Babies and Blogs

So you may have noticed that today my blog has a swanky, swoon-worthy new style. I am SUPER in love with my own blog. But that's totally as it should be right?

Well it came from one of the most talented and beautiful people I know. (Of course I don't actually know her in person because we have only met in this virtual world but who's counting).

It's danielle burkleo ....

From the amazing blog ....take heart

Oh and she's also the momma of two sweet little boys....

With another on the way....

Whew! But if all that weren't enough to be busy but still beautiful....
They are also ADOPTING!

And they need help.
They need to raise some monies to bring their new baby home. So if you are interested here's how you can help. (And I really think you should)

You can contact danielle by email if you'd like her to design you something purdy for your blog or even Etsy. (She did them both for me! And I am seriously in love) Also it should be mentioned....this all happened in like 2 days. She is speedy. LOVE it. AND I didn't need her to make any changes.

OK so what's my other choice (if perhaps you already love your blog)....

How about a gorgeous wreath for your wall to wear from her amazing shop sugarmoney?
I really really really love mine. She can also do some amazing headbands.

Just sayin. She's a-mazing. I am so blessed to have her in my life. And she has been such an inspiration to me. Seriously holla at her if you need something or just want to help her precious family. Or just follow her blog and leave her some sweet words. That's such a blessing also.

Thank you Danielle. Chai sistas for life. I love you. Reals.

Blog Design

I have been forgetting to do this for WAY TOO LONG now and it's officially time that I thank Olivia Collins for my beautiful blog design!

 She did such a fantastic job working with me and all my wants and needs. We literally emailed back and forth at least 50 times over a month and I tried with all my heart to tell her kindly everything I wanted in my blog. She made SO many different designs for me until one day everything just clicked and I am SO HAPPY with the outcome.

If you are in need of a blog re-do or just want that nice "put together" feel you should check her out. She's still in high school and so beyond talented as a blog designer. You can check out her PORTFOLIO if you'd like to see other designs she's done or if you want to know more about her; read her cute blog Of Horsefeathers. Um ya did I mention that she's in high school? Oh, and that she also has an Etsy shop AND that she's not just a blogger-extraordinaire but she's also a published author? Yes you know.....all the things a teen should have accomplished. Myself? I think I was still worried about the cutest boy and whether or not I'd make captain of my dance team. But I digress. Here she is in all her cuteness:

Thanks dearly again Olivia! I just love it!
