mail day





Oh, was this just the pick up I needed today!  Sofia received her gorgeous bonnet from Greer at Typically Red and Mama treated herself to a new case (now my iPhone can go incognito while in Mexico.)  Usually if we order something online our shipments spread themselves out over the week, but today everything came at once!  I couldn't believe it.  I had posted a while ago on Facebook about how amazing the craftsmanship of the Typically Red knits were, but after seeing it in person I can truly vouch for the time and love put into every woven row.  I'm thinking I may have to pick up a neutral color to fit bebe's tiny head next winter... eep!

Is it obvious I had a bit of retail therapy a few weeks ago?

    I've bought Sunny two of Greer's bonnets! Don't you just love them! Sofia looks adorable in hers :) I'm all for retail therapy weeks! Esp when packages arrive on your doorstep... It's almost like unwrapping Christmas or Birthday pressies!

    Oh your baby girl in her bonnet is just so beautiful! Such a pretty colour on her. Yay to parcels arriving in a timely fashion. Then again...I like the long forgotten ones that appear and you aren't sure what it is until you open it. Hope your weekend is lovely :) x

    I've been looking at a similar iPhone case, with an Holga filter attached. Cute!

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.
