Babies and showers!

Ladies, gird your loins and ovaries, there are cute kid pictures ahead! Saturday I joined a bunch of awesome girls at my friend Casey’s house to celebrate our friend Laurel getting knocked up for the second time. Yayyyy! It’s a girl! Look at that crafty banner!

Babies and berfdays!

Saturday afternoon was my friend Laurel’s baby shower. It’s very weird to see how many of my friends are pregnant or already have kids. It’s more than I realized and I don’t think I can count how many times someone hinted at, asked or mentioned the concept of me having a kid like pretty much immediately. Not yet, thanks! I’ll admire all your kids instead. We gave her some baby slings which were on her list, but I wanted to add in something more personal so I tried embroidery for the first time and made this baby shirt with a design I adapted from Sailor Jerry tattoo flash. I think she liked it, but it might be too small for the baby, which...
