Always Something

There is always some kind of project going on around here. Always something!! And unfortunately, both Aaron and I tend to think of so many things we would like to do, they often overlap, causing just pure chaos! Currently, our formal dining room is undergoing some custom cabinetry changes. It is basically complete except for some final door adjustments. Aaron and I will then repaint the existing cranberry-colored accent wall to an antique blue to match the new counter top and the other existing wall colors in the entry way and throughout the living room, add hardware and a new chair and a half.  I am looking forward to the final finish and will post more pictures at that time as well.

We also had purchased a used bed frame for cheap a few months back, repainted and antiqued it for Brooklyn's room. One corner has not held up quite to our standards, so its headed to the curb. Aaron is now in the middle of building a new bed frame for her room (similar to the guest bed in our old house that he made). It will have storage compartments underneath and we will attach a padded headboard to it. Looks like mommy gets to go fabric shopping soon! 

Right now though, everything is still "under construction" as I have been sick for almost 2 weeks now and Aaron has just caught it from me. Yuck!

I Love The Way

I love the way Cayleigh greets everyone, including the dog, after she wakes up in the morning.
I love the way she calls every drink, no matter what kind, "wawa."
I love the way Brooklyn chooses from the index what story to read from her bible every night.
I love the way she gets frustrated when she can't get her shirt over her head.
I love the way Cayleigh still lets me hug and kiss all over her.
I love that she is a Momma's girl.
I love the way Brooklyn introduces herself to the kids at any play place or park we go to.
I love that she is a Daddy's girl.
I love the way Cayleigh has such a big smile.
I love the way she toots and refuses to say "excuse me" even though she knows how!
I love the way Brooklyn will correct you when she believes you're wrong.
I love the way she takes her plate to the sink after meals.

I LOVE so many of their little idiosyncrasies!!
It will soon be time to love even more! Baby Hein #3 will bring us more "I love the way....." in December!

Spring Pictures

We scheduled another session of pictures for the girls only, in hopes of capturing some smiles out of Cayleigh this time around!! A few totally captured our sweethearts, in every way! None of them both smiling together (of course!!), but we will work on that again another time.

Roommate Reunion







I had 2 roommates in college for all 4 years. We became best friends freshman year and have remained very close ever since. Kensley and I see each other often because we now live very close to one another, but Brittany lives in Houston, so we hadn't seen her in over a year. It was time for a girls trip!! We all met in Austin this past weekend to stay for a night. What a blast!! A little shopping, talking, napping (ha!), dinner out, drinks, Austin Pecan Festival and tons of laughs. It was a much needed reunion for us. I love these girls and am truly blessed to have happened upon rooming with them almost 10 years ago!!
