End Notes:
I apologize for my absence over the past few days, but my mother-in-law and sister-in-law have been here helping me get things ready for the increasingly imminent arrival of the baby. We’ve assembled a lot of furniture, selected and purchased rugs and fabric, and organized everything in sight. If you just look at how stylish these ladies are then you know why I completely trusted them to help me put together a sweet but not kitschy room for my little one.

P. looked fantastic in a suspended-neck halter and crisply pleated white skirt. (The skirt was a gift her mom. My M.I.L. is all about equipping good style in her daughters!) The metallic punch of P.’s skinny belt and sandals added extra polish to the whole look.

Meanwhile, my M.I.L. was wearing what P. and I termed a “fun cardigan,” not only for its black and white print of graphic scrawls but its neckline of black beads. She’s been raving about these Sofft sandals all week. They are incredibly comfortable but also right on trend: metallic, jeweled, and just a tiny heel for lift.

I am so thankful that these two are so excited about the arrival of baby e. that they came all the way from their respective homes to help me ready mine. Six more weeks until the due date! Aunty P. can’t wait!

You’re all lovely! Clearly, the nursery setup is in good hands. Do post some photos when it’s all done, will you?
I must agree with Sal!
You all look terrific!
It is lovely that you have such a nice relationship with your MIL and SIL. That is refreshing.
You all look fantastic! This baby obviously has quite the stylish genes already!
Do we get to see the gratuitous nursery shots? I Love seeing those!
Everyone looks fab! And if their style is any indication of their interior design skills, then baby E. will have the best looking nursery in town :)
Who took all these pictures?! They’re good. Also, all the outfits are perfect and very complementary. P.’s skirt is beautiful!
You all look ab-fab! Baby e. is sure to be one stylin’ kiddo, that’s for sure! :)
You all look great! I’ll echo spacegeek and say that it’s great you have such a great relationship with your in-laws. And, I also want to see photos of the finished nursery, if you feel like posting them. Congrats!
On an internet full of blogs that gripe about mother-in-laws, it’s incredibly nice to read about how positive your relationship is with yours! I like mine too… here’s to mother-in-laws!
A beautiful trio! Baby is in the best stylish hands :0)
Everyone looks so pretty!!!! I’m craving the s.i.l.’s outfit, so chic and simple!!!
Great picture and GREAT outfits!
