A Few Friday Links

A Rainbow of albums in our record collection
What a fun weekend we have ahead of us! We’re throwing a small little birthday party for Everly & her best buddy, Mylah West this Sunday. I think elaborate birthdays are inspiring and beautiful, but pulling one off last year for Everly’s 1st was SERIOUS work. I’ve vowed to keep all birthday parties (except the big ones - 1, 13, 16, etc) low key and kid centric - so my best friend Natasha and I teamed up this year to create a simple, fun day for our girls. A few close family members, a sprinkling of friends, some red bandanas, farm animal balloons, and a menu including corndogs and haystacks - and we’ve got ourselves a “Down on the Farm” party! She’s handling the food & I’m in charge of the decorations.
Here are a few links from around the internet that I’ve really loved lately:
- Obsessed with the amazing little girl shoes on this site. (Although, I’m gonna need them to cost about half the price in order to justify buying a pair for the dove)
- How beautiful and unique are these portrait plates? As a girl who has been known to decorate her walls in mismatched china dishes, I thoroughly approve.
- My blog friend Morgan has one of the loveliest birth stories. Her words are so melty & emotional to read. I loved reading about her journey to motherhood.
- This awesome article about talking to and addressing feelings in your toddler and child has been so helpful to me. We’ve used many of these communication tactics with Everly and it’s amazing how well she responds to the validation.
- My sweet friend Jen of Jen Love’s Kev posted a great tutorial on The Style Mentors blog about how to wear colored tights during the cooler months. Hooray for rainbow hued gams!
- Need a little chuckle today? This lady has to be the coolest aunt ever! Seriously, if I was a famous pop singer, I’d be calling her up right this minute to be a back up dancer.
Anything fun on your agenda for the weekend, dear readers? You know what I’m looking forward to soon? A weekend with zero plans. - with nary a project or commitment in sight. We need to make that happen!
Love,
M
