Ruffled Tote Bag
I am such a girl. I’m a skirt wearin’, French-inspired, headband lovin’, pink adoring, party planning, ruffle obsessing, GIRL! And I believe my little girl is following in my footsteps. Yesterday at Ikea (her first time since she was a toddler), she shrieked at the sight of the decorated rooms. She kept saying, “I could […]
The Nursery Reveal!
Aaahh, the room I have been waiting to show you for over a year! Yes, it really did take that long to finish (actually, it’s not even quite done yet). And, no, it was not supposed to take that long. Three months at the most. But you know how it is when you do all […]
Birthdays & Posies
So my little girl turned 4 yesterday and to say that she is proud is a complete understatement. She keeps saying, “Now I’m taller! And I’m going to school soon!” She is positively itching to go to school like her bigger cousin Anna. In awe of the cake. And boy was it simple to make! […]
Cape May
We are lucky enough to have friends who are pilots (well, the hubby is anyway) and so we get the privilege of flying to different parts of the Northeast with them on quick trips. We’ve gone to Niagara Falls, Boston, Atlantic City, and this weekend we headed to Cape May, NJ for the day – […]
Life
Today was one of those days. One of those pivotal days in my life. This morning I went to the doctor for a routine 14-week prenatal visit. I had confided in my sister-in-law Andrea last night that I was feeling nervous about going. For the past week or so, I just haven’t felt as “pregnant” […]
Perfectionists need not apply
Can I just say that for the past few weeks I have been sitting out on my porch and staring at my roses – willing them to start blooming! And they have started!! So FUN! Oh, the things that get me excited! I wanted to do a bunch of container plants on the porch but […]
Let’s Talk Laundry
For the love of all things domestic and farm-wifey-like! Here comes a post about making your own laundry detergent! I know, run!! But if you’re like me (lover of all things thrifty and homemade, but glamorous at the same time), you’ll love this too! Ok, so it’s not at all glamorous, but whatever! My mom […]
4 Girls & the City
My bliggity-bloggity friends & I went to the city last night for dinner and ice cream, and, man, the company was much-needed! Excuse the horrid picture, but this is me, Kara, Janelle, and Beth… We had the best conversations – hashed over the “happy’s” and the “sads” and everything in between. Real, honest, open, whatever! […]
i’m dreaming of a vintage bed…
it’s old, perfectly chippy, iron perfectly worn, but not too much perfect for a little girl or a little boy who loves to snuggle and read in bed i scooped up this little treasure this weekend and just about died. i mean, how perfect can you get, really… unfortunately, there is no room in my […]
Sweet Chair
I’ve been a bad blogger lately, but I think I have good reason, right? It’s amazing how one tiny little fig-sized unborn person can just wreak havoc on a person’s body. I’m sure most of you know exactly what I’m talking about. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining (ok, I’m totally complaining), but I’m […]
RockyBella Feature
Karli from RockyBella featured some of my re-do’s on her blog today! How flattered am I?!! She has some great crafty ideas (totally my kind of girl!), so go check her out! ~ ~ ~ The hubs forbid me to do any painting today (I’ve been wearing myself thin lately with all the projects I […]
Another Little Project
I have a confession to make. I’ve been busy. And distracted. And I haven’t been getting my projects done like I normally do. I’ve been doing a lot of lying on the couch. And eating. And then feeling sick. I’ve been preoccupied with a particular little project. Only about 1-1/2 inches long but it’s changing […]
