My baby is TWO!

I cannot believe Zofia turned two this week. She is such a joy and blessing to all of us. I love seeing each of her siblings enjoy her and we are so thankful for her being in our lives!


The stroller was a big hit. I think she would have slept with it if she could have gotten it in her crib!

To Go, or not to Go

I am not so fond of naked baby pictures, but these were too good to pass up. This was done of her own accord. Apparently she thinks this is all that gets done on the toilet because she wiped up and flushed afterward, but did not pee!

The Kids

Mo and Zoe were begging for their picture to be taken - so this is what I got. Zofia has food in her mouth - of course! When my parents were here in Aug my mom brought rollers and set the girls hair! I don't have such fond memories of my mom doing this to me every Sat night!

Orange Room

I debated a long time about this wall color. I do love it. I need the right fabric for curtains and the room will really feel good to me. One would think I could find something in the new fall fabrics - but I don't really want something with leaves on it!

Girls' Room

I saw this done in a coffee shop and it was way more complicated and nicer, but loved the idea. This vase came from the dollare store and I just hung it with a ribbon. It was more charming when the flowers were alive!

My grandmother bought this doll when she was 16! I love having this old doll and carriage. The dresses hanging on the walls were made mostly by her and some by my mom when I was little for my own dolls. Memory lane! Wonder what my kids will be displaying that I have made. Hmmm.I painted and stenciles Moses old dresser for the girls' room. I also put their initials on their bed frames instead of the wall. Gives them a little custom look.

Moses' Room

It felt a little boring painting Moses' room all blue and I may change it again, but this looks good with the red. I love the old jars on his red shelf and the quilt made by Josh's mom. I need a new curtain idea and until then this is fine. The blue in his room is a little darker than this actually appears.

Baby Chicks

Breanna got to bring baby chicks home from school one night. I must have counted and recounted 50 times. I was so worried they were going to get out. The kids thought they were the cutest things ever. This is as close as they get to owning a pet!
