Hooded towel backpack

How cute and functional are these little hooded towel backpacks?! And just in time for all this super hot weather!
We are taking a little family trip to LA to play at the beach and Disneyland and I think I'll make one of these for my sister's two girls that will be there with us as well as one for my little man. Anything to lesson the amount I have to carry!For full instructions on making these cuties visit the very creative blog The Train to Crazy found here.

Introducing Parker Michael Willmore: Unsencored

About 476 pictures have been sent to family via cell phone pics but those just aren't very good quality and Parker is just too cute to not see in quality detail!
WARNING: Some of these pics may not be for the faint of heart! (or those close to labor and delivery themselves :) Babies are born naked and NOT clean.

After walking and walking and walking with few contractions to show for it, I suddenly started have inconsistent contractions on July 5th and toward the afternoon they started coming more frequently and more intense. We went to the hospital and I was dilated to a 4 and 80% effaced (Babies come at 10 dilated and 100% effaced). They monitored me for an hour and sure nuff! I was definitely in labor. So I was transferred to my delivery room where they gave me a
blessed epideral and 4 hours later Parker was born kicking and screaming.

Parker's zombie picture...LOVE it!

Rewind to the 4th of July

We had a blast at the freedom festival...

...Petting 10 foot snakes...

...Playing with vender goods...
...learning how colonials sharpened sticks...
...and squinting for the camera :)
