I liked my instagram picture so much I decided to do one with my fancy camera. ‘Cause there’s been a lot of this going on around here lately. These are some of the few months we can actually enjoy outside here in HOT South Texas & we are living it up! We’re getting lots of fresh air right now & if feels so nice.

This is one of my favorite weeks of the year…as my first real gardening project (success!) is in bloom. Meet my porch. Inspired by all those issues of Cottage Living (RIP) that I can’t part with. If I could bottle this up & smell it forever I would. Oh, I love Confederate Jasmine. & It is bloomin’ like mad right now. Hope it’s as lovely outside in your neck of the woods!

Erica - Hi! I just wanted to say I am SO glad I found your site! I actually found it via a pin for your weight loss after pregnancy post. I was so sad to read that some commenters were ugly about your post. I am two months postpartum, and it really inspired me to stop making excuses and just lose this weight. I have spent hours just going back through your old posts on babies, etc.! So stay who you are- some of us appreciate it!

I tied it with Jute as it grew! Just wound & wound in itself every so often & it has covered beautifully!

Mahina - We are doing just that this weekend. We are also going to The Great Cloth Diaper Change because of you! Hopefully my husband will agree to let us finally make the switch to cloth!
