Family of Four

We had a family photo sessions with Tina of Impressions Photography. We loved the portraits she did when Pinkie was 2years old. Since the Wisconsin Sheridans have moved West we decided it was time for an all family, all kids photo. Lots of cute pictures of Little J. She takes quick photos of precious moments, plus all the classics like hands and toes.

One of my homepages is Prudent Baby. So you can imagine how thrilled I am that the picture tutorial I used from them is on their Project Round Up! Check it out at Prudent Baby.

Baby J's room was sadly lacking. This time around for the nursery I was a stickler for only things I loved. None of the cartoony sillyness that plagued me with Pinkie. I pondered paint for weeks. And loved it. I pondered bedding for days. Daddy ended up winning that pick but I warmed up to it. I now have 3 pieces of artwork that I love. I'm not done with his room- there are some shelves that need some love soon.

My friend, Anna, sent Baby J this Monogram photo set. The 'J' is her husband's cowboy boot. The 'S' is the S from the SMU sign. That's where Anna and I met and spent some good times. We've been friends for like 6+ years now with her in Dallas/Austin/Center Texas and me in Oregon. And the 'D' is from their honeymoon hotel door. They happened to honeymoon in Kauai, HI where Daddy and I got married. Can you see all the sentiment? I adore it. I am obsessed with the website Prudent Baby. I've done many of their tutorials and they are simple and well illustrated. I found this tutorial a few weeks ago and pondered whether I could do it. I used to be really into Watercolor painting so I had the supplies and thought why not? I don't think mine are near as good as PB's, but I think they are pretty cute for his nursery. Pardon the poor pictures. How does one take pictures of glass without glare???

Our house is feeling pretty fresh lately. We got new carpet- it's khaki-ish and long n shaggy (called frise). New curtains in Pinkie's room and downstairs and I just mop my heart out with my Shark steam cleaner.

We have...

1. a 3month old. The time is flying by and it makes me sad.
2. a super happy baby. Blessings from above, I claim no credit for his amazing disposition.

3. garbages that are over-flowing and clogged drains.

4. no garbage bags...

5. 3 projects half done (baby booties, watercolor painting for nursery,

ladybug and butterfly stuffed toys)

6. new carpet!

7. an empty box of nursing pads (big whoops).

8. lots of plans- Pump It Up, Grandma babysitting,

Tillamook Cheese Factory, gymnastics and Disneyland.

9. a sad mommy going back to work Aug. 30.
