I’ve got one more antique store find for you! Remember when I wrote about the things I’ve purchased for baby so far? And how I admitted to splurging on a little antique dress when I don’t even know the baby’s gender? Well technically I went to the store to buy a dress specifically for this giveaway, as I had spotted them hanging on a clothesline the last time I was there, but when I saw they were 50% off I figured I’d get one for me and one for one of you. This is definitely the riskiest item I’ve giving away this week, as I’m not sure how many people will be interested. First, you have to either be having a baby girl or know someone who is, and you have to be okay with “old stained clothing”. I prefer the term vintage to old, and I think the fact that it’s a bit weathered to add to it’s charm, but I realize that not all will feel this way. Pair this little dress with a wide brimmed bonnet and ruffly bloomers though and I think you’ll have the cutest baby anyone has ever seen! (Something like this.)

You can’t see it very well here, but it’s a bit stained around the collar and down the front. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

So if you’re having a baby girl, plan to have one in the future, or know someone who is (or you are like my mom and like to stock up on potential baby gift items so you don’t have to run to the store every time you get an invite), go ahead and answer the question below in the comments:

I’ve officially given up on finding a name with meaning, as TH and I can’t seem to agree on anything! At this point we’d be happy to just find with something we like. We have two boys names picked out (yay!) but we can’t find anything we both love for a girl. Leave me three name suggestions in the comments, as long as they aren’t Polish (we’re using Polish family names and TH’s last name for the middle and last, no need to torture the child with three difficult names to spell out the rest of their life), wouldn’t be considered “grandma” names (TH rejects all of those), and aren’t crazy popular right now (so Emma, Isabella, Emily, Madison, Ava, Olivia, Sophia, Abigail, Elizabeth, Chloe, etc are out). Maybe you’ll be the one we can credit for naming our child! :)

Comments close at 11:59 pm on 2/24/2010, and the winner will be announced on Saturday. Entries that don’t fully answer the question will be deleted because I like when people follow directions.

P.S.-Feel free to leave name suggestions even if you don’t want to enter, just let me know that you aren’t interested in winning so I can keep that in mind when I do the drawing.
