Illustrating Children

I went to the Beehive Bazaar, which was awesome! Tons of great items from local artists. My favorite items were the illustrations by Sarah Jane. I really wanted to buy one for the nursery, but not knowing if I'm having a boy or girl, I decided to wait. Luckily she sells her prints on Etsy (for when I do find out).

Happy Mother's Day


For an early Mother's Day present, Chris and I went to Salt Lake to shop for baby gear and eat at Z'Tejas. At Anthropologie, Chris picked out this fabulous apron for me...I was hesitant, but he insisted. I just love it! He says it reminds him of "Bewitched." Chris never fails to impress me with thoughtful and fun gifts. What a great hubby!

'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone' by J.K. Rowling

I haven't been reading much lately, since my number one priority is sleep. But I did find a little time for a light and entertaining book, and now I have joined the ranks of Harry Potter Freaks (sorry to all you freaks out there). After years of being harassed for not reading the series (by education teachers, peers and students) I finally finished book number one. I actually started Sorcerer's Stone years ago, but life just got too busy and I didn't think the book was that great, so I put it down. For some bizarre reason, Chris and I started watching all the movies a couple of months ago, and I found I was just a tad bit hooked. I look forward to the next book, Chamber of Secrets and I am really excited for the movie, Half-Blood Prince, to come out in November...which may be my last hurrah before baby comes.
