Post-Baby Shower

ボーイズもおつかれさま!!

Diaper Cake!

My friend and I attempted our first 'diaper cake' for another friend's baby shower this upcoming weekend. It's a simple one, but filled with love!

Even the Mister was quite taken by it, in a rare moment of craft-inspired wonder. When told the name of the creation, inquired, Is there food in it?

Happy New Year

May we have peace in our hearts, if not on Earth.

2011

Things I am grateful they happened/existed in 2011:

Family, especially sis. Thank you for the best gift you could have ever, ever given me, M&D.

Boys, for needing me. (But also not really.)

Work.... Cumulative, challenging, compensated.

My marriage, for finally being able to start this magical, mystical business!

Facebook. Dude, it's still free?! BTW people, MZ was counting down in Tokyo (Two Rooms)  according to my sources. I love seeing my friends families and milestones on their albums.

Natural disasters, for what they showed us and gave us. Not so much for what took from us. That was like nothing I have ever, ever experienced before. And all I experienced first hand was the earthquake, subsequent (temporary) lack of communication and transportation, power shortages, and a sprinkle of radiation here and there. It was like nothing else.

Man. 2011.
