Lunch time post

Well, its lunch time, and as the junk mail rolls into my email box, I will sit and write a post. The time has come where Lily does not need to nurse at lunch time anymore, and Darin will be working more, so I thought...why not write a lunch time blog post while I'm stuck here at work?

So let's get to the life updates. Darin's sister got married last weekend and it was the best wedding we have ever attended! She looked BEAUTIFUL! It was so much fun, I think I might have spent the entire time on the dance floor, wait...did I just say that?! It must have been a good wedding :) I was so teary eyed to see them so happy together. They are a perfect match, and I feel lucky to call them family.

My parents and sister watched Lily over the weekend and they said she was great. She stayed on her schedule, and was happy and easy going. yay! What a champ :) I found this picture of Lily on my work computer, and thought I would share it. It feels like this could have been taken yesterday <3



oh how I miss her tiny-ness! She is still a little peanut :) hehe Okay, now its time to actually eat lunch. Until next time!

oh yeah, I used to make videos!

I was digging through the ol' archives, and found this video I made. Sorry for the low quality, but you get the idea :)

AIGA Wish You Were Here postcards

I'm so excited to share the my postcard is in the running to become a top 25 winner for the AIGA Wish you were here post card competition. yay! If you want to vote for my postcard, click here

Where did the time go?

So, I meant to finish and cross off items 34–40 done on my To Do list...however, none of that happened due to internet. Ugh, my computer is like a time warp. And it doesn't help that after looking at the internet, it makes me want to tweak every single website I have out there. So now, I'm back at item 34 and its so late, my computer says its Sunday. At least I folded the laundry, but it looks like 'take a shower' will have to wait until tomorrow morning. Is it too late to start drinking wine??

Goodnight

Whew! I just finished making goodies for a craft show tomorrow at the Crofoot in Pontiac. I hope there is a good turn out, I'm excited to see the bands and to check out the stand up comedians. I'm going to be making custom valentines while I'm there, which means an entire night of lettering! Woo!

I feel exhausted after working, playing with Lily, and crafting, but its so hard to sleep when there are new episodes of Say Yes to the Dress. haha, I am so addicted to this show. I should follow the lead of my little pups and get some sleep...

here is a nice calm picture to even out the mood from my last post :)

starting to...lose......steam.....

Today has been quite a day! This morning I was featured on a great blog called Many Hats Mommy. I worked from home today because of the snowstorm, however, I am so sick :( so it wasn't all that fun. Darin is sick too! Is that even normal for both parents to be sick while baby is just as happy as a clam? I'm just waiting for Lily to get sick, any day now, maybe? It's been 7 months and she hasn't gotten anything! (is it really necessary to knock on wood at this point?).

I just hope, if she does get sick, its after I start feeling better. I'd hate to have to take care of her while sneezing all over her. :/ poor baybo!

Anyway, after work, I was motivated to put a newsletter together for Moving Beauty. If you would like to get that newsletter, you can sign up for it here. I really enjoy putting newsletters together, so this was fun work :)

I'm also very excited because I sold a wine journal today! It was in my etsy store for about 5 hours or so before it sold. yay! The wine journals are my first project with my screen printer, and they turned out great, I'm really proud of them. Man, I felt supercharged doing all of this stuff today, but now I'm just tired. whew! Time to lay down and fall asleep to TV. Goodnight.
