A LITTLE ON THE LATELY




Who's been incredibly busy this holiday season?  I know I can't be alone. It's been kinda nuts for our whole family these past few weeks of December.  I can't believe I only have 13 something days to get all of my shopping done!  Did the beginning of December absolutely fly by or what?  Lately, I've been wishing I had a bigger budget for presents this year, but I'll be the first to tell you that babies take all that "extra" income you never knew you had.  The great thing about not really having the money this year is, I've been able to kick up my creativity for handmade things and goodies!  I've been working on some notecard designs for friends and family as well as our first ever De La Rosa Christmas cards with attached Year In Review.  Are you excited?  I'm excited!

By the way, if you want a card from us this year, email me your address so I can send one out!

In other news- is it just me or does it seem like a lot of the blogosphere is getting pregnant.  Again!
here, here, here, I could go on... but lets just say there are a lot. I will make sure to be extra careful because we need to wait a few years.  Or five.  Or six...

    Ugh I totally know what you. Between working 50 hours, freelance projects, and random acts of house wifery, I barely get a chance to do anything "fun". I heavily rely on weekends, that's for sure.

bump : week 22

I've said it before, but if I could pack up and move my entire family straight into the By The Barkers studio space, I would. Absolute heaven! As for our little one, he or she has been giving me strong, swift kicks - especially around bed time.  Waves and ripples dance across my belly as I lay in bed waiting, watching.  I'll admit, it's been difficult for Erick and I since we've decided to keep things a surprise as far as the gender.  We were both so used to the feeling of knowing with Sofia that it's made this pregnancy a completely unique experience.  My intuition keeps swaying back and forth wondering if this little one is a boy or girl, and judging by the way that I look, feel and eat, my best guess is that we have another little lady on the way. (Though, if you ask Sofia, she's already told us she thinks baby is a "bruh-der")  !!! Mamas out there, was your intuition right? Any tell-tale signs or...

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.
