I found it. A polish to match my summer watermelon.
Essie’s Watermelon. Matches my melon slice so good, I almost bit my finger. Got camoflauged there for a minute.
And I’m not the only one who’s diggin’ it.
Looks good on her too.
And speakin’ of lookin’ good, look who was stylin’ her stuff at the beach last night.
It was the first time I put her in the sand, and as soon as I laid my little kitten’s tummy to that beach, she was all smiles…
I took the kids to Fort Myers Beach for something different and with the hopes of getting some pictures for Brett for Father’s Day but–and I’m going to put this nicely–no one wanted to be there. It was hot and a little out of the way and, although I haven’t gone through everything yet, I’m pretty sure in every picture at least one person’s crying or purposefully not smiling. Lainey did enjoy some brother time though.
And Nella got to feel what it’s like to have her tummy to the sand, so it wasn’t a total wash.

Finding more summer inspiration out and about this week…
I just love when new seasons come in. I thought it was all about summer–and it is–but I’ll do this all over again come fall. I’ll pine over russets and golds and stalk Pier One for its spiced apple scents. The blog will blow up with seasonal overstimulation then too–like pumpkins and apples and my mom’s pie crust. But, for right now…it’s all summer, Baby. Warm, sunny, colorful summer that promises much more to come.
Love how her little feet were thinkin’ about dippin’ in the mud in the first pic…and by the second pic, she’d decided to go all in, Baby. And smilin’.
This weekend will bring some speical time with my girls…
More enchanting thunder storms and more delicious summer.
…and some lovely ramblings about the man I love on Sunday.
Stay tuned.
And while I’m obsessed with Ingrid Michaelson, let me just say how proud I am of my super talented niece who sang at her school’s talent show a couple weeks ago here. Savannah, you sing just as beautifully as you are, inside and out! xoxo
Love Nella in the sand! So beautiful.
LOVE the pic with Nella smiling on the beach, she has her mommy’s love of it! I love Ingrid Michaelson too, we used one of her songs at our wedding!
Look at those cute little painted piggies on Nella! How cute is that!! 🙂 I *love* that you paint her itty bitty nails. I was just at GAP today..and I have to agree that the jellies-color spectrum just screams Summer..and of course! Buy me! So, I did! 🙂 Have a great weekend with you fab hubby and beautiful kids!
~Deanna
love the nail polish and all the great pictures!!! Also, your niece is super talented.. Talent totally runs in the family.
Love those beach pictures of Nella in the sand. How peaceful and relaxed she looks at the beach! Fun polish on her toes also!!
Love Nella on the beach! You and Lainey painting is too cute!
Glad you found some watermelon for your nails!
My daughter is about high on nail polish right now. She has been watching youtube videos on how to do tricks for her nails. She is gearing up for a fireworks look now!
:o)
I’m loving the rolls on Nella’s arms! That’s the way babies are SUPPOSED to look. 🙂
Just so you know…i am ADDICTED to your blog!!!
It is seriously a highlight of my day when you have something posted.
It’s WONDERFUL.
Christy in Ontario Canada.
Totally high-tailing it to the drug-store RIGHT now to score some Watermelon Essie, I must have!!
Happy happy summer weekend!!
Oh my goodness! : ) Baby on beach on tummy…. So flipping sweet. I can’t even take it : )
Oh my gosh, Nella in the sand with that adorable headband? And the painted toes? Just too much cuteness to stand!
I’m in love with your baby 🙂 Both of your children are beautiful and you take such gorgeous photos of them. Love the photos of Nella in the sand! I just talked about you on my family blog, you have such a great eye!
Those little beach pics are to DIE FOR!!!!!! My favorite yet!!! Little Diva Nella!!!
I love it!!!
oh my goodness…i have never seen anything that adorable..that nella on the beach is making every cell in my body smile!!!!!!! seriously, i can’t take how happy those pictures make me..it is how i feel when my girl does something that makes me all warm and fuzzy!
take a bow on those photos because i don’t think it gets any better than that!!♥
Gosh, everytime I see a Nella pic that I think just can’t possibly be topped, low & behold the next entry is posted and there she is. On her tummy in the sand (as mind my thinks “oh how wonderful for sensory development!”).
How neat Nella loved the sand so much! I love her face when you are “airplane-ing” her! You have two beautiful girls!!
Love, love, love Nella’s headbands! So precious! That pucker-lip smile she’s doing in the photo on your feet is TOO sweet!
