BLEUBIRD VINTAGE OFFICIAL BLOG

SUNDAY.

today marks the last sunday i will spend with my kiddos til they return from their summer vacation with their dad. i think we should make it a special one... a little bit of baking delicious treats is in order. i think we will spend the day baking pies and homemade cupcakes and cookies and drinking lemonade and taking a long walk through the neighborhood picking flowers and making a delicious dinner together. sounds perfect to me. happy sunday to you!

love, james.

update: the kiddo's decided to veto the pies & cookies and instead make a variety of home made cupcakes. on the baking agenda: red velevet cup cakes with cream cheese frosting. peanut butter cupcakes with chocolate ganache and blueberry cupcakes with maple butter frosting. oh yum!

p.s. i still have a couple basic ad spots available on my blog for june.

27 weeks! wow... one more week to go til the third trimester. crazy. time is really flying by. i wanted to do a post this week with my two girls, milla plum and baby bird. she is so excited to finally get to be the big sister let me tell ya. it was a lot of fun to shoot with her. this week has been pretty good although i am starting to feel a bit more uncomfortable and sleeping is no longer peaceful. i wake up about every 30-45 minutes due to tossing & turning, a charlie horse in my leg or due to a full bladder. i sleep with six big fluffy pillows in strategic places just to fall asleep. it's kind of ridiculous. but other than that i'm doing pretty good.
