{Sweet & Simple}

I designed business cards for one of my favorite clients, Kelly from Sweet & Simple Jewelry. I adore her work and recently purchased these earrings and I love them! My new favs!

 She is so phenomenal to work with, which is why I agreed to design her Etsy banner for her new shop, opening soon! Be sure to favorite Sweet & Simple Home and await it's glorious opening!

Our newest wedding invitation design is fun, unique, grey - who doesn't love this happening hue, and chic! We have more designs coming so be sure to check back.

{Apple Saucy Fun}

This adorable hat was a gift from Evie's great Aunt Lisa. It was handmade by her mom. We love it, Lisa! Thank you!

Little Evie is now 7 months old and busier than ever! She is so curious and loves playing with mommy's phone and random dials are her new trick:) She now has little chompers! Her 2 bottom teeth came in last week but it's not helping her eating situation. Evie loves everything to be in her mouth...except for food, besides crackers and cheerios, that is. One food she particularly despises is apple sauce!

{DIY Play Felt Food}

For Christmas, I made a few batches of felt breakfast food for some of my nieces. The pancakes, bacon and eggs turned out great and were super easy to make! I plan to make many more items in the future for Evie:) My inspiration came from Natalie from The Busy Budgeting Mama. She offers some links to great tutorials or you can just wing it like I did by looking at pictures. Thank you, Natalie!

Evelyn was 6 months old on New Years Day! She is now scooting forward. She is so determined! We're still working on eating table food...she's picky. I guess she gets it honestly. My oldest brother nick named me "Picky Nikki" when I was a baby:)

A friend of ours visited after Christmas to take some photos of Evie. Check out his amazing work!

A little update on Evie:

Evelyn is 5 months today! I cannot believe it. Time is going much too fast and I'm just trying to take in all the adorable little moments:) Evelyn started rolling over when she was just over 3 months, continues to roll and even scoots a little now. She's still in size 1 diapers, weighs about 13 lbs. or so, and is really long (she gets that from her daddy). Evie loves playing with her toy rings or anything she can get in her mouth:) She finds daddy totally hilarious, esp when he does jumping jacks! Evie loves her headbands (she told me so) and rarely leaves the house without one! To most of the world, she may appear bald, but we can see the peach fuzz that stands straight up on her sweet head:) She (usually) eats and sleeps like a champ. Some say we are in for a treat when # two comes along! She's our little rock star:)

{Gorgeously Vintage}

So while doing some online Christmas shopping, I came across some of the most gorgeous items! I want to shop for myself:)