That picture of Nella on your feet looking at you? OH MY STINKIN BEAUTIFUL LIPS. Pursed ever so perfectly.
Wish I was there to kiss them. LOVE the cool headband too. She is gorgeous!
And Lainey cracks me up with her feet in the mud..your a good mama. When I see mud here and I see my girls staring at it, I’m like “NO WAY, don’t even THINK about it” ha!
That Nella is a beach beauty. I love Lainey in the mud puddles..she’s such a cutie-pie.
So glad that you found the nail polish….
I knew Essie made a fabulous shade! I think I’ll paint my toes in honor or your great find!
Love Nella in the sand…and that headband!!!!
Where did you get it?
I love SUMMER!!!
gosh i love each of your posts. they are so filled with happiness they sometimes make me tear up. thanks, kelle. i look forward to each one.
SuperNELLA! Love that pic of her going for an airplane ride. She is so precious – those lips slay me!! 🙂
holy cute
Been reading since Nella was born, but I don’t usually comment (I guess I am shy, lol) but I have to tell you, I have 2 boys (my littlest little Sam, is about 3 weeks younger than Nella) and I have said I am done, but those pictures of her little toes with the polish are making me think I must try for a girl…or paint Sam’s toe nails red. LOL
Love those picture of Nella in the sand so cute. Glad Lainey enjoyed her brother time. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, can’t wait to hear how you celebrated it.
Shari H. Alberta, Canada
This new post was such a fun little surprise on my slow Friday night at home! Beautiful Nella makes me smile 🙂
That precious baby girl…I have three grandsons, no granddaughters…but have a standing order for a girl. Little Nella would fit the bill…your pics are awesome. What camera do you use?
I just smile every time I visit your blog. And red baby toenails…does it get any better?! L.O.V.E. it! <3
Smile, smiles, smiles.(BIG ones)…that’s all I have to say about the most adorable baby girl I have ever seen soaking up the tickles of the sandy beach (very much worth the trip Kelle) -oh my goodness-super scrumptious she is!!! Love the itsy bitsy bikini you have on her!!
Happy weekend to you Kelle-have a great day celebrating Brett!!
Monique
Oh my GOD those piggy toes! I love them! She seeps love and happiness.
I am going to be a big downer here and ask people to do a search on the chemical, Dibutyl phthalate (DBP). It is commonly used in nail polish. Essie, I believe, still includes it in their polish. There are some safer alternatives without the chemical, especially great for kids.
Love Nella in the sad just beautiful!! PLease tell your niece she has an AMAZING voice! I wish I could have heard her better over the cheers and clapping! She was just wonderful!!!
DBP has been removed from many polishes but others such as toluene may still be present.
I *knew* you’d find watermelon nail polish!!!! Too cool! 🙂
Nope – not a total wash – she’s just too cute with her belly in the sand!
Nella in the sand–I am dying over the a-dor-a-ble little rolls on her arms! My gorgeous little granddaughter Calla (who also has Ds & is a couple wks older than Nella) is about Nella’s size and I can’t keep my hands off her cute, cute, cute little rolls!
Can’t believe Nella stayed still enough for you to paint her toenails! My daughter was just commenting yesterday that she’s wanting to paint Calla’s toe, but I think she’ll have to be asleep!
Love all your photos of Lainey w/ her adorable clothes and totally “little girliness”!!
Also loved the shot of Nella howling in her big brother’s arms!
If I even thought of holding up my 6 mo old Gracie like you are with Nella in those last pics…..well, let’s just say I’d be covered in spit up. 🙂 Just by thinking of doing it 🙂
Wonderful post and I still think the shot of the kids all together is wonderful. the crying? The avoiding the camera? That is just the kind of reality their dad will love (and recognize) 🙂 And I love the colors of their clothes. Perfect!
Your pictures are as inspiring as your words…filled with such a beautiful~positive~energy…love them!
I agree, Savannah is very talented…I love Ingrid Michaelson too…Happy Father’s Day weekend to Poppa and Brett. C:

I know it’s not easy to paint those teeny tiny toenails (I have two nieces who I dote on) and you did a fabulous job. Hope you find just one photo that is either perfect or perfectly imperfect for your hubby. Enjoy your weekend!
1) LOVE the picture of of little Nella’s watermelon toes on the grass. How cute is that?!
