Summer, you snuck up on us!

June 20, 2011

Summer has snuck up on us!
Suddenly kids are walking around during the day?!?
In my mind I’m like they should be in school! ;)
The $5 baby pool from Target is a hit right now..
and so are summer dresses.. like the $17 H&M one I’m wearing below..
Shoes are from Target. I have the same pair in black.
I can RUN in these shoes. and I’m taller in them. which is nice.)
loving family time. and snuggles on the couch. and play time outside.




We walk outside..and this is what we see. Thankfully the mama bird has left..her babies have grow and flew away. Grilling outside is a bit stressfull when you have a protective mama bird charging at you. Ben would grill and I would face the nest with a tennis racket just in case it attacked him. that’s what you call intense grilling. after 2 times of that we just gave up until they moved out. ;) And the bunnies..they have no fear. they hop around us while we play. it’s crazy. sophia calls them the easter bunny.


But we don’t have too much time to relax..because we are moving out of our rental in 1 MONTH. and into a new place.
So we are busy de-cluttering and packing! 
**Girls dresses are from Target**


here is our attempt at a family photo.



ps. I’m cutting back on custom orders in my shop for the summer to focus on family..moving/reno..I’m still open and send me over any ideas you have but it all depends on the amount of time/your deadline
AND I’m focusing on a new business venture……… 
SOOO EXCITING. I can’t wait to give you all the details soon. 
You are gonna FLIP. (in an oh my gosh that is awesome kinda way. ;)

    I literally laughed out loud at the family photo….Sienna’s tongue sticking out is too cute. And while reading this, my 4 year old saw Sohpia’s bathing suit and agreed that it was “soooooo cute!”

    I can’t wait to see the pictures! :) It’s fun, exciting and stressful moving.
