All Good Things Must Come to an End

It's so true...

because after much deliberation,
I am no longer offering Table Numbers/
Instruction Cards in my shop.


Not only am I already super busy with cootie orders, but the table numbers were really taking up so much of my time. I've found myself using every spare moment to assemble them, and that's just not the way I want to live my life right now, forsaking these especially precious moments with Caden.

Sorry for any inconvenience to any prospective customers out there who were considering ordering my table numbers! I will be finishing my current orders and then sticking with what I do best- Cooties!

Easter Cuties

We had such a fun time visiting family and getting all three little ones together!

Caden looked so adorable in his little suit coat. What a dapper little man!

I think Isabelle thought so too! :)
And of course, she looked pretty cute in her dress...


...which she had to change out of almost immediately, haha.


Layton, such a sweetie with all that hair! Be sure to take his shirt's advice to heart- "Lock up your daughters!" LOL


I just love this next shot of Layton's feet. Caden and Layton weren't bothered too much by the grass, but Isabelle was having none of it!


Oh, it is just too fun having all three of them so close in age!


Hope you had a blessed Easter. We sure did!