2) LOVE the beach/sand pictures… she is so stinkin adorable! Is that a bikini she is wearing… oh my lands that is adorable!
3) LOVE LOVE LOVE the picture of Nella in the air like an airplane. She melts my heart!
She is the most adroable little Nella Bean in the whole wide world!
Awesome nail polish… i wanna get my toes done that color this weekend!! :o)
ALSO i absolutely LOVE Nella’s flower headbands! those are simply ADORABLE and so is she of course – sand pictures are too cute!
I absolutely love the pictures of Nella in the sand. She is getting big so fast. It’s amazing and beautiful to see that little smile of hers. 🙂
I stalk your blog every day, hoping there’s a new post. I just can’t get enough of your words and your pictures!
SSSQQQUUEEEAALLL!
nella as a bathing beauty!
just when i didn’t think she could get any frickin cuter!
love the pics, love the polish, love the blog. love it all!
OMG, that’s just too much! The pictures of Nella are just divine. I need to get some new nailpolish…
OMGOSH THOSE LIPS!!!!! That picture of you airplaning Nella is GORGEOUS!!! Of course I love her Sports Illustrated shoot too, lol and Miss Lainey is as beautiful as ever. Love them, love you and don’t ever stop sharing your life with us. What would I read every other night if you did that???
Oh how could I have forgotten Poppa…
Poppa, thank you for sharing your wisdom, the beauty you see in the everyday and for always sharing with Kelle’s blog family your wonderful words. HAPPY POPPA DAY TO YOU THIS SUNDAY!!

I love the pic of Nella in the sand, smiling. She is such a delicious baby. I also love the one of Lainey putting her feet in the mud. I have one like that of my cousins and then one of them splashing around.

Well after many many months of following you I decided to go ahead and make your day! 😉 I found your blog during my pregnancy and I instantly felt your heartache and your love for life. I lost my baby boy (stillborn) and the pain will never go away but I’ve learned to take it day by day. I’m at the point where you once were, trying to put my emotions into words but it’s heart wrenching to relive those moments. Reading your blog makes it so much easier. I wish more people in the world were like you…You deliver continuous joy to all who encounters your inspiring words and photographs!
You have a beautiful heart and family! I love the picture of Nella in the sand with the arm rolls, adorable!! Have a good weekend Kelle!
OH.MY.GOSH!! Nella in the sand is so adorable. Those have to be some of my most favorite pictures that you’ve posted here!!! You are one lucky girl; beautiful girls and beautiful beaches!
Kelle – Kudos on Scoring the exact Watermelon polish! And I too am in love with Ingrid Michaelson’s music. Thanks to Pandora, I’m hearing new music from like-minded musicians like Eva Cassidy and Matt Nathanson. Gotta love Pandora to keep good vibes going.
Here’s to wishing your assistant photographer a wonderful father’s day.
And Poppa, here’s wishing you a wonderful father’s day.
-Jennifer
Awww, Nella’s toes are so tiny and cute!
I love the video of Savannah too! She has a great voice! I love that all the kids in the crowd were cheering her on too! 🙂
AGH! Missed your other post in the business…will have to go check it out and comment later. But for this one…oh, beautiful. You never cease to amaze me with your joy and love of the small things. All the beautiful little nooks and crannies that make up life. It’s so amazing to just watch as this amazing blog expands and gets better and better with each post, if that’s even possible, considering that it was already incredible to begin with. I love the nail polish, and I love that first one of Lainey with her brothers, just looking up at them, loving and adoring them in her sweet little face. I can’t thank you enough for sharing all of the beauty you have everyday.
But thank you. Because it matters. 🙂
Much love,
–Hannah
After I commented I went back and read the others and Oops I forgot Poppa :(. Happy Father’s Day to one of the best Poppa’s in the world (I call my dad Dad but my girls call him Poppa so I have to say one of, lol) also I personally don’t think usind normal nail polish once in a while hurts but since I ALWAYS have mygirls nails painted I started buying Piggy Paint. It has no chemicals and no smell. Both my girls suck their thumbs and I don’t worry at all.
Every time I read your blog my heart melts a little. I love looking at your lovely family, and your beautiful smiling face. You have been such an inspiration to me to keep taking more and more and more pictures. I am having so much fun!! I still haven’t learned how to do the self portrait, but it will happen!! Have a fun weekend. <3
I have fallen in love with your girls….When I think there will not be a cuter picture….here comes more…You are amazing
Gosh darn it, don’t we have enough to worry about without having to Google the chemicals in nail polish!??
