Oh Baby!!!

Now days it is so rare to hear people being surprised on the sex of the baby the day he/she is born.  My parents didn't find out with all four of us.  I had one friend that told me it's a big enough surprise having a human pop out of there that she didn't need to have that excitement of "what is it?!?" Now there are all sorts of fun ways to find out....

Whether it's biting into a yummy cookie....

Or a great excuse to throw a fun party!!!

I love this idea for a party found over at Colourofhope.com =) Mustache or Bows?? Such a clever idea!!

What do you think? Find out or not?? Throw a big bash or save some cash??

5 of my faves Tuesdays!!!

 I'm getting the sense that I'm experiencing the calm before the storm right now.  We leave Friday for a wedding in Toronto (yay), then get back on the 4th and I turn around on the 6th to go to Seattle for my brother's wedding (double yay).  Ryan won't be making the trip with me because we were already booked for a wedding that same weekend =( I am looking forward to a fun relaxing week in Seattle with the whole fam!!! I can't seem to escape weddings this summer and I kind of love it!!! Here are 5 of my faves....

5. This splendid kitchen conversion chart...I'm often asking Ryan for help in the category!

4. These fun little "Me and You" pencils =)

Happy weekend friends!! Wedding tomorrow, so that is what I'll be doing =)

Oh Baby!!!

 I'm totally jumping the gun here....but babies have been on my mind so much lately!! Nothing new I guess.  I find myself saving fabric in my favorites section on Etsy for that boy I know we will have....haha.  I think it could be because we are moving home in November and for us this means really settling down and "cough" starting a family.  So yeah, it kinda feels like when you all of a sudden are talking about rings before getting engaged.  Don't get too excited peeps....this coming from a couple that almost bought a house in Oregon a few months before abruptly moving to New York.  Plans don't seem to be our thing =)
  Anywho, onto the cool stuff!! Wanted to share some fun maternity shot ideas...I'm super duper blessed to have a very talented hubby and photog friend that I will put to work on these ideas.....eeeeek!! So fun!!!

Weddings, weddings, weddings...

 Yesterday we finished a four day Indian wedding, Ryan woke up at 2 o'clock today.  Safe to say we are exhausted.  It was something I wish everyone could experience at some point in their life.  The dancing and food was enough to make me want to do it all over again =) Here is their Same Day Edit (over 3 days)

Back to reality....

We had such a blast in Cabo....I will share pictures soon!! I always feel a little weird coming back to blogging after a little hiatus. I feel like I don't know what's going on so there is a mad struggle to get caught up and re-inspired =) This summer I think I will be feeling this often.  We are traveling a lot for work but that means I get to share some fun adventures we are having =) For now here a few little DIY lovelies that have caught my eye.....
