Big Announcement/Where I've Been


You may have noticed it's been a little quiet around here the last few months. And that is because our family is very excited to be welcoming Baby Boy #2 early this November. We are overjoyed and feeling so blessed to be able to give Easton a sibling.


We really wanted to build on Easton's Disney pregnancy announcement but by the time we felt ready to take photos the weather had already gotten a little warm for a pregnant lady and toddler to try and take pictures in front of the castle so we decided to take some photos on the beach locally and incorporate a little bit of Disney for good measure. 


I designed the sign in PicMonkey (basic version is FREE) and had it printed up on card stock at Staples. We attached it to wooden dowels to get it to stay up in the sand. 


While taking these photos seems like it would be easy it was a disaster. Every time we tried to go to the beach to take them it would either rain or winds would be blowing 20 MPH. And to top it all off, Easton decided to be a true toddler and refuse to cooperate. I had grand plans of different styles of pictures but these were the best we got so we rolled with it. Such is life. 


I was excited that we got to use Easton's June & January anchor tank shorty for the photos. I actually found J&J but seeing images of their original anchor print from when they were formally Little Hip Squeaks. I followed the image from Pinterest to their new website only to find out it had been discontinued. So naturally I spend weeks on the BST pages tracking down old LHS anchor items and when they announced that anchors would be re-released this summer I made sure to grab a few things in Easton's size. New to June & January? Use this link and the code it takes you to for 15% off your first purchase. And Easton's outfit is on sale which is even better! 


We've had an amazing summer as a family of 3.5 and I can't wait to start blogging again after a relaxing break. Hope you have all enjoyed relaxing and restful summers too!
