Two months already, huh? I might as well start planning his 18th birthday… He had his 2 month appointment today and he weighs 13lbs 11oz. He’s a big guy! But he still seems so small to me. (Probably because Juniper is so much bigger than him.) I’m very much enjoying the tiny baby stage. I…
Here is my mini cake for May. I decided to do a Mother’s Day cake for when my mother-in-law came to visit. Overall, I like the cake, but I don’t LOVE the cake. It turned out alright. A little boring. This cake was my inspiration, and I should have stuck with the green. The blue…
The past week has gone by in a blur! We had a lot of fun with family in town last weekend and it’s taken me 4 days to get back into a normal routine! I DID have the house cleaned all up on Tuesday, but I decided to do some sewing and well… Let’s just…
I only wanted two things for Mother’s Day this year. 1) A cute photo with both kids in the same picture. Amazingly we got Juniper to sit still long enough to take one! (Yet again wearing their matching outfits. I promise my kids own other clothes!) 2) A love letter from Shaun. Which of course,…
One of my Birthday Goals this year was to learn how to sew hats, and now I can cross that one off! And it only took one failed attempt! I even remembered to draft a pattern as I went so I can make more. (I’m not usually that organized when I’m being creative.) A little…
1. Happy Teacher Appreciation Day! I love being married to a math teacher. Somehow that makes me feel smarter. So I made him this lovely surprise today, to thank him for my false sense of intelligence ? 2. A sneak peak at a project I’m working on. Yes, this is a terrible picture. But it’s…
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…
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…
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 ?…
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…
