Naomi's First Playdate

Today we spent the afternoon with my friend, Leslie, and her two girls, Marissa and Allison.


Marissa is an excellent big sister and you can really tell that she loves babies. She was very attentive towards Allison and "Nomi"


Isn't this cute? Allison grabbed hold of Naomi's shirt and was holding on for dear life.



Aren't her eyes just gorgeous!?!
And those cheeks so squishable?
She has such a sweet disposition too!


I couldn't get Naomi to smile, but she and Allison hung out on the floor for quite a while.


Thanks for having us over! We had a great time :)

Ten Weeks Old

Can you believe this little monkey is already 2 and a half months old?



She loves being propped up and has great neck control!



Her daddy gives her lots to smile at!




And she is still lovin' the frog!

Clean House: The Art of Repurposing

The other day while I was in my hideously messy basement I found myself looking for items to purge. I absolutley loathe my basement, and you will not be seeing a picture of its atrociousness.


However, I did stumble across three of these. What is it? A plain, white, plastic crate. Nearly every college student has owned one of these babies in their lifetime.

While looking at the crate I began to think about how I could use it elsewhere in the house, when I remembered my sister gave me the leftover fabric from this:

Kelly made curtains to match Naomi's room and we were able to remove the ugly wooden doors. Hooray!



So, I located the leftover fabric.

But, I wasn't sure if there was enough to complete my project. So we dropped Naomi off with Grandma and Grandpa and my honey and I went off to Jo-Ann Fabrics. I believe it is every man's dream to accompany his wife to a crafting mega-store :)


While we were there, I bought this fabric, which also matches Naomi's room.


So the past few days while my baby was:

I would work on my project.

But I could only work on it for little bits of time because otherwise I would have to deal with this:

Once my project was finished, I was able to transform the mess under the changing table in her room to look like this!!





( She still isn't sleeping in her crib, but never fear, once she is I'll remove the stuffed animals)

Thank you Clean House for teaching me the art of repurposing!!
