My tiniest baby turned 1!

Obviously, I did a lot of pink along with a touch of a flamingo theme.  Pink solo cups for our keg of beer in a pink bucket!  Pink flamingo’s in the yard as well as a giant flamingo balloon attached to Emory’s highchair.  My aunt brought over pink dahlia’s from her garden for a few arrangements and we coated as much as we could in pink party table cloths from Target and Party City.  I made a round tiny white cake, so the cake mess would be white instead of brown chocolate, and coated it in pink sprinkles.

I also cut the letters of her name out of card board, painted them in glue and covered them in white glitter as you can see below.  So easy and fun!

Emory’s head band was purchased from a cute Etsy shop called “BagsnBerries.”

New Baby

22 Oct

I haven’t posted since June!  Unbelievable!  My life is crazy, unpredictable and overwhelming!  A two and a half year old and a newborn is wild!  My life is complete insanity…. flying by the seat of my pants, moment to moment living!  I never know what one of my kids is gonna do or need.  My hair is falling out in gobs, I can’t sleep because I worry about everything, I am behind on EVERYTHING, my daughter sh*ts through all of her outfits, my son has a constant cold from daycare, I work full time yet am leaving early constantly because of my kids, I drink vodka every night once baby is asleep, I just want to watch the bachelor…

 

Here is my new angel that is worth the struggle-

E newborn

 

Love and peace!

Baby Girls Accessory Wall

29 Jun

I covered an old canvas that I had with some super cute fabric. I just simply used a hot glue gun to get the fabric to stick, so it was really easy and quick!

Then, one of my amaz girlfriends put together the white picture frames with ribbons for holding accessories as a gift at my baby shower!

And my final touch was two cute wall hooks from Land of Nod for her coats, hats, scarves, etc. For now, the hook will hold the Boppy pillow.

Aren’t these skeletons amazing?!  I wish that I could take credit for them, however, my mom is the creator!  She made these out of old milk jugs!  My little skeleton family!  My husband, son and I!  So cute!  Notice all of the detail…. painted nails, earrings, a tie, a Halloween sack, etc.  She did an amazing job and we love them!  Thanks Mom!  We love you!

Cookie Sheet Magnet Board

Fridge

 

Cookie Sheet magnet board

 

Like many of you, our fridge is one of those that is not magnetic on the front and the sides are covered by built in cabinets.  Its a nice fridge, though, I am very sad that we can’t plaster a million kid art pieces, magnets, etc. on it.  So my mom and I created a magnet board for my son out of a cookie sheet and contact paper.  We chose the contact paper that matches the wood on the side of our cabinet, stuck it to the cookie sheet and boom!  We stuck it on the cabinet using adhesive squares so that we can move it as he grows.  It works like a charm and my son loves it!  Happy crafting!

Li’L Klippers (Kids Salon)

9 Jul

1st haircut

 

Against my husband’s will, I scheduled our baby boy’s first haircut and it worked out perfect!  We chose to go to a little shop in Wallingford WA that only does kids haircuts called Li’l Klippers.  Li’l Klippers is a precious place with really cool chairs for the kids to sit in like a boat, car, airplane, etc.  Our son sat in the car as you can see above and did an amazing job sitting still for the hairstylist, Jennie.  Jennie did an fabulous job being very calm and comforting to our son and I would defiantly recommend Jennie and this salon! As you can see below, they provided us with a cute little ‘first haircut’ card and some of his little tiny curls that will melt my heart for life.  I will be going back to Li’l Klippers!
