Aqua and Rose Treasury

I love this color combination, it reminds me of babies, spring, a garden by the beach, and Victorian romance, it's a classic and it's lovely.

Gorgeously Gratifying Green

Here's my new green treasury.

Teal Treasury

Here is my treasury to honor that tantalizing color TEAL 

Why Kids Don't Need Toys

I am a bit of a minimalist when it comes to a lot of things and toys are one of them, yet even with the few toys my kids have they spend most of their play time playing with things that certainly weren't intended to be toys.  Here are a couple of pics of my kiddos pretending to be robots.  ( Sorry I didn't rotate the first one.)

Two Treasuries

 

I thought I'd make an Etsy treasury list for each of the colors I featured in my "Flattering Colors" post so you can see even more of why these colors are so great.  The first two are Captivating Coral and Elegant Eggplant with the rest coming soon.

And Now I have Three

Without further ado here is my newest addition with her two big sibs.

Sorry it's taken me so long to get around to posting pics of my new addition, we were staying at my mom's until recently and I didn't have my card reader or my computer available so the only pictures I could post were from my phone and none of them were quite good enough for me.  (I was also exhausted for the first little while after having her but that only accounts for the first month and she's 3 1/2 months now.)  

Her birth went so smoothly that I only pushed once(ish) and she was out, I'm very grateful to her for making life with three about as easy as it could be, it's harder than two was for me but I'm loving almost every minute of it.

More pics will be coming soon.

My First Blogger Award and a New One As Well

I think it's a great way to spread the love and introduce you to some new people as well, so here we go:

Creation Addiction

Nearly Neutral Colors That Will Look GREAT on Everybody

Don't you get sick of wearing mostly Black, Brown, Beige, etc.  I certainly do and there are plenty of colors out there that look great on every skin tone and are "almost" neutral because they go with almost every other color out there so they are also easy to accessorize.

I love all of these colors but my very favorite right now would be:

TEAL

Falling Off Shoulders of Giants

I don't want this post to come off as a long lecture so I'll keep it really short.

It seems to me that we are becoming a society that is more and more enthralled with who and what is popular or sensational at the moment and less and less concerned with what has come before us and what we can do for those who come after us.

I just want to pose this question.

How can we stand on the shoulders of giants if we aren't even aware they existed in the first place.

A Great Read

I had only heard of this Grimm's fairy tale once before a long time ago

Sorry

What with moving and a new baby due any day now I haven't been blogging, or even reading all your wonderful blogs, for a while but now that I can use my DH's laptop hopefully I will find time to blog at least once a week.  I'd love it if any of you would like to guest post as well, esp. since it'll take all my energy just to take basic care of my three kids for the first couple of weeks after the baby gets here.

I'm working on a new post now, let's se how long it takes me to post it.
