nesting

Aug 22, 2011

Last year our family didn't sent out any Christmas cards (They're kind of a lot of work).  My husband let me know that this year he really wants to send some out. So this last Sunday I had my wonderful sister in-law snap some shots of our family.  Yes, I understand that it is AUGUST, but come on, if I waited any longer I would have entered the "huge" stage of pregnancy where no angles are flattering (For me anyways...I hate you Sydneyjust kidding, I love her.) OR my other option was to take a new family photo the second after I have my child when I am not pregnant but still look 6 months along... yeah. no.
Plus, (I am embarrassed that I am admitting this) I am on a total Christmas kick.  Seriously. 
I just sewed an advent calendar and made Christmas banners to go all over my house. 
 I'm crazy, I know.
It's my weird way of nesting I think.  Baby boy will be born in November and I will be such a tired wiped out new mommy that I won't be able to enjoy the holidays and make traditions. This way I am technically "crazy" but when the holidays come I'll be ready to go.
Don't you worry I have like 5 Halloween projects in the works too.

So here are some outfit photos from the day of our little family shoot!

Top~ Target 3.00, Skirt~Thrifted 3.00, Necklace~Walmart 3.00, Belt~Thrifted 1.50,  Shoes ~ Nordstrom Rack  Gift





Hope you are all having a great Monday!! 
I am off to teach hip hop class... Wish me luck.
Yes, feel free to laugh at the idea of me "hip hopping" around in my condition.
xoxo~

  2. I can't believe you found that skirt thrifted... it is so cute.  Did you have to hem it or change it at all to make it maternity?  You look so cute.  I just finished a Halloween quilt and am working on 2 more Halloween projects and can't wait to start Christmas stuff, so no, you're not crazy, you're just awesome!

  10. Do things while you can and still have the energy.  I had my son the day before Thanksgiving almost two years ago.  Let's just say, we never got our tree up or the house decorated that year.  I barely got Christmas cards out.  It may seem early but once the baby's here you won't have the time.

    don't worry. i loooooove Christmas. I'm already looking up craft ideas for decorations online so that when Christmas comes I will be prepared. I also really love Christmas music and around this time of really I really start to miss it, so I may or may not play it on the way to work occasionally.
