Wonder why I haven't blogged all week? Last Tuesday I had my second baby girl! Ivy Lynne Nelson. Now Jewell has a new sister. Visit our announcement site here.

Oooh, this stuff is so pretty! I wouldn't wear it to burp a baby, but what a perfect look for making yourself stand out at any social event (or your own wedding), subtle but impossible not to notice. Visit Glamour Junkie's shop here

:: Fabulous Free Font ::

Fontshop is handing out the regular weights of Museo, Museum Slab, and Museo Sans! Go get 'em (you'll need to make an account). I highly recommend getting on Fontshop's email list so you can find out when they have new fonts AND new free fonts. These are fonts that you normally have to buy (so they're not cruddy "free fonts" they are real fonts for free). Here are some beautiful new script fonts they showed off in the latest email:

Benjamin Duarri did these fantastic calligraphy illustrations and patterns for the children's book Goldilocks and the Three Bears by Lauren Child. The book is all photograph sets with real dolls, and it's adorable. Buy it on Amazon.
