It’s a…..

Monday, September 21st, 2009
The big question….should you find out or not? While many new parents can’t wait to find out the sex of their baby, others are happy to wait. It’s one of the true surprises in life, they say. However having a “surprise” baby can prove a bit challenging when decorating the nursery. If you don’t love neutrals or yellow and green, you may be at a loss for what to do in the room. At the very least, choose furniture in a neutral color, especially if you are having your first baby. Ideally, you’ll pass on the furniture to baby No. 2. You can then wait to decorate the nursery or…come see us at baby coco. We have a solution for surprises! You can sit down with us and choose boy bedding and accessories and girl bedding and accessories. Bring us the doctor’s note revealing the sex in a sealed envelope. We’ll open it and order the right stuff for you! We’ll have you put down a flat deposit, so there is no hint of the gender. We’ll hold everything for you until the baby arrives and then make delivery or pickup arrangements when the special day arrives! We take this secret very seriously–our staff knows that telling is a firing offense! But we’d never tell anyway. It’s always exciting waiting for you to find out for yourself! If you’d still like to find out, check out ohdeedoh for fun ways to share the news with family and friends.

Carry on

Lemon Curry Hobo
We love, love, love bags here at baby coco. Have I mentioned that before? Our favorites are diaper bags disguised to look like fabulous handbags. We believe there is no reason to carry a bag post-baby, that you would never carry pre-baby. You just need a bigger bag. With lots of pockets. And maybe a changing pad. Our number one favorite is the Mercer Bag from Nest Children–due back in soon! (We’ve got a waiting list for this bag!). We also love Storksak’s bags for moms and dads–they come with insulated bottle pockets. How handy is that? We also adore the Gypsy Tote from Serena and Lily and can’t get enough of the Lemon Curry Leather Hobo from OiOi. Stop by to find your favorite!
