Porter Post

I really just ought to start this post by thanking Pinterest since the genesis for all of these projects relates back to Pinterest in one way or another. So, thank you Pinterest! I went back and forth about posting this because it's so petty and I'm not trying to brag, but it's just taken forever to complete the three of these and I'm just so excited that they are done! So, for better or worse...meet my wreaths: This one took FOR-EV-ERRRRR. It was also kind of a money pit. It ended up being way more expensive than I had planned because I had to buy so much yarn and styrofoam balls (which are pretty expensive when you need like 100 of them). I'm really happy with the way that it turned out though. Another reason it cost so much is because I needed so many balls to cover the wreath base. I bought a straw wreath because it was really cheap, but it ended up costing me more because it was so thick. Had I used a wreath with a smaller surface area, it would have cost much ...

Just wanted to upload some pictures really quickly that I promised my parents/family. First of all, just to give you an idea of how much Cameron has grown check out this picture of Cam after a bath when he was just a week or so old: And check out this one when he's 10 months old! My big big boy! We finally bought Cameron a real crib too. He's been in the pack-n-play since he was born, but we thought we should get something more sturdy if we want the pack-n-play to last a long time. He makes this thing look massive though! I do love it. We bought it used on KSL with a really nice matching dresser. It wasn't as cheap as I had originally planned, but it was still much cheaper that something from the store and I just got really attached to the seller for sentimental reasons. The crib will be cherished for more reasons that just that a few of my kids will sleep in it. So, it's a fine and dandy deal to me in the end. It's so fun to see him in a real crib! We also had fun ...
