby shower and I remember thinking THAT IS BRILLIANT.
Hey Ash –
Since the baby is due on Mother’s Day – hopefully he will be born on time and all of these items will make wonderful first Mother’s Day gifts!!
But I agree with everyone else – add to your registry!
Love you, Mom
True that. I’ll let Brett know.
I definitely think you can add things to your registry- I mean let’s be honest all baby gifts are really for the parents anyway, so why not have something REALLY for the parents? haha

Love your list! Hopefully husband will take note and get all these things for you once you deliver!
Michelle´s last [type] ..Book Club
Ha I never even thought of that. Do it up and hopefully someone sweet will help you out
yess, i definitely need to add these things to my general life registry. can we just have those? life registries? i think that should totally be a thing.

This is why I always bring a pampering gift to baby showers for the Mama. Massage gift certificate anyone?
It’s so nice to see a post like this! I have to admit…I really do not read blogs about babies (normally), but I really like yours. I think your weekly updates are cute, and that’s why I’ve kept reading! But it’s so refreshing to see a post where moms and moms-to-be talk about some “me” time.
