Guess Who Loves You?

I had a free photobook coupon from Shutterfly (my favorite photo website) and decided to create a book for our little one’s library. Have you heard that baby’s see much better in black and white when they are young? Hence, the monochromatic design. I’m SO, SO excited to read this book sometime next month! Baby […]

Interview with Dr. A

Last week I scheduled 3 pediatrician appointments … Dr. A, Dr. B and Dr. C. My Dad always taught me to comparison shop in lots of three, so that is exactly what I planned to do. Planned being the key word. Pediatrician selection seems like a big deal to me. I had amazing pediatricians growing […]

Packing for an Adventure

The other day Dominic asked me when we were going to start packing our birth bag. I responded with, “Um, well, I’m 34 weeks so maybe sometime in September.”He didn’t think that was a good idea. Does he have a fatherly sixth sense that we should be ready earlier? Who knows … but the packing […]

Welcome to the Forest

I feel like I’m finally making some progress on the projects I have been talking about for months! Remember the Nursery Art I had planned? Well, it finally happened today. It isn’t mounted on the wall yet, but here is a step by step sneak peak of one of the three animals! Silhouette Artwork – […]

Baby Shower Scattergories

Leah planned the most fun game for my baby shower last week, Name That Baby. It was based on Scattergories and meant to help us dream up some new baby name ideas. Each guest was given a copy of the above game card. And yes, in true Leah fashion they were homemade and simply adorable. […]

Frog Prince and Slumber Owl

Not only did Leah create amazing fabric art as my shower gift, she also whipped up two snuggly creations for baby to love on. Meet Frog Prince and Slumber Owl … But my favorite part is the sweet little tail …

Garage Drama

After the Home Sweet Home post on Saturday I am sure you were wondering what wasn’t complete in our new place. You guessed it … this mama has major GARAGE DRAMA! Any tips for conquering the task of garage organization?

Inspired

My dear friend, Leah, follows my blog and saw my post on Petit Collage. Rather than smile at its’ sweetness she got to work. That’s right! Due to the creative bug that lives inside her Leah opted to make her own version of the prints I adored. Can you say “blessed”? I am still thrilled […]

Home Sweet Home

We moved into our new house 6 weeks ago. After that we had a few weeks of solid progress. Lots of organization, cleaning and setting up house. Then something called summer happened and we decided to take a break from it all. The upstairs has taken the brunt of our relaxation, but last night we […]

Freckled Lemonade and a Heart-to-Heart

We splurged after church yesterday and went out to lunch at Red Robin. Nothing like a chicken burger, french fries and a freckled lemonade to make this pregnant gal smile from ear to ear. Plus, nothing quenches the thirst monster like lemonade. Essence of summer, for sure.I saw this out to Red Robin as the […]
