High-res
2012 will go down as the year I fell in love with the color yellow.

So sweet.





When Amelia saw the photos I took this morning of her sister with the flowers while she was at school, she insisted I take some photos of her with the azaleas, too.
Amelia’s dress is from Old Navy, it’s on sale right now for only $8, and her sandals are from Salt Water.
I recently found a vintage yellow gingham sheet while out thrifting. The possibilities of what I can do with it are endless. My mother knows someone who sews, and is going to ask her if she will make a skirt for both of my girls with this sheet. I think they would be for perfect spring!

Here are a few of my favorite things made with yellow gingham that I found in a recent Etsy search.

I am having a love affair with the color yellow lately. I am already thinking about ideas for Maggie’s second birthday in May, and I think I will order these pretty pinwheel cupcake toppers for her party.

I found this vintage wood doll highchair at the flea market a few weeks ago for $10!
It was in good condition, but it needed a little spruce up.

Amelia helped me sand the highchair before I painted it.

I applied two coats of sunny yellow spray paint and….

The result is a pretty highchair that my girls are eager to play with!
On a side note, this is my 3,000th blog post. Wow!
Today is yet another rainy day here in sunny Florida. So while Amelia was at preschool, and Maggie took a nap, I pulled everything out of our kitchen, filled the sinks with bleach, and started cleaning. This was long over due. As many of you mamas know, when you have small children, you spend lots of time in this part of your home, and there are a lot of messes made here, too. I like looking at photos of other people’s living spaces, so I thought you might enjoy seeing my newly scrubbed kitchen. ( I also took these photos to prove that my kitchen was REALLY clean once.)

New yellow shoes arrived in the mail today. I am going to wear them Sunday for our engagement photo shoot. So excited!
