The delightful folks at Etsy had their second annual baby shower last month, and I was one of the Moms that recieved gifts from amazing sellers! Here are the super groovy things that I’ve received in the mail:

Deer print from JenniferDennisPotter. So Sweet!

This adorable “bean” hat from Ilashdesigns.

and…these amazing tees from holdentees. [...]

Happy 37 weeks to baby Jack! He is now full term and while that means a little celebratory sigh of relief, it also means that another serious life change is going to happen here anytime in the next months or so. I have a list that I’ve entitled, “things to do pre-Jack” and [...]

More modern-ness to love!
2modern has some lovely room ideas- these are my two favorites:

In the Woods from 2modern.

Green is Keen from 2modern.

happy things!

Pregnancy does not make me crave strange foods. As a vegetarian I wondered how I would handle a fried chicken craving (and how my body would handle it having been on a vegetarian diet for 8 years now!), but the opposite has been true. I haven’t wanted to eat some of my favorite [...]

If you are fans of Joshua and Julie Lee then you were expecting this little announcement. They welcomed little Samuel into their family this last weekend! From what I remember, he looks much like the newborn Joshua… hmmm…
More baby shout outs: The foxiest lady ever, Jandre Sherwood recently had her second child, little [...]
