When Brandon and I were choosing a name for Eleanor, we were a bit overwhelmed. There are so many names out there! We only knew one thing: we weren’t going to reveal the name until she was born (this turned out to not be a problem since we didn’t settle on her name until she was in our arms). Other...

First Trimester: yay or nay?
(me, at 14 weeks, so happy to be out of the first trimester) Was your first trimester a yay or a nay? For me it was a total nay. One of my good friends just exited her first trimester (it’s her first) with ease. Does it make me a bad person to think that just maybe this means the teen...
CMYK nursery
I have been thinking CMYK since this post. And I’m currently piecing together a craft desk for myself out of an old ornate bed frame which I plan on painting a shade of cyan. So today we go for the gusto with a CMYK inspired nursery. Mike was second guessing my buggy bank, saying it would terrify the baby who...
The real reason
The real reason (or major obstacle) in adding another baby/kid to our family is how to fit everyone and all our crap into our car. Ok so this sounds like a stupid reason. I know, I know. Of course the finances are something we think about too, but I think that will work itself out. We don’t have a small...
in 9 months
In 9 months it will be practically Christmas! So watch out all you would be baby makers . . . I learned this one the hard way. Now we have Jackson on Christmas Eve, Jesus on Christmas (he’s kind of a big deal) and my husband Mike on New Year’s Eve. I was born on Mother’s Day so we are...
Stuff We Say
I saw this yesterday on Design Mom and couldn’t resist posting. These are hysterical! Nathan Ripperger is dad takes things he has said to his kids and turns them into posters. I can only imagine how close to home these will probably hit in the future…especially the cat one… Who else hopes this dad will start selling these?
{DIY Card} Happy Spring!
Can you believe it is spring already! Wow, how time flies by these days. Here’s a quick and easy DIY card you can make this spring. Use whatever materials you have on hand. I tend to save paper shopping bags for reuse. I had a Paper Source bag which I used for this project. You could use extra wrapping paper,...

Every girl needs a DVF
My absolute favorite dress designer is Diane Von Furstenburg. I have a few of her dresses (they’re not cheap so I don’t have as many as I’d like) and they are the only dresses that I feel as comfortable with myself as I do in jeans and a t-shirt. Seriously, the woman knows how to make a dress for women....
play date + st. patty
(image from nashvillemoms) I love this play date + st. patty’s day party from Nashville Moms. What a great idea! And it looks like they all had fun. Have everyone bring a green themed dish, I love this one: (image from nashvillemoms) Cut out some shamrocks out of construction paper, or old book pages, or even old shopping bags and make some...
