never trust a quiet toddler (part 2)

I think we all remember when Ryan spread an entire tube of diaper rash cream all over his body.
Well I said it then...
"never trust a quiet toddler."
Well, I should have listened to myself...

girls' room update.

it all started with this.

a tea-towel i found at Anthropologie.

my wonderful mom turned it into a pillow cover.

and it was all downhill from there...

(this is what happens when mommy is bored).

we (i mean I) wanted a change from the pink & green that it used to be.

santa brought them their own hooks for their backpacks.and of course, a sweet silhouette for my sweet children.

ryan's room update.

ryan's room has gotten a little update.

i think it's a pretty cool little boy room.

"i wish you all the joy that you can wish."

a few little reminders for him.

of course, a boy must be surrounded by his deerest friends.

finally gone.

On the last day of the year

She lost that one tooth

that was hanging on by a thread.

up north fun.
