(before i talk swapping: THANK YOU to all who commented on my breastfeeding post. i loved reading every single one. i love the support you give and how we can happily unite as breastfeeding and formula feeding mamas. a bunch of you really made me laugh. almost so much that i peed myself. but, peeing yourself after giving birth is a post for another day.)

a couple weeks back i planned a little headband swap. remember that? i bet you guys thought i was going to forget to blog about it. have no fear, the post is here. i got paired with my girl, audrey. i am so happy i did! she is so sweet and funny, and even though we read each other’s blogs before, i feel like our friendship has grown since. don’t you agree, audrey? 😉 she has a little baby boy named george whose cheeks i want to squeeze. go on and peruse her blog, you will lalalove it. i promise.
{our packages: incognito}
shopping for audrey was super fun! she likes all things funky, sorta like me. we were clearly meant to be partners. after much hemming and hawing i had narrowed it down to two headbands, and when i just couldn’t decide… i got both! i did go a couple dollar bills over budget but i figured since i made the rules so i can break ’em, too. holla.
i got audrey a fabulous feather headband from lala’s closet. why, look right over thur —> they are a lovely sponsor of mine and offering 10% off of all your feathered needs! and i got her sweet little bow headband from reverberate. be sure to check them out, too!
audrey sent a beautiful bedazzled flower headband that i may be found wearing, in a little town in upstate new york, every day. how do you know me so well, girlfriend?
this is me. imagining us together. hanging out, ever so stylishly. i sent audrey an email of that strange picture of myself pointing at my head when i got the headband. she may have been creeped out, i’m not really sure though. audrey?
i am so happy this little swap happened and i hope you all enjoyed making new friends and rocking new headbands just as much as i did!
and since we are talking headbands, i must show you the headband that lisa from lala’s closet sent me, too. ahem. are you dying? lace, peachy color, feathers and is that a pearl i see? oh yes, it is. i love it, lisa! thanks so much!

I LOVE the peach feather one on your head. I will need to get that soon. I'll be linking up with my headband later today after I take a shower! 🙂 And OMG – I peed my pants when you mentioned peeing your pants! Oh, the things they don't tell you about childbirth…

My partner and I were the late entries and we actually each shipped ours out today!! I'm pumped!

Oh I love this! Those headbands are amazing! I wish I could rock a headband…but alas…I look weird in them 🙁 It's either a head problem or a face problem…can't decide!

i loved that you hosted the headband swap! the ones you got me were glorious…you really do know me yo! I LOVE THAT PINK FEATHER HEADBAND TOO! btw, i love that i can say i have a friend in new york. i bet it's not as cool say you have a friend in kansas. sucker! but seriously, thanks for getting all-up-in-my-life!

You're so welcome! I truly enjoyed the honesty. It was refreshing : ) You made ME laugh when you said you wished someone would've slapped you across the face and handed you some Target formula. Sooo funny!
Lots of love!
Laura
