Emery is getting to be quite the big girl! She’s up to 5 pounds now and is constantly squirming around in my belly. It’s crazy to see my whole stomach move. In fact, that’s about all I can see when I look down. The sight of my feet is just a distant memory these days....

pink shower
How cute is this invitation for my baby shower next month? Jennifer, Danielle and Becca are putting it together for me and they are doing such a fabulous job! Even though I never really considered myself a “pink” person before getting pregnant, I can’t seem to get enough of it now. The baby pink is...

keep your eye on the birdie
While I’m not usually into feathered flying things, I found this musical mobile from Bananafish and thought the little birdies were really cute. The vintage looking fabric is cool and I think the turquoise and brown will add a nice little pop of color without being too loud. The striped fabric on the arms might...

danielle’s alexandra
Even though she wasn’t scheduled to arrive for another week, Danielle and Jason’s little girl made her big debut yesterday at 11:44 AM. This was my first sighting of her that Jason posted. She is so adorable! I made my way over to visit the proud mama and see the little cutie. The pictures just...

not quite pepto bismol…
Is it already Monday? I’m still in Sunday mode.It was a busy weekend and a lazy weekend. Those two seem to go hand in hand lately as most tasks like straightening my hair, unloading the dishwasher and putting on boots require a little rest or at least a deep breath afterward. Even so, I feel...

creating a nursery – stage 1
I know you’ve all been sitting on the edge of your seat waiting hear what we plan to do about a nursery. You saw my inspiration ideas weeks ago and only now am I getting around to some of those very important details. First thing’s first. I ordered a crib back in November which was...

one of those days…
In the early weeks and months of being pregnant, it was sometimes all I could do to drag myself out of bed, keep my eyes open during the day and avoid falling asleep at 5:30 on the couch. It seems like I was tired all the time. I was so happy when I traded those...

from Hunter & Jami plus one
Here are about half of the cards I finally mailed today. Sorry if you’re on the list and you don’t get one by Christmas. They also say Happy New Year, so as long as they arrive in 2010, I think I’m safe. It actually didn’t take as long as I thought to pick up the...

a new addition
What an exciting year this has been so far and it’s only October! I’ve definitely been a lucky girl in 2010. A romantic engagement in February, showers, lots of planning, a beautiful wedding in July, a fabulous honeymoon, moving into a new house and now? For starters, a snazzy new car! Do you love it?...

Invitation How-To’s
While the wedding and honeymoon are slowly fading to blissful memores, there are still lots of details I haven’t shared. How about the invites for one? They set the tone of the wedding and really are the first impression your friends and family have of the big event. I sent more thought on this than...

Invitations Have Left the Building!
After much browsing other blogs, flipping through wedding magazines, clipping, contemplating, creating, font-changing, re-creating, and editing, I was finally able to design an invitation I was satisfied with and now I can officially say they are DONE! They are black and white (of course), but I didn’t want them to be all solid colors, too...

Breakfast at Gravel Road
I finally made it to Gravel Road for breakfast – twice. It’s that good. If you haven’t been yet, then believe me when I say you’re missing out. Everything is delicious. So far I’ve tried the 3 eggs plate and the Pigs in a Blanket with Hunter opting for short stacks both times. They open...

Chick-fil-a Day
My sister Jennifer and I spent the better part of the weekend in Atlanta after we went to a ceremony for her hubby Mike at Chik-fil-a’s corporate headquarters on Friday. He just finished a six-week training program and we celebrated his moving up the ranks. Congrats Mikey! He is officially a store operator now! It...

I Want a Tassimo!
I was over at my friends Jason and Danielle’s house the other day and got to test out Jason’s new Christmas present – the Tassimo Hot Beverage System. It is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time and now I desperately want one of my own. This mini machine magically makes...

Piggy Cake
I showed the invitations for this backyard BBQ awhile back, but I didn’t show off one of my proudest accomplishments – the pig cake. That’s right. I made a cake that was not only edible, but tasty, pink and looked like a little piglet. It was a minor miracle. Most everyone who knows me, knows...
