Jack's 1st birthday...

Today was Jack's first birthday!

We took him to breakfast, toysrus, and to the mall to play on some soft playground sort of stuff. He had a great day!!

We tried on his Halloween costume...

Our bedroom...




I've been wanting to spruce up our bedroom for a while but without spending a whole bunch of money. So this is what I did.

Postcards: http://skunkyboycreatures.etsy.com
Garland: http://sirrabbitsir.etsy.com

I love it. I still need to actually frame the postcards but they are just too cute I couldn't wait to put them up!

Hope everyone has a great weekend! Jack has a birthday party today so there will hopefully be lots of pictures to share tomorrow (or Monday).

Work in progress...

So I still have a sick baby over here... We took him to a new doctor today (who we LOVE) and he's sick. But good news is he will be better in no time. Hopefully he'll feel better by tomorrow. He has another little party for his bday :]

I crochet....but not well. I can crochet a line.... and I suck at changing colors, but this is what I'm doing. I'm making a big (HUGE) blanket for our bed. I love it so far.


I'm just using whatever colors and yarn I like, no pattern whatsoever.  It's just fun. :] And when I'm FINALLY done, I'll have a nice warm, pretty blanket!

Jackson's Birthday Bash...

We had Jack's birthday bash at my mom's house. It was awesome. So colorful and fun! It was themed around his favorite show, Yo Gabba Gabba.

























I'm sorry it took so long to post these but Jack has been sick and we've been going through some stuff around here. :)

Outfit post...

Well I don't have any cool vintage gear on but I love this shirt!


Bow shirt: Charlotte R.
Jeans: AE because I'm too short to get the short size anywhere else and even then these are long.
Little grey bag: impulse buy at AE
Oh and old navy flip flops

:)

Exhausted...

I have a big post planned from our weekend out of town, but Jackson is sick and I'm exhausted. Being gone for four days then coming home with him getting sick has worn me out. I've missed so much work that I don't even want to think about my paycheck. :(

Good news is.......... I finally ordered my very first Blythe doll! I'll have a whole post about it soon and all the fun clothes I found for her :)

It's almost 1am and I just got Jack to sleep so I better follow him.

Hope everyone is having a good week :)
