happy birthday, nike!



Nike turns 1 year old today! We tried to take pictures of Nike every week when we got her so that we could see her growing, but after a few months we forgot. Still, you can see her growing, so here are some pictures of her over the past 9 months.

Here she is on the car ride home from the breeder, & playing with her favorite toy the week we got her. She was 3 months old & about 18 pounds.

paintings for our new nephew


A new nephew means nursery crafts! My sister, who is a graphic designer, made these cute owl & fox graphics for me to paint for Levi's nursery. Here are some pictures of my painting process & the finished products. I think they turned out so cute!

oh boy! {nephew #4}


Levi Jarrett was born yesterday around noon. Since my sister lives in Houston, we won't get to see him for a while, so pictures will have to tide us over until we do!




What a cutie! We've always had so much fun with our nephews, so we're excited to add another to the mix!

farmer's market


The weather in Fayetteville today is perfect! Steve and I went to the Farmer's Market this morning, and we're spending the afternoon at Arsaga's reading and enjoying the weather.
