Harper's Shower

Now that the huge event we have been planning known as Harper's Shower is over, I finally had a minute to look at some of the pics.. I even had a little time to edit (a few) of them. There was so much love and work put into this shower. She is going to be one loved little girl just like Kennedy! I am so in love with all of her decorations for the shower so much so that most of them are going into her nursery! I am so thankful and appreciative to everyone who helped with the shower it made my day that much more special! We are very blessed and loved! More pics to follow....

Project HARPER

It seems so long since I have even had time to sit down and write a post! Life has been extremely busy!! We are expecting our little girl Harper Abigail soon! So on to the newest project... Harper's nursery. I wanted to do something really different from Kennedy's room (black, pink, and white Parisian theme) So a vintage lace, burlap, and bird cage theme!! Its still a work in progress but I have to say I am loving it so far. Almost done sewing her bed skirt. I think from starting this theme in her room my newest obsession is burlap! I love it!! Here are a few pics from the progress along the way....

Craftiness

 I have been looking at these jars to make FOREVER..... It always has been on the bottom of my to-do list.. I found a tutorial  at shanty-2-chic.com Well I decided it was time to finally make them because I have been in the Easter decorating mood lately. They look so fabulous sitting on my center island in my kitchen :)

                                                       

 Here is where I got all my supplies:

Baby Henson #2

It has been a long time since I have posted... The holidays were so busy, Kennedy started school at Montessori, and now we are expecting another addition to the Henson family :) We are very excited and blessed to be expecting again!! I am almost 11 weeks and boy has the nausea and exhaustion settled right in!! We have some pretty amazing family and friends who have helped me through this time. It will be nice when I finally feel normal again! I am trying to enjoy this pregnancy since it will be the last....  Here are a few pics of our growing baby and his/her "big" sister Kennedy. She runs around the house patting her belly saying "baby". 

Attempt #3 of getting pics of Eli and Kennedy together....

So I am bound and determined to get a good picture of these two little munchkins together!! Now that they are both mobile pretty sure I have my work cut out for me!! Kennedy wasn't feeling so well (cough and fever) so this shoot was rather difficult... I couldn't even bribe her with M&Ms... As much as I tried to "pose" them they continued to do what they wanted... Usually it was Eli falling out of the chair and Kennedy looking away from the camera, giving dirty looks, or running the other direction....They did stop to take a min or two to hold hands with each other... They are gonna be the best of friends.....

Kennedy VS Sleep (Sleep finally won)

This picture says it all... I went in to check on Kennedy after about 45 min of protest coming from her room... This is how I found her....

Sweet fall in the air...

Kennedy has been to at least 5 pumpkin patches this year. We took Kennedy up to Oak Glen so she could pick out a special pumpkin with daddy.. She had to look at each and every pumpkin in the patch before she made her choice. After some homemade apple pie and hot chocolate then off to shoot a few photos... She can now officially be "bribed" with mini m&ms.. She says cheese and shows a smile and in return gets an m&m.....Everyone is happy :)
