last weekend we made a last minute decision to take a trip to portland, oregon, where we shopped (ikea and h&m overload), visited family and ordered room service (which was worth every overpriced penny).

• top right: room service. no regrets. and, aaaaaaand, check out that tongue. kills me.


• middle left: fancy toilet options in our hotel room.

framed!

the last few weeks my mission was to get silvie's newborn pictures done by jen thompson and some recent shots up on the walls. mission accomplished.

i found these frames at our local goodwill. a few cans of spray paint and wah-lah.

and these are actually not frames, but pieces of an antique puzzle i found at my favorite antique mall, purchased by my step-mother for a baby shower gift, and painted to cover what was most likely lead paint. i'm really excited about these because i can easily interchange the photos as she grows.
