Time for another favorite - Radina's Coffeehouse & Roastery

our weekend

I honestly can't believe that it is Tuesday!
Our long (HOT) weekend went by super fast and now it is already the middle of the week.

favorites

I thought it would be fun to start occasionally posting about some of our family favorites. These may be baby items, toddler items, household items, books, movies, etc - anything we really like! Here's the first one...

Britax Roundabout

We love this car seat!

garage sale items

Earlier this week I received an email about a local family who just had a baby girl at only 24 weeks. The baby will be in the hospital for quite some time. Friends and family organized a garage sale for this Saturday to raise funds for the family. Donated items for the garage sale were requested. I decided to send along a couple of bib sets from the cotton tree with my other garage sale items.

(Please forgive the photos - I was in a hurry,
did not have great lighting and I am in need a new camera.
Enough excuses?)

This set is a gift for the baby girl.
oval baby bib with pink pearl snap and oval burp cloth
100% cotton flannel & 100% cotton terry cloth

neighbors

(Our first picture as homeowners)

I never really thought about who we might have for neighbors when we were house hunting. I was 6 months pregnant, it was hot, Jake and I were living 3 hours apart and there were not many homes on the market. We were just ready to find a good starter home and buy it.

reality

There is no way I can open my Etsy shop this week...

I am disappointed, but there is no way - even if I stayed awake for the next 36 hours. July was even busier than I expected and with Jake super busy meeting deadlines at his job, I've had to do a little adjusting lately. I AM still going to keep focusing and working toward opening my shop, while I continue to do my best as wife and mom. I hope to be celebrating the delayed GRAND OPENING within the next couple of weeks.

georgia on my mind

We knew their visit would be fast, but it was even faster than anticipated.
We spent as much time with Paul & Lindsey as possible, but they eventually needed to get back to their home in Georgia
