We heart Bonjour MaeMae!

Ever since I was a little girl, I've been greatly offended by people saying "that's a cute boy" when the baby is really a girl and vice versa. When my little brother was a baby, people would say, "you have the cutest little sister." What?! I mean he would have trains and planes all over his little outfit. Come on, people. I'm sure I'm completely jinxing myself and I will someday make this mistake, but until then,  I knew I needed a solution for Charlotte.

So, how to solve this issue for my baby girl?? BOWS! And lots of them. The good news is one of my favorite people in the world, Monica, makes them and she makes them beautifully.

Y'all, Monica is so stinkin' talented and she has honed in on her creative outlet since her baby girl was born, Miss Mae Margot. While Mae naps, Monica is busy sewing away with some of the cutest fabrics you've ever seen and the coolest part about it is that anyone can buy them now on etsy!! Yay. Bonjour MaeMae is officially open for business and oh-so-precious. Go here for drool worthy bows for babies, little girls and even headbands for adults. http://www.etsy.com/shop/BonjourMaeMae. I mean my hair has taken a beating in the last month. I'm not sure I truly understood "hair loss" while reading post-partum symptoms, but my shower drain does. Gross. So, let's just say this girl has been wearing lots of headbands.

If you haven't signed up for Casey Wiegand's triple giveaway blog, hurry and do so now!! http://thewiegands.blogspot.com/2011/03/triple-giveaway.html. A precious Bonjour MaeMae headband was selected as one of the giveaway. Oh, and don't forget the free shipping code: CaseyShipsFree.

I think words are best expressed with illustrations or examples. Maybe this is why I like the Pioneer Woman's recipes? No, no, people, I haven't started cooking, but if I did cook, I would use her recipes. :) So, how about some Bonjour MaeMae bows and headbands on my little boogie?? Yay!!

This bow is the "Charlotte" named after my baby girl. We love the double ruffle bow and we have every color. You can say that I'm slightly obsessed. :)

How perfect is this bow? Hi Birdie! If you think I posed this dog, I didn't. She literally has to be by Charlotte at ALL times. So sweet!       
See, Toby is on the other side. Izzie was playing in the grass because let's be honest, she doesn't jump onto anything but the couch unless her life is in imminent danger. She can, but she just chooses not to. I love my little circus.

This is the "Marianne Posy." Cutest little polka dot fabric topped with pink chiffon. So dainty!!

Charlotte is clearly being raised by dogs. She has her tongue out at all times and now is panting when she gets excited. This cracks us up ALL day long. That cute little headband is the "Fifi Pom-Pom" and it some how goes with everything. 
One more of the "Fifi Pom-Pom" and the tongue.

This is the quintessential Bonjour MaeMae headband. Cool fabrics with a twist. This is the "Collette Posy." See I told you, coolest bows ever, right? No mistaken boys here. :)

And this finale photo is so bittersweet! Is my baby really SIX months old?? Big girl!