I will be looking for Piggy Polish now tho, I have a thumb-sucker and now I will worry 😉
Love the pic of all 4 kids, prob my fav!
I love the pictures of Nella in the sand. You can just tell she’s LOVING it! Love her little chubby arms too…I just wanna nibble on them! 🙂
these are beautiful bells! nella at the beach…like her sister, she loves it!!!!
i’m thinkin about all the ioc’s we will be doing!!!
xoxox
If you don’t think the picture of the 4 kids is priceless for your husband…I disagree. It’s beautiful and wonderful. And the pictures of Nella on the beach are priceless. Thanks so much for sharing!
Just watched your niece on youtube! She was amazing!!!! Somebody should send her video into the Ellen show – Ellen loves stuff like that!
Sorry the father’s day shoot didn’t result in a perfect pic (can’t believe that happens to you Kelle!), but any pic I’ve seen of the four kids together is so nice, what a lovely family they make. Nella looks like she’s having a great time, esp in pic 3! Looks like she’s going to be a beach baby..
Lainey really made the chicness of that blue and red cozzie shine, and I love that she ended up combining it with up to the knees mud!!
I know you will, but have a great weekend!
I love Nella’s infectious smile. Looks like she had a blast in the sand!!! I love the watermelon nail polish on her cute little piggies!!! I love Lainey in the mud…so much fun!!!
OK, the attitude-spoiled-perfect-family-photo-shoot is just cosmic justice, my dear. Yes, there were times when you and your siblings also sabotaged our plans…with something more toxic than explosives–with unexpressionless faces, scowls and disinterest. And that arsenal is still used by our children. So, I smile knowing the fulfilment you experience what we did years ago! Those planned posed moments–regardless of the coordinated outfits and great setting–cannot compare to the relaxed and serendipitous shots you seem to land every day. Yes, the shot the other day of Austyn snuggling with Nella is far more priceless. I know it was a Fathers Day gift in the making…but I know Brett. He has his gifts…four of them…and he is very, very happy. Now there’s a happy fathers day. I love you, and have long forgotten your seldom-seen stinky attitude on perfect picture outings.
Oh, do I agree with your dad. I know I was a stinker on those photo outings and my 2 teens are paying me back. I think it will always be.
Favorite pic today? Nella on her belly smiling with pure delight in the newly discovered sand. Delicious. (I think that you should do a photo book of DS babies as a gift of sorts to the DS community and to show the rest of the world what a gift those little treasures are!)
Happy Father’s Day to Brett and Poppa!
Just to repeat the previous posts…Nella in the sand is the cutest ever!! I can see those pics in her First Year book already:-) I’m already anxious for your Fathers Day Post…ooohhh it’s gunna be good!! Have a fabulous weekend. Happy Fathers Day to Brett and Poppa too!!
Kelle everything in this blog is absolutely fabulous! You, your beautiful family, your words, optimism, spirit, I could just go on and on. This place literally makes my world better, because I’m always reminded to enjoy the small things 🙂
Oh and Nella’s toes and the beach pics, oh my *swoon* You are such a talented photographer! btw I’m lovin me some Ingrid too!
Dear Kelle,
Sorry to be the Debbie Downer, but please be careful with the nail polish on your pretty little baby… or on yourself for that matter. It’s so toxic, I’m happy you didn’t put it on her finger nails, I’m hoping she doesn’t like sucking her toes 😉
Your pictures are gorgeous, I wish I could go to the beach now…
I don’t think Nella sucks her toes…but I must confess…I do.
I swear, the second photo of our Nellabean on the beach should have the caption: “Move it–you’re blockin’ my rays!”
Dear Nella,
Thank you, sweet little one, for brightening my day several times a week. Today I smiled because I love your adorable little painted toes, tummy time in the sand, and, did I spy a little bunny tail on your onesie?! omg, LOVE!!
🙂
Love Lainey’s swimsuit;) and I just made a few of those headbands for my Kate. It looks so cute on Nella. I love, love the beach tummy photo.
holy baby cuteness. i think i just died. those chubby painted piggies and baby belly bare on the sand. i can hardly take it.
Nella’s bikini is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.. Every time I see her beautiful face tears come to my eyes.. my 9 month old son recognizes her too!
