Easter Bunny, you shouldn't have!

I've basically been excited to celebrate Lili's first Easter since the second Christmas ended. Growing up, Easter was a pretty big deal. My mom always did the whole nine yards with the egg hunt and the baskets as well as the family dinner (my favourite part, obv.) I'm excited to start our own traditions (egg tree, anyone?) and keep the others going as Lili gets older. This year there won't be an egg hunt, but her Easter basket is completely ready.

I had planned on picking up one of these for baby girl, but I cheaped out at the last second and decided I would make her one by hand. After a lot of sewing (read: swearing and throwing spools of thread) it looked like a Frankenbasketliner...so I said "eff it"..."eff" as in "forget" of course. So this year there will be no basket liner, and only time will tell if this is something that will be required. I'm kind of digging the plain basket with a simple bow at the moment.

Here's what I filled baby girl's first Easter Basket with. I know this is not exactly sane or logical to do for a child under the age of one, but I'm just too excited not to!

Boon Squirt Spoon - Ella's Kitchen Purees - Baby Mum Mum

Knit Monkey Rattle - Chicka Chicka Boom Boom - Moo, Baa, La La La!

The Runaway Bunny - Sophie Teething DouDou - Jellycat Bashful Bunny

Skip Hop Zoo Backpack Owl - Sophie Teething Rubber

Since Easter is the harbinger of spring for me, it can come aaaaany time now. Yep...any time.

Springing Forward

Friends, spring is in the air! Finally. I absolutely adore the slow pace of winter and all the "cozying up" but I'm usually about ready to jump out of my skin by April. 

Over the past few weeks, Torontonians have been given a small taste of the warm weather to come. As a result, I find myself idly daydreaming of warm summer breezes and bare chubby baby legs...Seriously, is there anything cuter than a baby in a romper? 

Here are my picks for baby girl's spring wardrobe:

Embroidered Chambray Top - Five Pocket Satin Trousers - Pink Cord Tiny Toms 

Belted Chambray Romper - Printed Tie Headband - Ruffle Dot Romper

Floral Pleat Dress - Smocked Top Chambray One Piece

And for my mama friends with boys, I give you my spring picks for the little men in your lives. Whoever said shopping for baby boys is not as fun as shopping for baby girls has obviously never heard of Zara Baby...

Ribbed Slub Crewneck - Trousers with Braces -  Striped Terry Zip One Piece 

 Natural Burlap Bimini Tiny Toms - Straw Fedora - Cardigan with Elbow Patches 

Shirt with Henley Crest - Sea Worthy Graphic Snap Tee

With Easter just around the corner, Casa B has been a veritable hive of activity. Loads of crafts in the works and in the docket. Look for upcoming posts on those as well as our recent trip to Ireland!
