    Everything is ……. Sigh….. So beautiful.

  • Ashley December 2, 2014 at 7:45 pm

    Love this! Home looks gorgeous! Can I ask where you got the mini mugs from? My little one would love to sip hot cocoa out of one!

    • missy December 5, 2014 at 5:20 pm

      They’re from World Market! I believe they’re technically “espresso mugs” but they’re perfect for minis. They come stacked in a metal case with mini saucers, as well!

    Your “12 hour” posts are by far my favorite. It’s like a tiny peek into a life that, while I don’t personally share all that much in common with, I admire and love seeing. Hope to see more in the future!

  • Laura @ A Healthy Jalapeno December 2, 2014 at 8:04 pm

    So happy that you are starting to feel settled and hopefully able to relax a little more now with your boys and little bundle in your new home.

  • Heather December 2, 2014 at 8:54 pm

    • missy December 5, 2014 at 5:20 pm

      I couldn’t resist! They’re for humans but thought they’d be adorable for dog dishes. I found them last week at TJMaxx 🙂

    Hi Missy,

    I’ve been tuning into your blog now for almost two years and just had to finally tell you how much I love it! Your posts are so precious and challenge me to appreciate the little moments in my life. From choosing outfits for my trip to Europe to igniting a love of photography, I have been inspired endlessly by your posts. Please keep capturing your sweet life!

    xo,
    Adrie

    • Sarah December 3, 2014 at 3:00 pm

    OMG! The house is looking amazing. Where are the chairs from in the livingroom?

    • missy December 5, 2014 at 5:22 pm

      Chairs are antiques I found right before we moved. Luckily they survived the move without damage!

  • Beth December 5, 2014 at 10:21 pm

    I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again…your boys & soon to be are incredibly fortunate to have such beautiful documentation of their childhood. I feel a little sorry for their future wives, the bar will be high *wink*. Lol. Amazing job at mommyhood Missy.

  • Kennerly December 6, 2014 at 9:56 pm

    • missy February 10, 2015 at 10:13 pm

      Shelf is from Restoration Hardware. Dinnerware is from all over: some of it antiques, world market, and anthropologie (mainly). I’ve collected a lot of it over the years!
