I have been listening (and singing along..) to this album A LOT, haha, I am a dork but I have always had a thing for 70s soft rock type stuff (maybe I grew up hearing my mom sing to it on car rides?!) anyway I love it and many of the pretty meloncholy songs bring tears to my eyes...(!)

I am frustrated because I have lost the charger for our digital camera, so I have been missing out on lots of cute pictures of Isla...I am a very unorganized person, I am trying to get better at this, but maybe instead of ordering a new charger (since I know it will pop up soon..) I can finally get this plastic camera I have wanted for so long...its like $50 and takes cool pictures.

I always love the lounge wear at Anthropologie... sadly I never get any because I can't justify spending that much on clothes I just wear around the house...though these are cute enough to wear everywhere I think! I am a sucker for anything soft and comfy....

these photos make me feel good...I wish I could crawl inside them and be there.

I love this braided hair so much, can someone teach me how to do it please? : ) I don't think I am coordinated enough to do it on myself though.

I am so obsessed with Jcrew right now.

I was just browsing the sale at Crewcuts...I would love to get these for Isla!

so after I finished my quilt, I was anxious to start a new project. the lady at Peapod fabrics made a comment about me doing another quilt....like maybe I should branch out and do something else. I want to, but I had this idea for a SMALL quilt, so I am doing it. The last one I did is pretty big and I wanted one Isla could take around with her in car/stroller etc. so these are the new fabrics I picked out....

I just love working with gorgeous fabrics...I don't mind all the time spent cutting and measuring. this is such a fun creative outlet for when you have to stop and chase a toddler around every other minute, compared to oil painting for instance. The last one was very PINK (which is OK, pink is my fave) but this one I chose darker hues. I am just playing around right now but I think I have decided on this pattern. I have a feeling this is going to take me a while.
