We are all still a bit sick around here and so much is going on (including good stuff for Mer Mag and the blog!) so it’s been a bit crazy trying to get up the posts I had planned for this week. One such post was a recap of this little man’s 4th birthday party. …
My talented friend Meta, of One More Mushroom (killer new blog about desiging kids spaces that you will just die for), was so nice to help me out with an impromptu photo shoot involving myself and the boys and a few of our crafts that we have worked on. I realized that I didn’t have …

All I can say is that this is the last summer installment and we are off to …
My talented little sister managed to squeeze in some digital processing between morning sickness, birthdays and the usual busy mom schedule so that I could show you all the rest of these photos she took of our little family.
