little miss 5 year old

A few pictures from our recent shoot :)


Oh and the cake, I have gotten a lot of emails asking who made the cake up top.... I did! Aydin got a blythe doll for her bday and this was a great way to give it to her.
I think I'll post the recipe and how to next week.

new house, new room

So we've been in the new house a while now and after a trip to the east coast and two great birthday parties for the husband and child.... we are getting settled.

I thought I'd share pics of Aydi's new room.
It still needs some work... such as her new bed and another print I am going to hang up... but here it is so far.

I'd love your input.. should we keep the stripes on all 4 walls? hmmm

Keep in mind she asked for:
pink stripes, a forest and princesses. :)

as we celebrate Aydin's 3rd year of being in remission, I am still so very thankful for her health. What a blessing she is. In 2 more years we'll be able to say she's cancer free!

So much has changed since then. She was so little, so sick, so much a baby then. Soon she'll be 5. here's to lots and lots of healthy years to come <3
