lately // 002

so this is real life...

Making: lots of breastmilk. did i start there? oh yes, i did. 
Cooking: the occasional meal. lots of family and friends have helped and taken the load of me. 
Drinking: coffee, huzzah! 
Reading: blogs....hard to read with a newborn. my hands are always full. looking forward to reading again. 
Wanting: time with philip and as a family. we have loved having visitors, but we haven't been just the four of us yet and i can't wait. 
Looking: at carter. all the time. i love her. 
Playing: trucks....fire trucks...boy stuff...
Wasting: time on Facebook? couldn't really think of anything for this, but i do hate facebook
Wishing: to freeze time every once in awhile...is she already a month old??
Enjoying: summer
Waiting: for jude's nap to end
Liking: coffee...this is a theme - i just have missed it so much
Wondering: why my phone battery is sucking lately. 
Loving: when jude asks to hold carter 
Hoping: to find a little bit of time to work on business projects
Needing: a nap or the ability to drink coffee in the afternoon and still sleep at night. 
Smelling: the occasional b.o. - natural homemade deodorant only works so well. 
Wearing: a mix of maternity and normal clothes...gosh i miss normal clothes
Noticing: how my belly has shrunk, but is still very present
Knowing: this is a short season in our lives, having two littles and i should soak it up. 
Thinking: wow, i cannot think that well. i am sleepy. 
Feeling: hazy. sleep deprivation makes it hard to think. 
Bookmarking: new craft ideas. 
Opening: lots of gifts for carter - thank you all that have sent things!
Giggling: at the kardsashians. favorite guilty pleasure. 
Feeling: happy. that is one emotion jude expresses - and i love that he says "i feel happy" so i do too...

happy saturday!

lately...

I've been doing some planning for the new year...

And into free printables online...download this one here for free from Tom Kat. 

The babe has been sick. So sad. He has enjoyed sitting upright in his bouncer...being read to...just straight chillin. The night before he got sick he rolled over. He hasn't felt like doing it since so we're hoping he perks back up soon!

I've been into working on the house lately. Something I didn't have time for in December. I can always think of things to do. I hung a few more pictures on the wall. (And made the print on the far right. Easy peasy. Sometimes I think about buying cute prints online and then I remember all these tricks I learned on photoshop in high school and then I make a print myself....I'm not claiming to be brilliant or anything...)

I've been organizing my craft room like crazy. The sad thing is I did the same thing last January and it very quickly got messy again. But maybe this time it will stick.

I have a little display area set up for friends to look...And look at the pretty buttons on the window sill...I have more to sort to add to my collection...

And I have been making stuff for my shop. I've been working on some really cute Valentine items...

Ok, I'm out of here. Peace out girl scouts.
