Little Runny Noses and a Fairy House

Hello all :) I'm in the middle of getting invitations and thank you notes out for my latest parties...it's so nice to take a break and see what you all are up too!

I wanted to introduce my girls, my heart, to you...Madeline Mae first because she is under the weather. She is only 10 months and is sad because she doen't understand why she feels so yucky.

Maddie Mae is such a good baby...very mild. She walks, claps, blows kisses, and shakes her head to "shiver me timbers!" I feel so lucky to have her, to have them both, but it is bittersweet sometimes because they are growing up too fast. I'm trying not to be sad about that and just enjoy the moment. When I look at Lillian (I'll introduce her in the next post), I feel like I blinked.

Since I can't work on my bee girl while my little munchkin is sick, I thought I'd post something I made over the summer. We visited family on the east coast and I decided that their garden needed a fairy house...or more so the fairies did! Can you find the doorbell? :) Lillian made the sign and the fairies were kind enough to write her a thank you note. It's hard to tell in the picture, but the white round thing above the door is a crystal doorknob! I'd like a crystal window too please! :)

Love your idea of painting a gate, but my house is a gray salt box with a red door and I just don't think it would go...

but maybe I can find a smallest gate to paint and hang on the wall in my work room...

They do grow up so very quickly. I lament the same things you do, but find each stage has new, magical moments...and the love just grows and grows.

I so enjoyed my visit to your blog.

Stop by mine if you get a chance.
