Just what we needed

Spontaneous last-minute fishing trips on the coast… they make a person whole again. We’ve been so busy with our house (moving day is coming up soon!), soccer for our kids, and life that we just needed some rejuvenation. The beach does that for us ♥ The cool weather and break from Bakersfield heat was very much needed as well!

Newborn Crochet Hats Photo Props | FREE SHIPPING ♥

Maternity leave well spent! I’m not really use to sitting back and relaxing, I’m a go-go-go kind of person. With the limitations of this pregnancy and being so very immobile so early on I’ve had to occupy my time somehow! I miss photography and my amazing clients so much that I’ve come to tears over it a few times! Soon enough though :) These babies are growing great and will be here in a few short weeks to meet their mommy and daddy in person. I can’t believe that special moment is so close already!

So this is what I’ve done to occupy my time! I started with clearing my yarn stash (it was bad… really bad… verge of yarn hoarding, omg.) Then when that was used up, I started buying more yummy yarns and fell head over heals with Winding the Skien, where you can find GORGEOUS handspun yarn every Monday night! I’m sorry if you’re a yarn-isseur and I’ve just enabled a new addiction! You wont be sorry though, it’s run your fingers through yumminess.

So back to the hats, yeah?! I’ve obviously spent a lot of time on my butt (haha!) because I’ve sold over 50 hats now! Thank you so much to everyone who’s bought one or more ♥ With your hat purchases, you’re helping me buy the things I need to prepare my office/studio space for my clients when I come back to work! Did I say thank you yet?! SUPER THANKS for all your love, seriously!

I have a great bunch of hats all sized for newborns ready to ship in my shop now :) Some are selling out fast, but there are still plenty to fall in love with! Need newborn goodies? Click on the photo below and go shopping<3
