two weeks old

The mini papercut is now two weeks, as of yesterday. She loves to eat, and during the day she loves to sleep...night time, not so much:) But I can't complain, she's been pretty easy to fit into my other kids' schedules, and we can already see how stubborn and scrappy she's gonna be! We're in for a lot of trouble with this one:) She's the perfect fit!

how cute

I just adore these! They are so cute, and I know I'll be purchasing a few of them for Christmas gifts:) They're made by the very talented HandaMade, and they're available here.

now we are five ;)

This past Monday marked my 38th week of pregnancy. For those of you who have been following me, you know that I've been dying to complete my nursery nook for the mini papercut before his/her arrival, and last week we pretty much got everything into place (pics will follow soon, I promise). Well, it looks like we were just in time, because on Thursday, at 7:40am, we welcomed our third and final child into this world...and yes it is a girl! Phew, no repainting ;)




















Since my first child was a girl, named with the letter 'A', and our second child was a boy, also named with the letter 'A', we thought it only fitting that our third and final child's name should start with the letter 'Z'. So without further ado here is our mini papercut...Zoe :)

happy thanksgiving

Just wanted to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you're all enjoying this long weekend and spending it with those close to you:)

butterflies + flowers

As we get into the home stretch of my pregnancy, the nursery nook is FINALLY near completion, and the rest of the master bedroom is also moving along. We ordered our new bed last week...white leather:), and today we are picking up the dresser/changing table for the nook. We still have a bit of a way to go as far as completing the entire room, but for now my main concern is being ready for the mini papercut who should be arriving within the next week or so:) Now I know I've blogged about not being sure about the sex of my little bun in the oven, my gut has always been that I'm having a girl (my instincts were right with my two older kids), and I've decorated accordingly. So here's a sneak peak at the butterfly garland and paper flower bouquet I rustled up for my wee one.
