Hangin with my crew, yo. And some fun shirt embellishments.

This is what we did on a cold, icy day this week when we were sick of being cooped up in the house. We put on hats and gloves and sat in front of the camera and said “cheese!”. Getting a two-year-old little boy to sit still while trying to take his picture can get […]

Good Morning!

Happy Monday morning to you! Do I sound too cheery? Sorry about that. It’s just that I’ve had a sick husband this past week (2nd time he had the flu in the past 3 weeks – double yuk), and I’m so happy that everyone is finally healthy. Although, as I’ve learned in the past few […]

What I Wore Wednesday – It’s Baaaack!

I decided to take the plunge again and link up to the Pleated Poppy’s “What I Wore” party this week. Sorry if it seems dumb to take pictures of myself and post them for all to see, but it does help me to put a little more effort into what I’ve been wearing. And, hey, […]

Cuz I like to make lists

Cringe-worthyness…. *lukewarm showers. *speedos, on anyone, no matter what size they are. *walking into forever 21 and feeling like all the teeny-boppers are staring at me going “she is WAY to old to be in here”. *sharing one bathroom with a husband and three little kids. it means that I never get to shower in […]

A fun little sewing project

I was in the mood to get my sewing machine out this week and I have a whole list of sewing projects I wanted to try. I decided to start by making some burp cloths for the babe in some fun colors. I just love shopping for fabric. My mind starts going in all kinds […]

Style

These days I don’t get much of a chance to dress in anything other than my “stay at home” clothes, but it doesn’t stop me from dreaming! Here are some styles that I’m loving right now… Fluffy flower attached to the belt…love… Bunches of flowers on a necklace paired with a tweed jacket. Librarian-chic is […]

Monday Monday

You’ll have to pardon my lack of blog postings recently. The past week has been, shall we say, challenging. For me, anyway. Poor hubs had the flu all week, Jack was feverish for a couple of days, baby V was fussy…so this mama was just plain worn out. Completely and utterly. I really hope I […]

Barn Door Inspirations

Some of you had commented about the barn door that I had in a post last week – isn’t it the coolest?? I just love it. Obviously. The hubs saw it when he drove past a yard sale last summer, and he came home and told me about it. What a guy!! Normally, he isn’t […]

Just a Note

Because I had so much interest, I’ve added a few more of these “O How He Loves Us” canvases to my Etsy shop. Click here to order. Get ’em while they last!

Snow Day

Today I will enjoy the beautiful fresh snow. I will be patient with the children when they misbehave. I will spend quality time with the kids. I will take it easy so I’m not completely worn out when hubs comes home from work. I will not worry about having a perfectly clean & organized house. […]

Home again, home again, jiggity jig

We brought Violet home from the hospital last night and it felt GREAT to have our family back again!! She is doing really well – just has a little cough occasionally. And my life has quickly returned to the chaotic normal that it is. This morning I’m making granola in the kitchen, Violet starts to […]

Day Ten

It’s Saturday night and I’m sitting at the Ronald McDonald House by myself since Hubs went home to be with the kids, and I’m wondering where in the world the last ten days went. It all seems like a dream. Not a good dream but not a nightmare either. When I start to feel sorry […]
