Kaia's Mobile

So, my sweet sister tells me that mobiles really aren't necessary as most babies rarely sleep in their crib until they are older, and in that case it may become a hazard if they can reach it.  However, I decided to cast aside her astute logic and buy this little piece of baby art.  If nothing else...I'm going to hang it above MY bed!  Mommies need mobiles too :) 

Not that I'm organized enough to actually have Kaia's room set up or decorated...much less a "theme" picked out (do people really do that?  who has that kind of time on their hands?  or am I just missing the cutesy baby-mommy gene?!)...I have decided that my little lady should be surrounded by a few owls.  Unlike her mommy's spirit animal of a wolverine (for obvious grouchy, stubborn, pain-loving reasons:)), and her daddy's spirit animal of a mountain goat...I think our little lady is going to be a whole heck of a lot smarter than all of us.  Owls have always brought about a feeling of wisdom, safety and protection for me...and she is certainly much wiser than Will or I already by deciding to be conceived when neither of us had her on our agenda :) 

Welcome, baby Kaia.  Your owls will be here to greet you.
