What's new in my life?

  • We bought a house! We close on the 24th of this month and I couldn't be more excited! We'll be sad to leave my parents, since they've been so good to us and I'm sure they're going to miss the babies, but we're just a 10 minute drive from them. The house is absolutely perfect for us and I love everything about it. Only 1 1/2 weeks....



  • Jackson is such a sweet, curious, mischevious, and playful little two year old! I spend my days chasing after him, cleaning his messes, and making sure he's not getting into nail polish when he's too quiet. This "terrible two" stage is no joke! We're trying to potty train... off and on. He uses the potty about once or twice a day and I usually have to ask him if he has to go. But hey, it's a start. Hopefully once we get settled in the new house, we'll go hard core and be done with the diapers. Well, for Jackson at least.


  • Miss Mia is getting bigger and cuter by the minute. She's now eating rice oatmeal, apples, bananas, pears, sweet potatos, and her favorite is peas. She doesn't have any teeth yet, but I'm sure they're on their way. Just today she started pushing up on all fours and rocking back and forth. Then she just plops down on that cute, round little tummy of hers. Oh, and I swear she calls me mama! Sometimes in the mornings, she'll pick up her little head and look around with those big brown eyes and yell "mamamaaaaa". Makes me melt.



Well, that pretty much sums it up. I'll post more pictures of the new house once we get in there.

shop update


I finally got around to updating the shop. I've been making things here and there, but I've just been lazy to post them. (Isn't it funny how I can spend hours blogging and on facebook, but I don't have time to post things) There are a couple of new bags, a couple of burp cloths, and bibs in the shop! I'm pretty excited about the bibs. Since Mia is eating oatmeal and baby food now, I am in love with these bibs. They really are the perfect size and they're not too stiff or chunky. I have a few more things I need to photograph and post... maybe tomorrow.
