Whoa, Baby! Watch that spending!

Since I’m currently unemployed freelancing, I really have to watch was I spend now. It’s not like I didn’t watch it before, but I kind of watched it with one eye closed. And even then the open eye was more like a wink. But now I’m fully awake, aware and in contact with my checkbook ledger on a daily basis.

The timing of this frugality couldn’t be more obnoxious because I really want to shop for Lesli’s baby. Did you catch that, reader? LESLI IS PREGNANT! (This is Lesli of “Susan and Lesli from college.“) She and her husband have been so good about hanging on to their little secret, but now that I’ve thrown it out there… well, it’s a secret no more. Their little bundle of sweetness arrives in May, and while we don’t know if they’ll have a boy or a girl, I’m glad that owls are great for both.

For example, how much does Lesli’s baby need these!

I found these little jewels while perusing baby stuff on Etsy (click the photo for the link) and I think they’d be perfect for a boy or girl. However, if she does have a girl, I’d be hard-pressed to resist these Little Piggies:

I lost an hour of my life on Etsy and had to force myself to leave before I whipped out my debit card. There is a serious level of creativity going on over there. It might just be my new favorite shopping spot… when I have money to spend, that is.
