My internet holiday came to an end yesterday. It’s kind of nice to just walk away for a bit & take in real life. I love my internet life, but I love my off the computer life too. I did pop on every so often & when my nose wasn’t buried in the book I...
Oh Boy. What a weekend. It’s been a little dramatic around here, topped off with a midnight run to the Ft. Hood ER on our drive home from Dallas. My girl was wheezy and gasping and gave us a little scare. I don’t get rattled until I see my husband get worried, and he was...
It has come to my attention that what I thought was common knowledge really isn’t. Many people, savvy as they are, still don’t know how wonderful RSS feeds are. The RSS feed can streamline your efficiency when reading at the computer & staying in the know. So while I am without a camera this week,...
Maybe I am the only uncoordinated mother out there, but cleaning my girl’s booty has always been a challenge. From the time she was itty bitty & in the bathtub that went in the sink, I just couldn’t figure out the best way to hold her with one hand & hold/squeeze/squirt/set down the soap bottle...
Two years ago, during my corporate life, I earned a really big award. The reward for my work was a week long trip hopping around Germany, all expenses paid. My husband had just started his residency, so my plus one was my BFF. Let me tell you, you learn a lot about a person when...
It began with tears & it ended with tears. The happy kind. That morning we rushed in her room and sang her happy birthday. I don’t think she knew how to respond to her crazy parents, but she giggled and smiled as she normally does at 8am. I was flooded with emotion. Tears streaming down...
What? You wanted to see more pictures of my girl on her birthday? OK. :D Just in case you aren’t following me on Facebook & missed it, those little leggings are a super easy DIY project. Once Caroline started crawling, she got some nasty rug-burns from my less than stellar carpeting. I thought surely there...
I finally had the chance to get my family in front of one of the very few women I trust with a camera. Michele, of Pinkletoes Photography met up with us & we sweat it out early one morning. This was at the end of the shoot, but I LOVE these, poofy humidity stricken hair...
Hi! Hello! I am Shawna, the founder of Styleberry Blog. This creative corner of the internet has become a learning haven for moms and creatives, offering a warm and encouraging nudge to those who wish to be better and do better, but often don't know where to start. From Decorating to DIY to Diapers and Paleo-ish Dishes, I strive to make the complicated simple and empower women to take action beyond their personal comfort zone. I subscribe to the Shine Theory & so strongly believe that we shine when the women around us shine and mutual support—lifting up instead of tearing down--will always be the culture here. Are you in? I hope so! Beyond the computer, I run Styleberry Creativewhere I work with clients to create low fuss, high function spaces that are pretty and practical in San Antonio, Texas and beyond. I LOVE making a house a home. My own studs out renovation is almost complete and I am now back to working with clients. Please don't hesitate to drop me a line if you'd like to work together! I hope you’ll join me on this fun new adventure! Xo.
