i'm so, so happy to finally be posting this. our little man, dominic iv was born on march 27 at 1:09am, weighing in at a big boy 9lbs, 8oz and 21 inches long. we're so happy that he is here and couldn't possibly be more in love with him.
hello project life | week 11.
one of the things that i noticed while working on this weeks' spread was that i have grown attached to using two colors. last week was blue and white, and before that was turquoise and grey. this is definitely something that you will see a lot of from here on out simply because i love the way it flows. i'm also kind of moving away from rounding off all of my corners, but whose to say that will stick around for good :)
it's really almost as if i have no words to describe being where i am right now. 39 weeks. it's been such a journey, to say the least. i am impatiently waiting for this little guy to decide to come into the world. i'm trying my best to dot my i's and cross my t's, while navigating increasing pelvic pain and insomnia. things may be a little quiet here for the next while, but for good reasons.
hello project life 2013 | week 10. for this weeks' spread i was definitely inspired by the simplicity of Tracy's work.
this week details my maternity shoot that i had a couple weekends ago, as well as some more preparations for the baby (we got the car seat installed in my car! right on!) and some knitting that I did for him.
now we are just waiting for the baby to fill it!
i really put a lot of thought into every aspect of the room, and i love that everyone seemed to have pitched in somehow, whether it was my father-in-law painting the room, dom putting together the crib, my mom and aunt sewing the curtains, me making the crib skirt, our friends providing the adorable artwork above the shelves, aunts buying the worlds softest elephant stuff animal and baby blanket, and all of the great hand-me-down shoes, toys, books and clothes that we have received. it's as though there is a piece of everyone in this room.
i really couldn't be more happy with how it turned out, and i can't wait to hear what you all think of it!
Hello project life | week 9.
This week I opted to again try something a little different and use some larger photos and minimal embellishments to highlight the completed nursery. I honestly love the way this weeks' spread turned out and the look + style is definitely something I hope to repeat again this year.
