6 months + 2 years

Will + Meg
6 months + 2 years

These two hoodlums are the closest in age of all of our children. Will reminds me a lot of Meg when she was a baby. He rarely cries. He is super easy going. He is always happy and smiling. He doesn't enjoy *too* much cuddling, but I still steal the snuggles at nap time every chance I get. He is too cute for his own good. 

Will is a busy boy. He apparently wants to keep up with the other kids. He's been army crawling since aboutttt 4-1/2 months. And ruining my life. I thought I swept the floor enough before. Nope. Not enough. The kid gets extremely dirty and puts/gets everything possible in his mouth. BUT he's pretty darn cute, so I'll forgive him.

and that smile... oh, that smile. I.can't.EVEN! it's all in the eyes, I tell ya!

then there's this character. Occasionally we call her The Scavenger because she is in.to.everything! Girl doesn't stop. No joke. Just today she got up onto the changing table and smeared half a container of petroleum jelly on her cheeks, hands, and shirt :| she works fast too. So if you're wondering what I'm doing while she does this... it's either pour a cup of coffee, feed Will, use the bathroom... anything that takes 2.4 minutes and she's into SOMEthing!

In her 2 short years of life, she has perfected her mean face... below. Hilarious!

and her scary face :)

This one... this one is strong-willed, determined, stubborn... note: strong-willed! If I ever thought I had my hands full or my work cut out for me, it's with this one. Everything I thought I knew about parenting is being tested with this one. All this said, I don't want her to change a bit. I love her sass, her spunk, her crazy attitude and wild hair. The girl is developing a great sense of humor. I love to watch her grow, although I would appreciate that slowing down just a smidge! Keep us laughing, little girl :)

We love you both more than you'll ever know. Here's to another wonderful year with these two wild ones :)

etsy+ Saturday

In classic fashion, it's been awhile since I've done an etsy post. This does not mean I have been away from my computer as long as I have been away from my blog. Oh no. Not at all. I'm at my computer daily. Granted, August, September, and October have been extremely busy. I feel like this weekend we have nothing to do. And I'm searching for something to do... kind of... but not really. I was thinking of doing a Sam's run. We shall see. Okay, rambling!

Point: etsy+ cominatcha!

These are adorable, although I'm quite certain one of my children would eat at least one of them.

I'm not entirely sure what to do with this salve, but I love the packaging.

My sister, Casey, a good friend of ours, and myself are taking a ceramics class at our local high school. We're all completely in love with the class. I keep running across ideas, and I'm loving this!

Another jewelry item catching my eye that I'll probably never wear as I almost never change my jewelry.

More inspiration for our ceramics class :)

Again with the adorable packaging!

Cute item for the kids to ruin and/or lose pieces to. Maybe Will would enjoy chewing on this/these :)

No idea where this would go in my house, but I'm in love with painting a room white and adding this to one wall. Hmm... winter project in the making...

#fqr

our family spent the last beautiful weekend in September celebrating the life of an amazing woman. I'm really at a loss of words. if you knew her, you would understand. we were lucky and blessed to be able to call her family. while we weren't as close as I wish we would have been, she made a permanent imprint in our lives. I can truly say, I hope to live a life as fully and honestly and lovingly as she did. we'll miss those beautiful smiles and tight hugs.
