Livia at Two Months

At two months old Livia Eveline can:

snuggle at night with her big brothers,

smile and coo,

laugh at her daddy, especially when he tickles her hands with his whiskers,

wear matching clothes and hats with her momma,

and completely melt your heart with her big, baby blue eyes.

We sure do love our little girl!

We are over the moon in love with our sweet little Livvy and are thankful to God for her!

Coming soon?  Her nursery reveal!

An Update of Sorts

Hello, hello!

It has been awhile since I've written here and I've missed it!  It seems that things have finally settled down around our home, only to pick up again once our baby girl arrives.  She could come any day now and we are all anxious and excited to meet her.  Her room is almost finished and I am looking forward to sharing it with you.

How was your summer?  Ours was busy in the best possible way!  We crammed in as many family adventures as we could all while working on a pretty big project.  You see, I was asked back in February to write a book about chalkboard crafts and projects.  I'll share the final details of the book as soon as I can, although if you are feeling particularly snoopy, you can look it up here.  ;)  There are a few final details to work out, including the actual book cover, before it comes out in December. I'm pretty happy with the book so far and am even happier to be almost done with it!

I'll be back again soon to share the baby room with you, hopefully before she arrives!  Until then, I'll leave you with the pictures of one of our last summer adventures, because no post should ever be without pictures. 

Just a side note, if you are ever in Milwaukee, be sure to visit Purple Door Ice Cream.  It is divine.

Lately... the iPhone Christmas Edition

We've been having a grand time around here lately until we got the flu, preparing our hearts and home for Christmas.  Here are a few snippets of life lately, according to my iPhone.

sewing gifts for my niece and her baby doll, "Babes", which by the way, is the best baby doll name ever.

We hope you are making Christmas memories with the ones you love!

And for pete's sake, whatever you do, do not get the flu!
