My sweet baby Charlie is two months old now. She loves eating, being held while we dance to music, the birdies that twirl around on her swing, and eating....especially eating. In fact, right now she is working on some stinky pants. Soon she will be hungry again. :o) She often falls asleep right after she is done making stinky pants...all that work really wears her out!

I was so surprised the other day to receive a package from one of my best friends from high school. Enclosed were these lovely bibs and burp cloths. They are all embroidered with her name in different fonts, so pretty! Laura was always one of the most thoughtful people. Every act of kindness counts. Her thoughtfulness made me cry. Receiving unexpected letters/cards/gifts in the mail is absolutely one of my favorite things!!!

I have some exciting news to share! I have found an incredible photographer who is going to mentor me!!! I am going to make a trip to L.A. to spend some time with her. I really love her work and I feel like this opportunity is an answer to prayer! She is really a brilliant photographer and there is so much to be learned from her. You can check her out here. She has been so kind and encouraging and I am so thankful to have this chance!

For now, I am trying to get moved in and organized. I have more clothes than any two women should have. Brooklyn has so many toys, many of which she doesn't play with. So at any given time you can find me on my way to goodwill, getting rid of more stuff. Today has been a quiet day of laundry and Gilmore Girls. I am washing all of our bedding in white lilac tide and I am even ironing our sheets. I love Gilmore Girls. I only recently started watching it, but now I think I need the dvds.

So Charlotte's nodding off. She must be done with the making of the stinky pants. You wouldn't believe the stink this girl is capable of...
