Super cute, and no guilt about spending the $$$$ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-380651 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 04:06:13 +0000 SugarplumsMom 380651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I remember thinking how I had to have those cute baby Uggs for our super cooold winters. Now 5 months later, I am so happy I didn't buy them!! DD kinda has big feet and would have never fit them. And even if they did fit, whenever we're out she's in her bundler and it's already toasty - her feet would be sweating with multiple layers of sheepskin!</p> <p>But somethings are so cute, it's worth wearing once (just be sure to take a picture)! Haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-380647 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 02:42:48 +0000 shopaholic 380647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: I found this old thread when I searched Juicy Couture! :) I find myself "splurging" the most on JC items - they're just such girly overload of cuteness I can't resist! Oh, and I have told DH about the baby Uggs. So freakin cute! I'm going to wait for baby's first winter and she will get some! I already bought her a pair of black Bearpaws (lookalike uggs). And I found some baby Joe's jeggings (like mom's) at Nordstroms Rack too! But seriously, all the JC stuff is killing me! I will easily spend 4-5xs more on that than anything else.<br /> Can't wait to see Harper and Kaitlyn in all their outfits! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-195217 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 14:00:30 +0000 chopsuey 195217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: HAha.

DH wears Sevens, so they're little mini versions of his! Another mega ridiculous purchase!!!</p> <p>Aaaaahhhh- somebody stoooooppppp meeeeeeee!!!!!!! </p> <p><a href="http://s1152.photobucket.com/albums/p498/jholler25/?action=view&amp;current=2def7d76.jpg"><img src="http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/p498/jholler25/2def7d76.jpg" alt="Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos" /></a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-194161 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 15:06:38 +0000 sslm 194161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Those baby Uggs are killing me! I actually don't like Uggs, but for babies they are so cute!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-194146 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 15:01:04 +0000 SAHM0811 194146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: yes the size small is big!! honestly, my girls have long feet for babies and they were 6-9 months at the start of wearing them. My almost 1 year old can still wear them if I really try! too bad they don't make them smaller for newborns... I'm sure your 1-2 month old will fit in them, they just might look huge but if it's just for pics, it might be okay esp close to around 3 months? Either that, or she can wear them for a one-year old photo shoot around Dec next year? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-193720 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:07:08 +0000 PrincessBaby 193720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: thank you! I looked at them in person at Nordstrom (DH threw me some MAJOR side-eye but whatevs) and the small looked big! We live in south FL so it's only cold for a few weeks in Dec/Jan and she's due Dec 7. By Feb/Mar it's back to 80 everyday...Do you think I can make them work on a 1 mos/2mos old? I just dont know how little/big baby feet are. And I really want them for baby pics bc I think it's just too hilariously cute:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-193718 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:06:06 +0000 LuLu Mom 193718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have tried to keep my crazy purchases to a minimum since we are really trying to budget right now due to some very large unexpected expenses lately. But I love baby girl clothes, so I know I will probably splurge, like the Baby Uggs...so cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-193704 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 10:50:35 +0000 SAHM0811 193704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: both DDs were wearing size small baby Uggs at around 6-9 months... hope this helps! definitely keep your receipts though in case it doesn't work out. I also usually buy these sorts of season-specific things closer to the time when they'll be wearing them, but I know you're probably excited to do a bunch of shopping now :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192389 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 13:28:50 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 192389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@COCO: I knowwww...they emailed me and told me and I was like..."eeeekkk---I NEED TO STOP!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192386 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 13:19:56 +0000 PrincessBaby 192386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chrispygal: Dude, I think PBK is TOTALLY worth it!!!

