You’d think that this is something that I’m totally into… but I really don’t have the patience. We take pictures all year long, and I want to document them somehow without printing out a bunch of pictures or keeping them holed up on my hard drive. My latest tradition has been to print a quick [...]

Maternity clothes always look so cute when you’re not pregnant. But my experience tells me, that when it’s your turn to buy maternity clothes, it seems like there are very little options.
Enter: Shabby Apple Maternity Line {Mama Apple}.
Shabby Apple sent me this beautiful dress for my maternity pictures, and I am in love. When they [...]

I’m not good with words. I always come up with the right thing to say 10 minutes after the opportunity presents itself.
I don’t bake that well. Yes, I have chocolate chip cookies and chocolate crinkle cookies that I can deliver consistently. But anything more complicated than that will take me LOTS of practice to be [...]

I received my bag from the infamous Green Bag Lady. I first heard of her movement from Whitney at Whisker Graphics. The Green Bag Lady makes beautiful reusable totes out of scrap fabric and gives them out for free in exchange for your promise to use it instead of plastic bags. She has created quite [...]

{Installation by Spain by Ingo Maurer, photograph by Jesús Manuel Nieto Bobadilla.}
I originally wanted it HUGE, but the biggest I could get this free image was 11″x14″ without compromising the quality. You are free to download my edited version of the [...]

From this {nubby friend of a sweater}:

To This {comfy neck scarf & sleepy morning face}:

Inspired by anything and everything that Lex makes…
And on a sidenote:
I’ve always thought it was my hair that sucked. I had an epiphany: it’s my flat iron! How have I gone my whole adult life with a $15 flat iron? When [...]

This is officially the last amount of fabric I trucked back from Portland. On clearance, with an extra miracle 40% off coupon, I think this fabric was somewhere around $5/yard. I got *just enough* to make a curtain in the baby room, and to save on width, I used quilting tape to finish the edges. [...]

NVM, don’t answer that… {10 weeks to go!}

I finally decided on a stroller this weekend. That was about as painless as a good body waxing. I could never find any ONE stroller that did all the things that I wanted it to. And to clarify, I am only GUESSING as to what I’m going to [...]
