I knew this day was coming. From the moment she was born, the mini papercut's been turning on her side and for the last month or so she's come very close to flipping over. Well she finally made it over onto her front, and shortly after mastering that, she flipped back over onto her back! This one's in a hurry to catch up to her big brother and sister ;)

for you + me...mostly me

I've been browsing a lot on Etsy since Christmas, mostly for items for the mini papercut. I've found numerous shoes and coats that I want to get for her, but when it comes to all the little dolls and toys that I am in love with I have to ask myself...who am I really buying this for?

Black + White with Yellow Birds Soft Play Blocks by Two Stray Cats

Most, if not all of the toys that I have hearted or am in love with are not age appropriate for her. She's too little to even care, but as I pour over the pages of animals and dolls I realize that I have no intention of letting the mini play with any of them until she's much older, and that my main reason for choosing many is because they would look cute in her room.

So again I ask myself, who is this really for? I have to admit that I think it's mostly for me under the guise that I'm buying for her. Maybe it's because she's my littlest one or maybe it's because everything I've seen is so darn cute that I just can't help myself!

Either way, she'll be getting quite a bit of mail in the next little while that will probably bring mommy more joy than her! Oh well, she can play with them when she's older;)

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!

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 :)
