I have many many favourite things. Some of my favorites you buy in a shop and some are moments, feelings and simple gestures. When I find something that I simply adore, I get the urge to share my finds.
1) I knew that I loved this personalized mug cozy from the first moment I first saw it. The colour is vibrant and I can think of a few friends that would appreciate this hugging their tea mug. I wish I could crochet and be able to whip up something like this, alas I don't even come close to having the skills.

2) My heart skipped a beat when my little sis told me it was Clinique bonus time! I love Clinique for their long lasting eyeshadow and get oodles of compliments whenever I wear their Lucky Penny shade. I restocked on shadow and happily took home the bonus gift. Even a bigger bonus is that the shade of lipstick is fantastic!
3) One of my favourite bloggers is Sarah James over at Whoorl. I've been reading her blog since before the term 'mommy blogger' was really thrown around. She recently shared a heart felt post and I'm passing it along to you. Post 1) Madeleine and Post 2) Snippets.
Love,

Looking for something?
Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!
