Imani's cover debut

I realized I have forgotten to mention here about Imani's 

Yellow Scene magazine cover debut!

It was a fun shoot at the museum of aviation, 

I like the "Amelia Earhart" empowered feeling of this image

 for young girls.

She's a cutie, and we are proud of her.

You bet we are saving like, a million copies of this thing:

who's most excited ?

her grandpa and granny Panama.

P.s  there are 2 more cute pics of her inside, so be sure to pick it up around town!

Some favorites

Do you have very favorite pictures of your little ones?

Mine change all the time, I just keep rediscovering ones 

I Love ♥

Happy tuesday

New life for an old bench

It has been a long winter, and no one knows this more then our bench,
our formerly nice wooden dark stained bench, that I inherited from my late grandfather, it had turned a dull shade of grey, and was weathered and dry, so I decided to give it a new life, and chose this citrine yellowish/green paint.
Its looking so fresh and cheerful now!
(thanks honey, since I didn't actually do a thing to make this change, and
 does that perhaps explain the look on your face here?)

baby M stands tall on it

Imani turns it into an impromptu coloring table

and new doll Becky takes a seat

As you can see we are all quite taken with it,

wishing you a peaceful 

and project free

Monday!

A couple more Valentine pictures

The always lovely Katie Day

 dropped by today with some more pics from our

"Valentine's photo shoot"

 in February that I had all but forgotten...

I think I have found some new favs:

Thank you Katie Day!

Always a pleasure,

P.S: what photo shoot will we be doing next?

I see summer meadows, balloons and a fun paint war

A girl can dream right?

Building forts

Imani is  OBESSED with building forts, nests, cozy little blanket covered spaces, etcc 

its cute like, the first couple times, 

and I definitely understand her need to build herself little private worlds apart from everyone else,

especially when you are the middle child and your home is only 

640 painfully small square feet.

However, these blanketed constructions just seem to be getting

bigger

and bigger.

Lucky me when they are outside.

Below: 

the pink playhouse was not enough, so she supplemented with a bench, my tablecloth and a matress.....

check out this one! she incorporated the stroller

view from inside,looks cozy

woah....

Do your kids do this too?

wishing you a great Saturday

At a crossroads

I have had a strong feeling that 2013 was going to bring some changes for the world, and our

little family too.

Right this very moment we are standing on the edge of life as we have known it 

changing for the better

It has been a very long time coming...

And we can't wait.

love you, bless us all,

and happy friday!

Baby M, rasta baby

This is baby M at 4 months old on our couch in Panama,

my what a little chub of love he was.

(still is!)
