Our apartment is only two bedrooms so this little baby boy will be sharing a space in our master room. Basically we have a wall and small corner to decorate as a "nursery." 

We're planning on using Hazel's white crib for the baby and buying her a twin bed sooner than later. I'm following a DIY tutorial for the banner and plan on hanging it above the crib.
I love the idea of a light mint crib sheet and love this print, but I'm not committing to anything quite yet.
Unfortunately our finances and lack of space don't allow for a glider, but if I got to choose one i'm leaning towards this neutral one. Lastly, that sweet swaddle blanket with pom-poms is definitely a purchase I will be making off Etsy!

So I found these letters off a cute Etsy shop and fell in love! 

I wanted to grab them for Hazel but they were charging $50.00. umm not going to happen when were poor college kids or ever for that matter. 
I showed them to two of my cute momma friends and we decided to take on the project together. 
Total cost was $4.00 because we got all the fabric for free. I'm so happy with how they turned out and Hazel has loved playing with them. They are definitely a little quirky ( that darn "s" was sooo hard to sew) but I was glad to get to practice my sewing skills again.
I think in a year or so they'll be perfect to start doing letter sounds and names!



This Christmas break was exactly what we needed:
too much fun!!!
We played lots of speed scrabble, Skip-Bo, and interrogate Andrew. Brice grew out a nice beard...and I hate to admit it but it is oh so sexy! We visited Amish Country, built all sorts of wood projects in Grandpas' workshop, went on walks in the woods, and baked and ate way too many Christmas treats. Played with Brice's new Kindle Fire (thanks Mom and Dad!!), put my new running gloves and shoes to work, built a wall in the basement, and caught up on some fun reading. We LOVED all the time spent with Craig, Heidi, and Owen. Teaching Owen to say "woot-woot" during the basketball games was my favorite part. We are so glad we got to spend more time with Hannah and Andrew and completely support their idea of getting married in Hawaii! I'm so glad Emily and Matt came into town on our last night  so Quinn and Zack could give Brice a kick in the b-u-t-t!







Doug and Lucinda- Thank you so much for having us for such a long stay! We feel so loved and grateful for all the love and support you send our way. We have loved being spoiled this last week and can't wait to visit again!
