The Intersection of Design & Motherhood
Now that I’m home from Alt Summit, I can turn my attention to a (belated) birthday party for Oscar. There is no way in the world he would go for something this feminine, but I’m ga-ga anyway for this adorable Raggedy Ann Party.
How brilliant is this combination of real and paper flowers? Must. Copy.

Flora June Blair has arrived. We think we're so lucky to have a new baby in our home. Would you like to get to know her? You can read her birth story here. See the birth photos here. Check out her colorful newborn portraits here. And here are some photos of her looking like a serious old man.
Since I originally announced my pregnancy, readers have been sending in stories about birth and adoption, favorite memories and good advice. You can find them all here.
Also. If you're curious, here's what I looked like 30 weeks pregnant, and 8 1/2 months pregnant.

Gorgeous!
My daughter got her first Raggedy Ann this Christmas, and I still have my ol' girl from the 70's.
This idea is a definite must save!
Super cute. I loved Raggedy Ann when I was little. Hope you had a good time at the Summit – the skiing here was pretty epic this weekend!

I always love a blue & red color combination.
So cute! What a sweet birthday idea!
It is so cute! I still have my old Ragedy Ann too.
I have a little Ragedy Ann party pack in my etsy store if anyone's interested in this theme:
