DIY – Framed Shirt Artwork

I was doing some thrift shopping the other day and I found this adorable shirt in the children’s section. It fit me, but really isn’t my style. I just had to buy it though, because it’s so true: I DO love skinny boys with glasses! (Well, one skinny man in particular ?) I decided I…

Etsy Love

I’ve mentioned recently that someday I’d like to have a collection of family portraits done by various artists, of all sorts of mediums and styles. (I’ll definitely be hitting up some of my siblings for artwork!) I’ve found a lot of fantastic artists on Etsy, and someday when I have a little more money saved…

One Month Old

Our little Flynn turned one month old on Easter Sunday. Already! He’s a fantastic little guy. I love the tiny baby stage, so I’ve been soaking up as much sweet cuddles as I can before he’s a crazy toddler. I could just sit and stare at him all day! I love him so much ?…

Easter Outifits

I started sewing this dress for Juniper the week before Flynn was born. All I had to do was hem it, but it sat unfinished in my closet for a month. When we were invited to a friend’s house this Sunday for an Easter egg hunt, I decided to finally finish it. It’s made from…

Central Florida Earth Day

Central Florida Earth Day at Lake Eola Park in downtown Orlando is kind of a family tradition. It’s one of those things I look forward to doing each year. I guess I’m just a hippie like that. The first year we went was sort of a mistake, we had gone to see the Jim Henson…

A Drawing to Keep

I’ve decided that when we have a house, instead of hanging photographs in our living room, I’m going to start a collection of family portraits done by various artists. How much fun will that be? It will be our own little art gallery ? It is so hard to photograph pencil… I’m not 100% satisfied…

Baby Shower Fun

Our good friends Iris and Steve are expecting a little baby girl, pretty much any day now. (We were preggo-buddies!) Her sister Veronica threw her an awesome baby shower last weekend, and I got to have fun helping her pull it all together. We made a spiffy diaper cake and diaper bassinet, cute little wash…

Crib Recovery

It seemed simple enough. Just adding a little bit of fabric, right? Well, as my husband will agree, this project nearly destroyed me. Almost every night I would throw this little crib up against a wall and declare that I was giving up. And every day when Shaun came home from work, there was I…

Three Weeks

It has been three weeks since our little Flynn made his amazing entrance into the world. I’ll share the whole story another day. Tonight I just wanted to break my blogging silence with some of my favorite photos from the last few weeks. I love this fella. ?
