Stylish Gadget Sleeves

Aren't these sleeves cool? They have a modern and rugged look to them and are functional to boot. My iPad and iPhone are asking for one.

We spent the week over the New Year holiday down in Puerto Vallarta with my family. We rented a house which overlooked the coast and pretty much ate guacamole the entire time. Willa had her first swimming experience which went pretty well. She actually got into the not-so-very hot tub instead of the pool because the water was to0 chilly. She loved it which made us all smile.

Willa & I doing a little poolside relaxing.

We had the most breathtaking view and beautiful sunsets every evening.

aaaah, the warm weather.

Poppies on a string

I love this idea... a string garden and I just love poppies. What a perfect reminder that spring is only a few months away.

Project Nursery: complete!

Yes, Willa is almost four months and I'm just now getting around to posting some photos of her nursery. I do have a good excuse though.... her early arrival. We didn't have the bedding, a rocker or a changing table when we brought her home from the hospital! So, it's been a work in progress. I absolutely love spending time in her sweet nursery now. Everything about it makes me want to smile. Of course, she's the best part.

The illustration that sits on the bookshelf was done by my talented cousin, Katherine. The words "cute as can be baby of mine" are lyrics from the Disney movie Dumbo.

Jonathan and I worked on the photo project above the dresser for hours and hours. Hanging 12 frames together wasn't as simple as I had envisioned. We selected various photos from our travels, wedding and shots of ourselves when we were little.
