newness

there have been some changes around here on the blog. i'm trying to "pretty" it up so i'll be motivated to be more diligent with my posting. so if you are in reader you should click over here to see all new stuff.

also see this sweet little watercolor i made using our family picture as a reference. 
yeah, i'm pretty impressed with myself.

in other news naomi started walking!
that deserves a post all its own, so stay tuned...

around these parts...


someone is growing taller and lovesssss opening any and all drawers



also we love playing with our rumbi boy..and he loves baby-size socks

naomi could read books all day long! her favorite part is turning the pages.
she's discovered how fun it is to play in small spaces.
and don't forget mr. giraffe... heaven help us if we ever lose him!

crafty lady

recently i had this grand {and time consuming} idea to make fabric doll look-a-likes. i, of course, started out with my sweet little naomi... pictured below...
she turned out pretty darn cute i think. also i learned A LOT during my first attempt so i decided i would make a "sophia" who is naomi's little neighbor friend...

and here's my 3rd attempt. i did two at once while watching conference. i think i've finally got all the kinks ironed out so these turned out SUPER cute. in my humble opinion.

london and demi.
these are for steve's two little nieces who have the same birthday in april.
i hope they like them!