I LOVE the photos of Nella, you capture her so beautifully. =) Have a great weekend.
I can see it now………there’s going to be a SERIOUS shortage of Essie Watermelon nail polish!
LOVE LOVE LOVE those piggy toes in the grass! Want a post size of that one, for sure! And Nella on the beach – I am absolutely, positively, crazy for that girl – I mean she is so darn stinkin cute I can hardly stand it!
You’ve inspired me. Thank you! I love your blog and your girls are the most adorable girls in the world! 🙂
I could eat those chubby painted piggies right off my screen. Total love!!!
You make me excited to take my little to the beach for the first time this summer!
Savannah is great! It bugs me when people clap along though, too loud.
I posted an award for your blog on my site! I love everything about your blog! Thanks so much for sharing!

Have you caught this story?
http://abcnews.go.com/WN/Broadcast/student-autism-class-salutatorian-delivers-high-school-graduation/story?id=10933858
I found it totally inspirational! So glad you found watermelon polish!
P.S. Ella has the red, white, & blue suit that Lainey has on. I feel so cool!
Oh my God . . . I laughed out loud (all by myself) when I saw the adorable picture of Nella in the sand! Is she wearing a bikini? I can’t put into words how she is so cute, cute, cute! Enjoy Father’s Day! 🙂
Oh, the cuteness!!!
I have to say, the pictures of Nella in the sand are PROBABLY my favorite Nella pictures (and that is SAYING something!).
She is so beautiful Kelle. I can’t even see the down syndrome when I look at her. I just see sweet Nella, with all of the secrets of life inside those stunning eyes.
And your niece has a beautiful voice and great taste in music! 🙂
Happy weekend!
(Oh, and ps: I cannot WAIT to read your blog this fall. Fall festivities are my absolute favorite, and I just know you’ll capture all of that beauty and excitement!)
LOVE Nella’s little red melon toes in the grass, and her gorgeous be-blossomed self on the sand. Tell me, do those really stay on her head?
Beautiful of Nella in the sand…I almost want to hang it up in my house on my wall…and let people come by and oooh and ahhh over it …but I won’t. My Diego just loves the sand, too, and runs his hands through it mounding it up like a bulldozer.
And you have some kind of good arm to hold that camera steady and balance her in airplane.
happy summer!
Susan
I adore the photos of Nella laying on the sand. So beautiful 🙂
I have to admit that I am so jealous of your ability to find the good in everything! Each time you post a new entry it inspires me to try and be more laid back and to not let the struggles of life get on top of me. I haven’t reached that point yet but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that someday soon I will!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful life! 🙂
Nella baby looks so fascinated by the sand! I think you have a beach baby on your hands…
I adore you. I adore Nella, Lainey, and Brett. Thank you for sharing your family. I don’t even remember who told me about you, but I’ve been reading for several months, and I think you’re fantastic.
Nella in the sand has to be THE most adorable picture yet! I love reading your blog to get inspired to take pictures of my own two girls. Nella just jumps off the page into my heart. The trip to the beach was worth it just for the photos. Thanks so much for sharing.
I dont post much because I know you get so many 🙂 but I have to tell you how beautiful you and your family are…. Just makes me smile when I see your post….Have a blessed Fathers day weekend..
After reading your post last night, I painted my nails too. (: I’m pretty sure it’s watermelon. Also, I’ve played the new Ingrid Michaelson song about one hundred times now. Cheers!

There is nothing cuter than Nella’s watermelon colored piggies! Voted for you today. 🙂 xo. Your summer looks dreamy and delightful so far. Wish we had some of your weather!

love love love those photos of nella! i’m loving watching her grow…even though i’ve never met her, she holds a special place in my heart :o)
i absolutey love that you paint her little piggies!!
oh and i voted and will keep voting…lainey is ADORABLE!!!! and of course…you are beautiful!
xo
Beautiful and wonderful!!! BTW, I just voted for you on Oprah’s search for Your Own Show!!! I cant wait for you to Rock that out as well!!! Hugs&Luvs
I’ve never noticed your wedding ring before, it is stunning! But now that I think about it, I started reading your blog right after you had Nella so you might not have been wearing it since I just recently discovered many pregnant women have to take their rings off. Either way, it’s lovely! And I love the pictures of Nella in the sand!
Hi Kelle!
Cracking up at Poppa’s comments. Toe sucker indeed=) And your past moments as a rather difficult Ford model! Your dad is too funny! He is as classic as mine, the love of my life!!
