She's here!

Oh debi you deserve a hero cookie! Priscilla sure knows how to get our attention, after 2 days of labour she finally came! And I feel so blessed to be at the hospital only hours after to hold her. She is stunning, and truly fits the saying "as cute as a button". I got to snap a few pictures while I was there but nothing fancy, that will come this week! Huge congrats to the parents and big siblings Fabio & Presley.

canada day

This Canada Day we hit up the parade,

 One of Levis favourite floats, its Mater!

 My 2 boys!

 Levi grabbing some candy! It took us forever to convince him to grab some.

 He and this little girl kept sharing their candy, it was so cute!

 We saw Auntie Trisha!

This is the trumpeter for the horse races, he's in a band!

it happened, somehow

i don't even know how this really happened but im really excited about it. remember my last post about the hair accessories I made for debi? well it turned into me making 60 more plus toddler clips. then it turned into a little business. im loving it, because i wasn't busy enough i thought i'd throw this in the mix. wanna go check it out? please do, feel free to share with friends and family. and you know me, of course we had to kick it off with a giveaway.

a baby girl!

 Remember the maternity shoot I did for Debi, well Priscilla now that you've got your accessories you can come any day now.  I am not patiently waiting. I almost feel like I'm pregnant with how long this is dragging on, almost. I love, love, love the way these turned out, I think I'll have to make myself some! Some are sewed on to the head bands I made and others are on clips to rotate through headbands or to put right on if Priscilla has lots of hair.

Now that should help this make more sense.

How cool is that, does it really work tho? Well we gave it a test run today!

This was the first one, I wanted to try one out and see if it works. Cause I want to make one for Levi's birthday.

Then I let Levi color the piece of sand paper to create this:

 

Total cost: FREE
We had onesises, crayons, sandpaper, and an iron already.

Kind of excited about this!

Do you see what I see??

I did two posts today so don't forget to look below for the "birthday bash".

Birthday Bash!

JULY 23, 2012 {monday}

10:00am - 3:00pm {picnic @ 12}

The Calgary Zoo

Here's our e-vite, the formal one's are coming!

We understand that a lot of people won't be able to make it but want to invite you anyways. 

Here's the plan:

We are staying over in Calgary Sunday night and then heading to the zoo at 10am with a packed lunch (bring your own lunch). Eating at 12pm and we will provide the desert. Then some more sight seeing! We're making it kind of a big deal, cause all 3 of our birthdays are within 6 weeks of each other and its sort of a triple birthday party!

father's day gift.

 

 

 

 Jenn wanted to take pictures of the kids and her for Blake's father's day present. We had 4 kids 4 and under, it was chaotic but I think we got a few good shots. If you click on the pictures they turn up clearer, plus you can see how gorgeous these kids blue eyes are!

Debi and I have known each other for 3 years, we worked at Regis Salon together. I am completely ecstatic for her and Clint, they are have a baby girl any day now. I can't wait to get some baby snuggles from little Priscilla.

 

  

holst family.

I got the chance to take some pictures of my sisters family last week. It was so fun and crazy! The kids did awesome, and it may helped that we packed jelly bellies.  Not hard to get cute pictures when they have such adorable kids.

(bragging aunty moment, but check out addilous eyes, gorgeous. and benson's smile, heat breaker.)

Check out Lei Lani's blog for more pictures!

safety first

 Levi is in love with his new swim suit/life jacket (thanks jenn!!). So he insisted on wearing this swim suit to run through the sprinkler.  (levi is saying the word toy story while I take the picture)

  dad turned it up.

 

(see the new fence going in!)

 stud. total. stud.

I love me some photos to edit and play around with.

These are a few of my favourites! A huge shout out to my SIL Melissa, thanks for doing this on such short notice.
