Hunting Eggs | Easter 2016

Hunting Eggs | Easter 2016

Posted by
Yesterday was Little Love's first Easter and although she was way too little (3 weeks old) to remember it, let alone participate in the usual kid Easter traditions such as dying eggs, smashing confetti eggs or going on an egg hunt, that didn't stop us from being corny and having an egg hunt just for her. Daddy was more than happy to oblige and helped Little Love find her eggs that grandma put together for her.

Side Note: These pictures only show a glimpse of how amazing Anthony is and I fall more and more in love with him with each passing day.










 If only you could hear the conversation he was having with her, makes my heart melt (insert heart eyes emoji).

Baby Girl Nursery | Crib & Bedding

Baby Girl Nursery | Crib & Bedding

Posted by
If you follow me on Instagram, you know the nursery is a bit of a mess since it is hosting all of our baby shower decorations and such. Despite that, we were able to make a little progress with setting up the crib and styling it with Little Love's bedding.


I don't know about you other mommas out there but just having this set up makes it all the more real. I love passing by her room and seeing the crib, I daydream of what it will be like for her to finally be here. Anthony and I will even go in the room some evenings and just sit on the floor and chat. It also makes me excited that my vision for this room is coming together.

The quilt was a custom order from Ink and Thread Quilts. Melinda was a pleasure to work with and the quilt came out better than I could have imagined. I sent in my inspiration picture and she went straight to work sending me updates and finalizing fabric color decisions. 



Does this pillow look familiar to you?


 It was apart of the original guest bedroom design and we were lucky enough that it also fits into Little Love's nursery design. The colors match perfectly with the colors in our quilt. We purchased it from Touchee Feelee. Euodia, the shop owner, was inspired by the scales of a salmon fish when she created this design and she did a wonderful job.



Originally we wanted one of those really large giraffes for Little Love's room but those are quite expensive so when we saw this giraffe on sale at Hobby lobby we picked it up immediately as our very first purchase for Little Love. 

It also has sentimental meeting since it is a TY beanie baby. As a kid my grandmother would always gift me with one for all occasions. I actually have my collection in the attic and plan to go through some of them to hand down to Little Love.


So it may not be much progress but at least we have something done. I am currently working on a DIY art project that will be displayed above the crib [UPDATE: fabric kite tutorial here] and again if you follow me on Instagram, you already got a peek as to what is is I am working on. You can also look for my #littlelovesnursery on Instagram for live updates.

Maternity Photoshoot | Little Love

Maternity Photoshoot | Little Love

Posted by
I decided to document our pregnancy as a way to get all my feelings and emotions out and to later look and remember this beautiful time in our lives. I hope you enjoy if you decide to follow along on this life changing journey.

Last weekend, our friend Nick was able to take our maternity pictures for us. We wanted to do them in enough time to display for our babyshower at the end of this month. It rained the day before and was forecasted to rain that day as well but we were lucky enough that it did not. Also luckily, I gave myself two outfit options, one for cold weather and another for warm weather as one never knows what to expect with this bipolar Texas weather. We are so happy with how amazing these came out and that we were able to get this beautiful season in our lives captured. Be warned, this post is very photo heavy.








 












 







  







 





 



I am so blessed to be married to this man and that he will be the father to our children. Each passing day I fall more and more in love with him (if you can't tell). I enjoy the interaction he already has with little love and know I will fall more deeply in love seeing him fall in love with our little girl. 

Man, it is still hard to believe we were chosen to have this beautiful adventure together.
