This is what baking looks like at our house.
This is their favorite part.
This is what our living room looked like for the better part of a week. Sheets to protect the couch, bowls for getting sick in, hand sanitizer, Gatorade and tissues on the coffee table.
This is the little town we made when I decided that, sick or not, the TV had to be turned off!!
This is how we like to spend Friday afternoons.
This is the adorable vintage play ironing board and iron set I found for her at an antique store. She happily ironed, folded and re-ironed, and re-folded her blankets all day. I know she's never seen her own mother so enthusiastically ironing ;)
This is how he ate his cereal this morning
This is the month our baby is due
Yes, I am happily pregnant with baby number four!

Congratulations! Happy news!
Loved this peak into your world! We had the sheet thing going on here too, only it was for the mom.
C.O.N.G.R.A.T.U.L.A.T.I.O.N.S.!!!!! on baby # 4!!!!
Oh my goodness! First I was swooning over the egg crate! Then I admired the road taped to the rug ( I must do!) but now I'm full of joy over your announcement!
SO excited for you and happy at your news.
I have an iron like that one (minus the cord) from my childhood.
hi! love the road taped on the rug, will have to remember that, and congratulations on such wonderful news!--karen
i really enjoyed the pictures, April! makes me wish we could come visit!! and congratulations again- what fun news!!
HUGE happy congrats! :)
laila was soo fascinated with the picture of eliza and the ironing board, she said wistfully, "i want to have one like that!"
i am also so impressed with how you let your kids paint on fridays. i admit, i really hate getting that mess out. it's so mean of me. :(
i also noticed your very cool real egg container. i have never seen anything like that.
besides the obvious best part of this post, my second favorite is the framed cat word in the 1st picture.
xoxo
Oh wow, how wonderful! :D Congratulations! :D
Congratulations to you =) Love the pics, for sure and hope that, the little guy is well recovered!
Congratulations, that is exciting news. And I too was admiring the egg carton and the ironing board. I AM NOT jealous of the sheet and "sick" bowl. Hope you are feeling ok. Happy Thanksgiving.
i'm sooo happy for you! so very exciting this new is!
YAY! So happy for you all. Excited to see the "sewing nesting" too.
Hope all feel better soon. A sweet time of life in your household. Love the little town with tape roads, I will have to remember that! The ironing maiden is so cute. Yup, we try not to iron around here, but do so only as needed. Miss my sweet MIL who said it was her favorite indoor sport and used to ask for ironing when she visited.
THIS is wonderful and precious every little bit.. especially that little bit right at the end!
so so happy for you sweet aprile~ xo
So cute! The baking reminds me when I was a child I used to help my mom make the cookies, apple crumble and pudding, chocolate dreams and other stuffs looking back it's hard to believe I did all that being that young lol
can't believe I forgot to comment here. I always love these posts by you, and what a great ending this one has. I am very excited for you. CANNOT wait to see pics of the dear child. Are you finding out the gender, and will you be sharing it?
Congratulations! That is so exciting!! Love the taped town in place of TV. You are so creative.
When I saw that first pic and the caption, I thought how tidy cooking looks at your house! I am the messiest cook in the world, and baking only looks like that before I open ANYTHING!
I love to iron! I used to take in ironing for a little extra money. Not many folks care much for the "ironed look" nowadays. I just wish I had a space that my board could just stay out for use, and that my closets were large enough that I could iron all at once so things would be ready when I need them!
That last piece is such precious news!! Congratulations! My Dannye Reigh is a June baby - it's a great month!
Congrats to you!! Exciting times for your family. My oldest was born in June and that was my favorite month to have a baby. :) Hope you're feeling well!
congratulations april!!! i am so excited about your new little person. it's your first baby since we've crossed paths...we're doing a pregnancy together!
yes. i know how corny and weird that sounds. my enthusiasm is making it hard to think of a better way to say how precious it is when my friends are growing and having babies.
THIS is a fun post. and the neatest news!
congrats. i'm jealous :)
SO, SOOOO excited for you April!!! Congratulations!!!