Nella is dreamy as usual! I LOVED the socks she was wearing in her saucer in your last post. You are the “guru” of fun, fashion finds=)
I want more photos, fun, color, water, polish, sand, flowers, music, party favors, books, picnics, parties, popsicles and children EVERY time I visit your blog!!
But shhhh…don’t tell my husband. We are both turning 50 next year, and have 2 teenage daughters, and he’s not diggin’ the more children thing=)
Your blog is too fun for words…..
Susan from Boston
the pictures of nella in the sand just made my evening that much happier. thank you.
what delight babies have–and perhaps, just maybe, nella will experience a bit of the gift of never totally losing the magic of childhood. and that’s not a bad thing at all, ’cause that extra little gene certainly can give lots of special gifts.
By far my favorite photos of the girls!! I love the picture of you blowing on Nellas polish 🙂 thanks for the heart smile

My mission this week: To take a picture of my little with his toes in the grass like little Nella. Everyone loves the sand picture, as do I, but the one in the grass of her little toes TOOK MY BREATHE AWAY! Amazing…art….. 🙂
Happy Father’s day to the wonderful Daddy’s in your life!
-Jenny in Iowa
I love the pics of Nella on the beach! How precious were those! And I need to get me some of that watermelon nail polish…thanks for the tip!
You made me do it. You made me go out and buy WATERMELON nail polish. My girls and I are gonna look FABULOUS!!!!
What’s this about voting for Kelle on Oprah? I say let’s get Kelle on Oprah!
I think I have the YOUNGEST blog reader here. I was just doing Halle’s nails (9 years old) and didn’t even MENTION your blog and the watermelon nails, and she goes “you know that GIRL that has cute Nella, well SHE has her nails painted just like this and she’s holding watermelon”. I just about died. She got into my fav’s and was looking at your pictures. How cute is that? But she doesn’t want just watermelon colored nails, she wants me to use my paint pens and rim her nails with green, with black dots for the seeds!!!! She is such a diva!!!
LOVE Nella’s beach pics – precious.
So glad you found your watermelon polish – summer looks purely delightful there!
Enjoy! 🙂
nella on the beach. swoon!
Happy Fathers Day to Poppa and Brett!
On my old blog, I put all the ‘failed’ picture attempts up and then showed the ‘perfect’ photo that came after threatening to make them stay in their rooms for the remainder of the day. The great thing is…to this day we love the ‘failed’ attempts best!
Now, I tell them that for every good shot I get, they get to do a funny shot! The funny shots are always a blast!
Nella and Lainey are beautiful and I love their painted piggies! I see that beach picture on your wall soon, Nella is about the most precious beach baby I’ve ever seen!
Kathryn (same one, different user account—I have 3 *don’t ask me why*
Oh my. Your family is so beautiful. I love following your blog. Your positive outlook on life is so contagious, and your girls are so lovely.
“Nail polish is toxic”. Wow, I’d love to be that kid’s mom. Lighten up huh…everything is “bad” for you today. Live a little!
Oh Kelle, I love the photo’s of Nella laying on her tummy in the sand. Breath taking. canvas worthy for sure. Visiting your blog makes me happy.
it posted before I was ready. You’re life is dreamy and inspiring to many as it speaks to our souls and makes us enjoy the small things with you. Best Regards!!!
I am painting my nails watermelon red in your honor. 😉 Yey!
ACK! I died. Just DIED when I saw the picture of Nella in the sand!!! Amazing little person. I want to eat her up!
Mags
love the nail polish, NELLA in her bikini in the sand and savannah singing was amazing!
i’m an ingrid michaelson fan too!
Love Nella’s bright red piggies in that green green grass. De-Lish.
I just wanted to tell you how much I LOVE your blog! It’s so inspiring!
I don’t have kids, but I was already finding it hard to juggle my photography, home life, keeping up with my kitties and puppy, and still have time for me.
Seeing this blog, made me go out and get some watermelon Essie and have a night of pampering. Thanks for the reminder to enjoy the little things, and not to forget about ME!
You are so beautiful! same with both your girls! love.
Hi Kelle,
Your blog is fabulous, as always. I’ve been checking it every day since I discovered it. I just ordered this very summery dog collar for my ridiculously cute French Bulldog, Stellaluna. It reminded me of you. Maybe Latte “needs” it, too. 🙂
