Last Week at Our House...

 Packing Jared's work lunches.

 Have you ever gone through those times where you are SO HUNGRY? 
That's me. I've been cooking everything!

 I made a banner for my nephews first birthday. I think it turned out pretty well!

I also made these cool tissue orbs decorations for the little guy's party.

 I can't wait until we can have a first birthday party for our future baby!

 On the left is our new door. Much classier than the old "hardly ever shuts" door.
And on the right is Owlbert who now lives on my desk. He is made of a TP roll and Owlbert is also classy.

I have grown to love these little 5 pounders. Working out a little everyday. 

 We didnt have a place for all of my pins so I made this neat-o pin holder out of an old mason jar and some fabric. 

 The sunrises around here have been just wonderful. 
Peaceful. 
Bliss.


 Jared deciding jalapenos would look great on his finger tips. Hopefully he didn't rub his eyes... again..

 5am mornings. Bitter sweet. 
Make up and coffee half asleep.

 Sewing sewing sewing.
 Right now I am working on a dress, and a couple days ago I finished these sweet leggings!

Sorry I have not been posting a ton lately! Let's just say there is a lot going on in our little world.

Posting more soon!

A Question About Short Hair & My New Favorite Book


^---Right now this is my favorite book.
Yes, it is a children's book and I am an adult but quite frankly, I don't care! A good book is a good book right?  Right, right! For the most part it lives on our fridge next to our new, neat-o globe. *4$ Thrift Store find! Woop! Woop!* All the short stories within it are written really differently than the Disney stories I grew up with, which is a really refreshing change! Some of them are just totally ridiculous but others are just so wildly original, I love it! Jared and I have been reading random stories before bed and something I have learned is to have him read every other page or he falls asleep almost instantly...
 -_- ...z z Zz... 
...which is rather discouraging when it took almost a week to read him 2 pages. I am not even joking.
He looks so sweet though, how could I be mad? However I think it might be a good idea to slow down on reading these crazy stories right before bed since it has been provoking some intensely weird dreams. I keep dreaming of bears. Bears. BEARS. BEARS!


And lastly as for my hair question...
So right now, my hair looks about like this.
Well, not really. My hair is really curly so this is after about 20 minutes of straitening. Everyday Single Day.
I don't know about you, but that is a lot more time than I want to spend on my hair every morning.
Any ideas on how to gracefully grow out hair with out looking like Napoleon Dinomite or Shari Lewis?

Hope you and an amazing day!
