baby shower invitations

I'm always looking for a reason to have a party and I was hoping to get up to Utah to throw my sister a baby shower, but sadly, that's not going to happen. Wish I could be there, sis! Although, on the bright side, I was able to help with the invitations and you know I love that! I wanted to fill them with confetti and such so I decided to whip out that old mailer template that I made for Gifted a while back. Nothing's better than a little confetti falling from you party invitation, right?!

happy valentine's day

We made Valentine's postcards to send to the cousins. I wanted to make some where she could add her own little touch. Got to love those scribbles!

hello and happy weekend

I'm back! My eyes are a bit glazed over from lack of sleep, but baby and I are still doing well. Little G has been great and loves her baby brother and I'm fully enjoying being a mother of two. Anyway, anyone else excited for Valentine's Day?! It's my favorite. I know if you're single, it can be a bummer, but I love it in a more kiddish way than for the romance. Candies, cards, gift giving and hearts (a small obsession of mine right now), that's why I love you Valentine's Day!

yay, baby!

Happiness, Baby J has arrived! And I'm convinced that he is as sweet as they come. I'll be back blogging soon, but for now, I'll be spending my time with this little guy.

happy weekend

Hey, little elephant! Want to be on baby boy's birth announcement?!
No baby yet, just thinking ahead. Birth announcements are all part of the fun for me! Have a great weekend!

Wishing I could be here, but so glad to be doing this instead
Loving "The Printing Process" series on Oh So Beautiful Paper
Wondering how they transferred that photo onto their wall... so cool!

playhouse

This is so cool! A little imagination and you have a playhouse that doesn't feel like it's taking up the entire room. Fun for the kids, but I'll admit it, I (the mom) mostly love it for how it looks!

loving: fluorescent pink

I'm thinking these would make perfect projects to brighten up a rainy day like we're having today.

happy weekend

I finally wrote down my goals for this year. Hooray! It makes it more official, right? I love this little bookmark, from Baum-kuchen, that came with a favorite gift from my sister-in-law (she got me these!). Now I can be reminded of them often.

cupid kits

from Paper + Twine. I was already in love with their tooth fairy kit and now I'm in love with these as well! Very sweet.
