August fun! Pictures, play time, and our playroom.

Our family photographer has become a friend and we met up for Molly Caroline's one year pictures last week. It is still the summer that she turned 1. ;) We chose to take them behind the prettiest little historic church in town. It felt like a secret garden. I was a little worried because the shoot was scheduled for only about an hour before Molly Caroline's usual bedtime but she did great. She laughed and ran around the entire time. We went to Moonspin after with our photographer and her husband. I can't wait to get the cd, but here are some I took. :)

Since we only have a few precious hours with Molly Caroline every evening we try to make the most of our time. We play, play, play after school. Then, We always sit down for supper together. After supper we try to get outside. Last night we knew we wanted to go on a walk but hated for her to just sit in her stroller. So we decides to push her in her cozy coupe around the neighborhood. She loved it! It was a little but more fun than a normal walk. Did I mention she likes baths in the tub again. Praise The Lord!

We've been working on her playroom slowly but surely. It's half painted Revere Pewter. I think our entire house will be painted in BM Historical colors soon...just like my parents! :) 

I'm going to try and sew the curtains this weekend. Possibly pillows too.

We've finished her chalkboard and are about finished with the boards that will hold her artwork. 

I need to order her table and bookshelves. 

I'm hoping my mom can find the prints that I had hanging in my room because they will match perfectly.

The color inspiration for the room is this print.

I also have my red desk in the corner. I want a new bulletin board and some hardware.

We will probably add a window seat and a kitchen (if Santa brings MC one) :) after Christmas.
