Eight Months

Eight months just seems like such a long time, except for when I think about how old this little man is. It doesn’t seem like it’s been that long at all. When I look at him I can’t help but think, who is this enormous baby baby crawling around my house?! (He’s wearing a size…

Thanksgiving

We had such a fun Thanksgiving visiting family in St. Louis. I am so grateful for our new home, and my happy little family.

Playing With Clay

I got a sudden urge to play with clay the other day so I headed to Michaels and Hobby Lobby (with trusty coupons in hand) to pick up a few supplies. My plan is to design several different fairy wall plaques, make silicone molds, and experiment with resin casting. I really want to start selling…

Little Orange Notebook

Do you know what happens when you take a stressful day, add a couple of fussy kids and a failed external hard drive? A small emotional breakdown. And do you know what you get once the tears are finished flowing? A calmness and reassurance that things will work out the way they are supposed to.…

{restyle} Dress Pants for my Lil’ Mister

I’ve been meaning to share this project for a few weeks now, and I finally got around to getting these pictures together. We went to a family wedding at the beginning of the month and I wanted to sew something cute for the kids to wear, but that was back when all of our stuff…

Seven Months

This little seven month old stud is such a ladies man. Everywhere we go, every woman within 20 feet has to stop and come get some Flynn lovin. Just look at those big handsome eyes! And that fuzzy blonde hair, I could die he’s so cute. Cuteness overload. And he knows it too. He’s all,…
