Finally! A picture of all of my kids together! I haven’t gotten a shot of them together since I did the pics for our xmas cards last year. I’ve been dying to get a shot worthy enough to be printed out HUGE so that I could display it proudly on my living room wall. This is it! And the other two below are hung up right next to this one. I’ve been trying to redo my house, hopefully I can post a few pics of it soon. Figures, I forgot to take “before” shots.
You would not believe how much work this shot was. And the main culprit giving me the trouble was the littlest monster. Man, I’ve got my hands full with that one. I thought the curly haired cutie was going to make me loose it. But little Lukas has topped them all! I guess his big bros taught him well…and he took it to a whole new level! LOL!

Niko is a total sweetheart and I’m about to loose him to kindergarten…sniff sniff. He is such a lovable kid and my little helper. He’s pretty nervous to go to school so that’s making it harder on me…yeah, I said “me”! The only time I’ve been away from him is when I had his brothers or when he sleeps over at his aunt’s house. Ok, so I’m definitely the one having a harder time with him starting school! You can’t blame me, I haven’t sent one of my kids off to kindergarten in about 9 years…yup that means my daughter is going into 8th grade! High school next year…help!

I love this shot of Julian! It’s his classic pouty face. I’d say he looks like this in 90% of the pics I’ve taken of him. He just likes to be, how should I put this…difficult! Pretty much he wants to do the opposite of what you want him to do (doesn’t sound like me at all!
. So, I need to remember that if I want him to smile I need to tell him not to!

We threw a carnival themed birthday party for your two year old over 4th of July weekend. I was so excited how well everything came together. I wish that I was better at planning ahead though. Most of the decorations were made the morning of the party. I was actually still sewing together the crape paper 5 minutes before we walked out the door. And to give myself a little credit I did start everything the week before. But I got stumped on what I wanted to make and my best ideals just seem to always come at the last minute. So I guess no matter how far ahead of time I start I’ll still be working up to the deadline!
I just love how the main table turned out!
I made all of the birthday hats from scrapbook paper.
I loved his little birthday hat!

I put white and yellow mini marshmallows on top of the cupcakes to look like popcorn.
Some of the little carnival accents are from the scrapbooking section at JoAnn’s.

I found the vintage looking clowns and balloons on Etsy.
The kids loved helping themselves to all of the candy!
All of the glass candy jars are from the dollar store.

I was hard at work last week on patterns! I actually got two finished in one week and listed on Etsy, I was amazed. They are only available in toddler sizes at the moment. But if you HAVE to have them in infants or girls just drop me a line and maybe you can motivate me to get the other sizes completed.
Shop here: Romeo&Mae
The first one is the Piper Mighty Ruffle Pants. These pants are so fun I’m about to make some in my size!

And the Hazel Apron Skirt.

Finally, I’ve added the Mia Ruffle Booty Bloomers pattern to my shop! I started on the pattern almost two months ago and just got around to finishing it. I’ve been dying to use these gorgeous photos that Kristy Lane took for me of her darling little girl. Thanks again Kristy!
