us at SCHOOL

Hayley and I went to an abandonned school in Detroit that Rob and his brother Jesse record at. It was an elementary school. We thought it would be fun to shoot at.

Ryan's future playdate. Although Hayley and I have playdates already.

This is my good friend Hayley Jean. She is due 7 days after me. SO techincally she is 31 weeks.
She and Rob are having a boy and his name will be Calvin. It has been very nice to be pregnant with such a close friend.  

week 32

31 Weeks

Jim took these, because I was getting frustrated. And YES, this is pretty much what I wear EVERYDAY.

There I am with about 8 weeks left to go. Getting big!!

ryan's ROOM

This cabinet has been in the family for generations, my father painted it green upon my request. It will serve as Ryan's dresser. The rocking chair belong to Jim's mother, the butterfly pillow was made by me in high school in Ms. Henderson's class, it is a Batik.

There are many baskets in the cabinet to keep her things organized. My sister got me that card right before I found out I was pregnant and thought the world was ending. The pink item is a vintage hat and sweater worn and given to me by a dear friend, SJD.

And baby makes 4

This is the Escalante family. Jhonny and Christina are expecting their second son Santino "Sonny". Maximo is their oldest son who can not wait to teach his little brother the ways of the world

And a baby makes three.

Yep..It's happening. Me and Jim will be parents.  Here is a picture of our little sunshine at 10.5 weeks. Our little leprechaun is due March 10, 2012. We are both very excited. Wish us luck.

Elliot and Owen

What can I say other than, they are best! And I love love being an aunt to them, even though, Elliot thinks Uncle Jim is funnier than me. Must be a boy thing.

Owen Slater

This is my youngest newphew Owen, he is about 9 months! He is sitting up, rolling, and crawling. He loves to smile all the time. He seems to always be eating or getting his iron for the day. He is in love with his cool big brother, Elliot. 

Maddox

This is Maddox, and yes he was born a little player. This kids personality was strong from the moment he was born. And yes that is thanks to his wonderful and strong parents, Ezra and Brianna.

baby CLOTHES

The are some onsies I made for a Friend at work who recently had a baby boy named; Asher. Well she actually had Asher in March. Asher's mothers name happened to be Brooke too.