Its insane....I figure: you only have a newborn once? Then, they grow up and want to pick out their own clothes.<br /> I want Ed Hardy onesies.....<br /> a Northface bunting<br /> These aren't pricey but they will not last long with his growing feet: I already got him crocs &amp; now I want RL sheep loafers:</p> <p><a href="http://i.ebayimg.com/t/ED-HARDY-BABY-3-6MT-BOYS-7-DAYS-WEEK-ONE-PIECE-SET-FREE-EXPEDITED-/00/s/NTQyWDM3NQ==/$(KGrHqFHJBEE9pqNfNqvBPiQnkjZ1g~~60_3.JPG" rel="nofollow">http://i.ebayimg.com/t/ED-HARDY-BABY-3-6MT-BOYS-7-DAYS-WEEK-ONE-PIECE-SET-FREE-EXPEDITED-/00/s/NTQyWDM3NQ==/$(KGrHqFHJBEE9pqNfNqvBPiQnkjZ1g~~60_3.JPG</a> </p> <p>and of course his holiday tux:</p> <p>(link wont work, nevermind!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192357 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 12:17:34 +0000 Mrs. Pen 192357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: hahaha go figure that baby shoes be functional ;) lol just teasing you!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192352 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 12:09:23 +0000 chrispygal 192352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say my biggest splurge has been definitely been all the Pottery Barn Kids stuff we've bought - bedding, sheets, towels, blankets, changing cover pads, curtains, etc. I think I spent $1,000 at PBK the night after our shower to order all the stuff I really wanted but didn't get (no one bought anything off PBK registry). Total CRAZY PANTS!! lol. That being said, we love everything we ordered and don't regret it at all. </p> <p>Regarding clothes, I am really really really trying to control myself. I know she's going to be a walking billboard for Gymboree. My DH has no idea what he is in for. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192349 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 12:04:10 +0000 PrincessBaby 192349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bree72: My coworker said that Toms are the best for not falling off...Her daughters have them in silver and pink glitter and they are so freakin' cute!

It would have been much worse had he been a girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192208 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 07:44:44 +0000 Mrs. Pen 192208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: haha you are too funny!<br /> Totally stalk sample sale websites - gilt, totsy, zulily, beyond the rack and ideeli - I have seen baby uggs on sample sale! </p> <p>I have a boy so I'm not too bad but I totally plan to buy him, DH and me matching TOMS what he starts walking hehe!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm/page/2#post-192204 Sat, 16 Jun 2012 07:37:13 +0000 boiledpnut 192204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only thing we plan on spending a good amount of money on are things that we can use for an extended period of time. Babies grow way too fast and we'd rather have a bunch of cute stuff than only a few high priced cute things. Babies don't care about brands anyway. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191731 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 15:19:50 +0000 rachiecakes 191731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: aah! a little LBD, I can't take it - sooo cute! &lt;3</p> <p>DS has some baby L.A.M.B. shoes and a few pairs of super sweet designer baby jeans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191708 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 15:06:33 +0000 wheres_c 191708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: Yeah i'm going to get an early scan. My anatomy is scheduled Aug 2nd, but mom will be visiting July 11th and wants to see the baby.<br /> Then it's big spending time $$$$! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191650 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 14:17:00 +0000 purrpletulips 191650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't really splurged on anything for DD and probably won't for LO#2 once they arrive. I think the closest I came was to get a pair of Keen sandals at a consignment shop (retail is $45, I paid $4.50 and they looked brand new). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191645 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 14:11:28 +0000 loveisstrange 191645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@heartsnsunshine: Haha! That black tutu is the first one I've made but it was SO EASY. It actually has a hot pink ribbon waistband and a huge bow in the back too. LO pretty much wears a headband and flower/bow every single time we leave the house. </p> <p>@jholler25: Thank you! I think she's pretty adorable. &lt;3 I'm probably biased though. Little girls are so. much. fun. Im super girly, so I dress her in all manner of ridiculous clothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191644 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 14:11:18 +0000 Periwinkle 191644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We haven't bought anything yet and probably won't until much closer to when the baby is born. Also, I am pretty frugal but know that if I see something that I MUST have, I'll prob cave and get it :) We're not finding out the gender so it will be a little tougher, but still... If it's that cute...!</p> <p>P.S. love the Uggs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191636 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 14:00:10 +0000 eeh 191636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm cheap and know we'll be gifted a lot of clothes so a splurge in my book is anything not on clearance. My thoughts are that I'm not spending a fortune on clothing for someone who poops their pants. </p> <p>That being said..I definitely like to buy quality items when it comes to things like strollers, car seats, etc. so those would be splurges in my book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191614 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 13:45:09 +0000 heartsnsunshine 191614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: That is so adorable!

DH and I really really hope we are having a girl... but for our bank account it'll be better to have a boy... I can't wait to start gender shopping! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-buy-mega-ridiculous-stuff-for-baby-as-a-ftm#post-191584 Fri, 15 Jun 2012 13:13:44 +0000 PrincessBaby 191584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: Okay the first thing that popped into my brain was "STOP IT!"
