teeny tiny ziplocs

I just got off the phone with my bestie and she shared a wonderful little gem with me: Postcards from Yo Mama. If you have yet to discover this blog, go read it. Now. Hilarity will follow. This one is probably my favorite so far - an email sent by someone's loving mother:

"Backstory: I got a prescription for the same anxiety meds my mom is on but I can’t afford to buy them right now. She sent some with my dad when he visited… without him knowing.

There is a big green tub full of your stuff that dad is bringing. When you open it there will be the fox fur coat on top. Inside the pocket is that medication. I put it into one of those teeny tiny ziplocs that extra bottons come in on new clothes. I taped it inside that pocket so it wouldn’t fly out. Please put somewhere safe so kitties don’t get it, since it’s not in a bottle, and dad doesn’t see it. i don’t need a lecture.Maybe you can take that coat out to hang in your room and remove it there. Anway, use sparingly as I don’t know when i can get a new prescription. (Hopefully soon with dad home from work!) I think i put 10 there . Remember, they are 1 mg so you only need 1/2. You shouldn’t take it unless you can get at least 7 or 8 hours of sleep because they are in your system for a while and you will feel groggy next day. You really should try benadryl first.Love, mommy"

And just because I don't believe in posting without a photo of some kind (minus the self-loathing one from Monday) I am currently crushing on these badboys by Gerard Yosca, found via Charm & Chain. Oh how I drool...

Moooore babies...

I've been geeking over some baby announcements for a few days and I wanted to post the first round. Because I have no life and all of my pilates clients have canceled or disappeared this week, I have had plenty of free time to become an offical master of Illustrator's beloved Pen too. And have also been gifted a mean case of carpal tunnel. Dawn's family chooses an animal to represent all of kiddos, so if you were wondering about the cute little lion, our Davis is going to be king of the jungle. (And no, the babies in the photos are not little Davis - he hasn't arrived yet and he's going to be way cuter than these little fellas anyway.) Dawn & Randall, enjoy!

Tendu.

Overwhelmed. All I want to do is pointe my feet.




And to think I considered myself over pink tights.

Little Chloe

These are my latest creations for one of my very favorite Pilates clients. Her adorable daughter is about to turn 2 and she was looking for an invite to compliment her modern french-themed lime, black and white nursery. Enjoy!
