Post is short today. Izzy is sick. AGAIN. They were both sick two weeks ago! Sam finally stopped coughing and wheezing three days ago, and yesterday I caught him drinking out of her juice box. It was a slow motion “NOOOOOO!!!!!” as I saw him put the straw up to his lips. I couldn’t get there fast enough. Now just a matter of time before he’s back down with her. Awesome.

Anywho, I’ve been pulling together some of the stuff for Sam’s first birthday. I’m thinking it’s gonna turn out pretty darn cute!

I already showed you guys the invite…

And here’s some of the stuff I’ve grabbed this week.

| stripe fabric . fox tray . wood slice . burlap from my stash |

Everything has to be pretty simple and easy since we’re going to have to pack it up in the car for the 11 hour trip (more like 30 hours since we’re traveling with two littles, one of which demands to make more pee stops than a pregnant woman) up to Wichita.

I also picked up some felt to make some (fingers crossed) adorable party wear for the young guests. Once I get those put together I’ll show you. I think you’ll like!

Ok, I’m off to nurse the sick.

Simple Fall Home Tour 2018

I was in Homegoods a few weeks ago and they had just put out their Fall/Halloween items. So many fun pieces! While there I noticed a woman whose cart was LOADED with all things Fall. All I kept thinking about was how much all of that seasonal decor was going to cost. There are so…

getting back to it slowly

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and New Years! It has been so hard to get back into a rhythm again! I pulled a great one on Monday. Got Izzy ready for school and then went to pick up her buddy for carpool. No buddy. Turns out no school. Felt like an idiot….
