HAPPY WEEKEND!



Hey everyone!  We hope you have a swell weekend, we sure are ready to enjoy a little time off together again.  We're so excited that in less than a week, we'll finally be on the road to Michigan to enjoy music, art, sustainability (and LOTS of hooping) at the Electric Forest Festival.  Until our departure, we'll be busy trying to round up lots of camping supplies and spending as much time with our little before she stays on a 5 day excursion at Grandma's house. ;)

A few things we think you should see this weekend:

• Where we'll be spending most of our time at EFF
• 21 pictures that will restore your faith in humanity
• How to make the most of the silly things that children do.
• It's almost too much cute to handle over at Tam's blog.
• Making sushi can be something fun for the kids too!
This gentleman's work is so ridiculously awesome it hurts.  So good.
• Any of my single friends, if you haven't read this column you're missing out!
• And finally, though you may have seen it- it's still one of my favorite posts from this girl.

Talk to you soon, friends!

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

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.
