“Merry Everything” Graphic T-shirt and Onesie Featuring Cricut
Every other year, my little family and I spend the Christmas holidays in Texas with The Boy’s family. Those years are super fun because we’re not stressing about travel and my mother-in-law throws one FABULOUS Christmas Eve party. Tons of people show up and there’s always lots of food, music, and talking. The dress code is nice but casual so this year, I thought I’d toss the littles in some cute jeans and make adorable graphic tops for them with my Cricut Explore Air. Check out this “Merry Everything” graphic T-shirt and onesie (featuring Cricut)!

Finn’s Newborn Photo Shoot
About 15 days after Finn was born, he did a newborn photo shoot with April Deleon of Pure Happiness Photography. I just wanted something very simple and completely focused on him. Lots of naked baby, lots of light, and lots of sweetness. I also wanted to mimic the style of and a few shots from his sister’s newborn session three years ago. Here’s a few of my favorites:

Okay, full confession, I’ve never been a big Halloween person. I don’t do scary, I hate the idea of knocking on strange doors, and I didn’t grow up in a house that allowed pranks. I did love dressing up when I was younger though – but I always picked really random and weird things. Like, a purple alien or a bunch of grapes. No princesses or fairies for me! If your kid is like me and likes to have a little inventive fun then be sure to check out these 24 completely unique and original Halloween costumes for kids!

Getting Baby Ready With Mixbook
I’ve done many posts on preparing for baby and I think that I do a pretty good job of making sure that I have what is needed before the little arrives. However, after the birth of Melanie, I realized that, while I had all the stuff, I had completely neglected to make any preparations for showing her off to the world. I totally forgot to plan for birth announcements, photo books, and photo canvases to showcase all her cuteness. But on my second go around – I was prepared, y’all! I booked a newborn session with Pure Happiness Photography and knew that, when it came time, I would be getting ready with Mixbook!
