At the advice of Sloane’s pediatrician and my own desire to fulfill my inner crunchy granola hippie-mom, I’ve been making my own baby food. I received a Baby Bullet baby food maker from my Aunt Dale at my baby shower, and like almost everything else I received that day, I had no idea what it…
Apple & Ivy
Everyone keeps saying Sloane is cute enough to be a model, and last week she had an opportunity to make her debut! My friend Rebecca designs an awesome line of children’s clothing and accessories (and some grown-up stuff as well), and she made Sloane two cute cute dresses for autumn! She also made little capelets…
Independence Day
We had a great 4th of July, and it looks like almost everyone else did too! It didn’t even rain! Of course, Sloane had multiple wardrobe changes – not due to a blowout, for once! (sorry for the lame picture quality) We hung around the house all day before going to the 4th of July…
Family Photo: Then and Now.
Happy 4th of July! Last year: This year:
dinner.
February 6, 2012: Dinner. Jumbo. The restaurant this came from and the size of my plate. Jebber was overjoyed when I woke him up from his nap today and informed him that I was craving Chinese! Seriously, his eyes lit up. Jumbo is the best Chinese around and it’s worth the 30 minute drive to…
10am.
February 5, 2012: 10am Katie getting ready for her big day! She’s in the chair, and Elysha is making her beautiful, while Jenny documents the whole thing from behind the curtain. Beautiful wedding, beautiful day, so happy to have been a part of this special day. Speech went well. People laughed at the parts where…
a stranger.
February 4, 2012: A Stranger Another photo of dogs, you say? Ha! I had plenty of opportunities to snap photos of strangers for today’s February photo challenge, but I forgot! I feel like these feet belong to a stranger though, despite the fact that they are currently attached to my legs. I didn’t think my…
hands.
February 3, 2012: Hands A young William Jefferson Clinton shaking hands with John F. Kennedy! How cool is that, seriously? JFK didn’t know he was shaking the hand of a future president, and I’m sure Bill Clinton had no idea either! Um, can we get Slick Willie back? I could personally use some prosperous Clinton-era…
words.
February 2, 2012: Words This one was easy…the words I’m focusing on lately are the ones I’m going to speak at my oldest friend Katie’s wedding on Sunday. I’m giving a speech as her matron of honor! I’ve never given an important toast like this before, and I’m mustering up everything I can remember from…
Pinterest Photo Challenge
I know ya’ll are as obsessed with Pinterest as I am. I found this the other day when I was couch-surfing for 8 hours on my day off. 🙂 I love little “challenges” and this one looks like fun, especially since February is going to be such an incredibly busy month for me! Two weddings…
