Resolutions

Well here we are with a new year and I look back and feel sad. I so neglected this blog its not even fair. I have decided that this year is my year... and I am putting forth many new resolutions. I plan to put myself first for a very long time. I have started to work on my eating habits and exercise again. My other focus is to get back to blogging. I do feel intimidated at times because there are so many great bloggers out there but... this blog is for me and for Liv, so my goal it to write if not every other day then once a week. So much happens in our little world and I dont want to forget any of it.

Grosgrain

Nantucket Weekend GIVEAWAY!!!!

Found this wonderful site via Design mom and couldn't help myself. Kathleen designs and sews outfits and then gives them away! Her work is lovely! Check it out!

Summer

Wow, what a busy summer. The weather has been kind. Storming at night and lovely during the day. We took in the Capital Ex and the sites and sounds that go with it. We experienced 100's of butterflies flying around us in the butterfly pavilion. But the events don't end there. We have birthday parties and more city events coming our way. Its been wonderful taking Liv out on the town. So much to see and do.

For the love of design

I found this wonderful site via Design Mom and felt more than compelled to write about it. Harmonie interieure sells posters and wall stickers. The typography is tight and visuals sweet. Love the organic feel to their work. The poster above is a limited edition and I love the color, would look wonderful in my office.

Oh my...

Oh my, it has been almost a month since I last posted. Tisk tisk... I can't believe it, I neglected my blog for too long. I hope never to do it again. Much has happened in our little lives in the last month.

We had a low key Fathers Day....actually we celebrated a day late as the man had to work on the actual day. But it was nice to spend some quality family time. Hun, if you read this...your an awesome father to Liv and a wonderful hubby.

We also had a very sick cat, Mia. She was diagnosed with diabetes and had the most difficult decision to put her down. She was of good age, a true friend to Liv and she will be sorely missed in our house hold. You never truly know how ingrained a pet is or really anyone for that matter is until they are gone.

Liv, I and grandma also took a road trip this past weekend to Calgary to try to get some R&R after the loss of Mia. It was a good little getaway but glad we are home again with the hubby.

Spoonflower

Wow! I found this great little place via one of my daily haunts decor8. I am so excited! Spoonflower will print your fabric for you! Right now they will only do limited runs but if your into creating one ups etc its great. The prices are reasonable and they ship within a week!

I cant wait, I signed myself up. Now all I have to do is design the pattern. Thats the hard part!

You can also keep an eye on there blog. They give you a window to what they are working on.

Ohh Baby! Day 10

You thought I forgot about ten didn't you? Nope.


I think she deserves a post of her own. I think it is so important to get a maternity and baby photographer. Time flies and you honestly forget to get really special pictures of you and your little one. Kristi Larson of Blueframe Photographics is amazing. She is super relaxed and patient - she knows kids can be alot of work. I have known her for a long time and was so happy to have her take pictures during my pregnancy and of Liv when she was born (and until now)! Check out her site.

If you poke around on her blog and site you may just see a few pics of Liv.
