could someone get me an umbrella hat?

The Romneys are in town (you'll get a full report of their visit, don't worry).
It's raining. A lot.
The kids are protected:
My feet are fine (I'm in love with my rain boots):

But I'm wondering if you know any hip celebrities that can start a trend featuring these:
So I don't look like this every time it rains:
I can't hold an umbrella while I'm pushing the stroller.

I'm on it!!!! I'll start stalking celebrities here in L.A. and asking for their support on the Umbrella Hat initiative. :-)

(And seriously, why haven't any genius inventor types come up with something that stroller-pushing moms can use to stay dry in the rain??)

You are pretty hip, Abbie, I think you could pull off starting the trend yourself!

And three cheers to Maclaren and their awesome rain covers. We just tested ours out last week and I loved it (even if I came home soaked and raccoon-eyed, as well). :)

Eh, I think you look hot like that! :)

I have full confidence Jean will deliver in the celebrity department, she always does. :)

In the meantime, it looks like you could use some comfy pjs, hot apple cider, a soft pillow, and a really good book.

I think they need to get an umbrella that can attach to your stroller and cover you. It is hard--I've tried. :)

P.S. LOVE the rain boots. Way cute.

You in an umbrella hat would have forrest falling even more crazy in love with you...You wouls be lookn SO FINE!

If I were there, I would follow you around and hold an umbrella over your head.

You KNOW I would.

Awww, poor Abbie got wet! That makes me sad!

But your pictures in the rain with the leaves are pretty.

Also, I ended up ordering the boots. In RED! I originally thought I'd be all "New York" and go with black. But now I am gonna be one sassy, stand-out woman with my red rain boots. I don't know if I can pull it off. Maybe we can team up, me with my bright red boots, you with your umbrella hat, and take the world by a storm. We'd rock it.

ya, if you figure that one out, please fill the rest of us in. i usually just throw the hat on, and then the hood over the hat. maybe a hat with a brim? like a fashionable fedora?? you're blessed for your unselfishness. :)
