blog swap fun!

because i think it's completely necessary to stay entirely too busy, on top of the 4000 other things i have going on, i thought i'd participate in a blog swap hosted by mama meredith at the tichenor family. she's super cute and always coming up with adorable swap ideas. she also has two precious boys and a third baby on the way. i don't know how she has time to do so much!

i was paired with melissa m who is going to be a mommy as well! melissa is 20 weeks along and i'm so excited for her. i put together a little "pregnancy survival kit". it was so hard to stay within the guidelines but i did my best:

for something orange, i found a fun necklace:

for something i love, i included palmer's cocoa butter... because every mama to be needs a good cream or lotion to prevent stretch marks!

something $1: E.L.F. lip gloss

this was one of my favorites... for something funny, i included a hand held fan. no doubt hot flashes come with pregnancy! 

and for something sweet, i included sweettarts... to me, they are the ULTIMATE sweet!

congrats melissa! can't wait to hear the gender news! i hope that your pregnancy continues to be super smooth.

melissa sent me some fabulous goodies that i couldn't wait to open up. she even thought of little perry!

such a cutie pie outfit for perry for something orange and tons of yummy sweets!

i have to be honest, i failed in the picture department because i couldn't wait to open up the starburst!

thanks, meredith, for organizing the fun swap! i can't wait to see what you have up your sleeve next!
