Soooo, we were out shopping, all harmless like, buying birthday presents for Aidan, when I looked up and saw Maeve pushing a little stuffed animal around in a little toy pink stroller. She was so happy cruising it around the toy store, and her little face just broke my heart into a thousand pieces.
Ten seconds later, I was signing the credit card receipt and mentally rehearsing how I was going to explain this budgetary outlier to my husband. (It was way overpriced and I did not shop around or use a coupon. I had to buy it right.that.second.)
Alex,
Before you get mad at me for blowing our budget, please review the following photographs.
Signed,
Your Wife Who Is So, So Happy To Have A Daughter

I love it! Welcome to the world of being a mother to a daughter. That smile is pure happiness. What Daddy could be upset about that?

Very cute! I remember Miriam being obsessed with her pink stroller. She had to bring it on every walk we took with her favorite stuffed animal, or a doll, and toys for the doll, and a sweater for the doll, and… Glad you bought it. We all have to go crazy sometimes :^)
