Recommitment Ceremony Prep

Here are a few pics of preparations I've made for our ceremony on Saturday. We'd originally planned a big bash at a local venue, but decided in recent months it might be best to tone it down with the new girl arriving just five weeks before. However, throwing a smaller backyard party means more work, so here's some of what we've been up to.

We used a variety of ribbons, more "masculine" fabrics and lace

Loads of these hearts for hanging

Pretty paper flowers to match our papel picado:

We always like to have a big basket of dress-up clothes for the kids and grown-ups to play with (just like at a Flaming Lips show)

You'll just have to wait and see what this is for:

Blogger ate my boob vampire post

I wrote a really awesome, amazing post about my little boob vampire.

Blogger ate it.
And yes...I saved as I went, but blogger still ate it.

So for now, cute kid pics. I hate "Look How Freaking Cute My Kids Are Cause I Don't Have a Life" blogs, but honest to god, I don't have a life outside of breastfeeding and daydreaming about hygiene. So gratuitous family pics. Eat 'em up, YUM!














Arthur and cousin Noah at El Guapo's









Yoshimi-inspired pink robot made by our friend Cassie Angel








Arthur's Hide-and-Go-Seek fail










Artie dressed up to see Thomas the Train Live (or something like that) with his Mimo and Papi






Artie at Joe Momma's







And finally, Arthur's new favorite toy...a 25-piece Disney Clubhouse puzzle he can finish in about 20 minutes flat. What a smartie pants!

Family of Four









Lucy & Friends

More random baby pics of Lucy and some of the new people she's met. The great thing about being a baby is that everyone you meet is a new friend.



Amelia, Michael and Carole's littlest girl (the others are grown now, though they weren't when we met them, which is kind of weird)



With Taeh, at Joe Momma's Pizza



Angelica from TCC



Hailey, our neighbor



Arthur's school pals. He loved telling everyone, "You've got to see this. Look at her ittle feet!"
