The 2017 Stocking Reveal! CORBAN: wrestling partners (always + first year at real practices) JAEDA: a colored pencil (for all her drawing) LIDDI: curly hair (first year we realized her curly hair was here to stay) This is the tutorial I used. CRUSOE: stairs (because he always giggles with glee and...
It's that time of year when I update the Christmas stockings. I love all these jewel tones together! Corban learned to read this year. Jaeda wore a dress 360 of the 365 days. Liddi is the jokester of the family. And Crusoe just gets his name, because let's face...
Corban got a scooter decal this year to represent his athleticism (and blatant love for scooters). It also reminds of many scooterings to our park, falling down, learning new things, beating fear, meeting lovely neighbors, and breathing fresh air. I'm sure the scooter will be...
Missionary friend Ben Miller built and stained our beautiful farmhouse table and buffet shelf for us. (Plans found at www.ana-white.com.) We love it so so so so much! Whoa. Two kids live here.

Burp cloths and a linen blanket for baby Lily. Material from this Etsy shop...
I sewed a hat for Jaeda, since she's outgrown all her newborn hats. The yellow strip is from a dress I long loved. This might be my favorite picture. Ever. My little beauty. She's taken quite a liking to that thumb. Just chewing, no sucking (thankfully). So coy. "That ear looks so...
Felt Christmas tree: This is totally a Pinterest idea (as are the stockings from the last post), but I tell you I'm committed to actually doing what I pin! I bought a yard of green felt to make the tree; it was actually more than I needed. $3.97 + $1.44 for Command...
