Long awaited update


I have no excuse for the delayed update on the blog other than I am growing and human and that's hard work so who can blame me for forgetting?

Lilah is 20 months old! She is energetic, entertaining, and very inquisitive. She talks so much it's hard to make her stop (I have no idea where she got that from). She is just an angel and we are amazed by her every day.

We are adding a boy to our family in four weeks (or less if I have my say). We are very excited! Lilah keeps calling him "Baby Doody" no matter how many times we tell her his name (which is top secret). So this little boy may be called Doody by his sister.

We moved in April and it's been a lot of work getting the house put together. We have painted almost every wall, we only have two bathrooms and our bedroom to go. My two stores are keeping me very busy, and Bill and I are enjoying spending lots of time together this summer.

If you need our new address please email me and I can send it to you. I hope you enjoy these pictures from the last couple of months. There are a lot!

Baby's room, all in elephants!

Our collection of elephants (from various places and people) and books
The elephant in front in Wilbur, Lilah chose him for the baby.
This is a mobile that I made. I saw it on etsy for $100 and could not stand the idea of paying that much for something I could make...so I made it.


Lilah's room, all in birds!
This is her nook and I just love it.
Toddler bed...it's been three days and she's done great. Hasn't gotten out of bed at night or during naps one time. We'll just cross our fingers and hope it continues.



I actually appliqued fabric birds to the wall...I know it sounds crazy but it worked and looks super cool.


Relaxing in the grass with Grandma
I think this picture is so beautiful. What a great way to remember Mother's Day.

Lazy morning with daddy
Garrett, Jordan, Alianna and Sean came to visit in June. The girls had so much fun playing.

I love this picture of my beautiful niece.
Columbines in my mom's backyard


Dog kennel, very fun place to play

Lilah loves dressing up the dogs in their finest pearls

At the Butterfly Pavilion
he he he....this just makes me giggle
she wanted to wear her princess dress and then plopped herself right next to her doll....this is her cheesy smile

These are our family/maternity pictures that were taken last week. I absolutely love them and most of the time it was raining!
