BabyPo Blankets!

Okay, so I finally succumbed to my friends' pressure, and have decided to start selling my minky blankets!! My mom helped me come up with the name, "BabyPo Blankets". It was a fairly easy name choice actually, since I called my babies,"Baby Po", when I was pregnant. And of course I only started making these for them, and then myself, and then our friends, nieces and nephews! This has actually been a really fun experience so far, though I've only done one group order of customs. I do, however,have a second order coming up on September 5th! And then I'll "sew" on from there! (: 

Our Little "Inch Worm"

It's official.. Rylee is not yet crawling, but she is definitely "inching" her way around the house to grab things of interest! She is, of course, still a bit rolly, but I LOVE how her little tushy goes so high up in the air so she can push herself closer and REEEEEEACH for her goal! Just wanted to share this little video of her after her, yes, worm rattle! (;

Lil' Roo's 6 Month Photoshoot!

As I'd posted before, we subject our children to yet ANOTHER photoshoot. It was extremely important to me, that we got Rylee's six month photos done. (: Here are just a few to show you some fun! Cause I mean really, what is more fun than a little rolly-polly baby?

Big Girl Panties! (;

Today, Camy dressed herself. Man was she proud! She grabbed a diaper, unsnapped it, set it down and after putting on her dress [which took a few minute alone, though she refused any help!], looked at it and decided to put her bloomers on without it! Well, if I haven't seen a for sure sign to start potty training, I'd say that's a pretty darn good one! (; Now, we did try about two months ago with Camy, and she was so interested. That is until she realized she actually HAD to sit on the potty, verses just playing on and off as she saw fit.. Needless to say, that ended with some serious tantrums! 

Sneak Peek to Family Photos!

Yes, of course, being the photograph fanatic that I am, we had family photos done at the very end of July! Rylee was six months, and we thought it was time for her to enter, once again, into the modeling world! (; We were able to get individuals of each of the girls, a family shot, and of course, focus on our little 'Roo since it was all for her after all! We worked with the lovely Kara Barrett, and I fell in love her with buoyant personality, and her darling little girls! 

Paetin's First Week of School!

I have to admit, I was a BIT nervous about Paetin's first day of school. I'm not sure why, I don't usually get emotional about things like this.. and I am glad to say, not a tear was shed, nor did I feel the need to shed one. It was just. . . . weird. It was a different schedule all around, our days have started earlier, naps are taken earlier [and more frequent by Rylee] and overall, everything changed, not just Paetin being gone for seven hours a day. Her first day had me nervous, just cause I wasn't sure how she would handle the new authority, or the classroom setting in general. Well . . I guess the worrying was for nothing! She had a GREAT first day, with gym class included! Of course Paetin is social, and easy with other people, but I was really nervous about her ability to follow instructions given by Miss Zakarian, or other faculty. She was so excited to go back the next day, it melted my heart to see her so thouroughly enjoying her new life adventure. (:

A Polansky Wedding! (:

Nothing melts my heart more, than watching my little girls, and their daddy, love each other sooo much! <3 We are just finishing breakfast [Paetin had been playing dress-up ALL morning] and Paetin walks over to me, asks to borrow my ring, and tells me she is going to need a prince so that she can be a princess and get married today. Oh. My. Goodness. She promptly looks at her daddy and says,"Daddy, will you dress up and be my prince so we can kiss and get married?" **HEART WRENCHING!**

Meeting Miss Zakarian!

Tonight was, "Meet Your Teacher Night" at Paetin's school! She was absolutely thrilled all day, and just couldn't wait another minute to go! When we told her it was time to go, she was rushing us out the door! (: After walking the extremely HOT 7 minutes it took us to get to her school, Paetin walked right up and met her new principal. We headed to the gym to check out the class lists, meat the PTA leaders, and then headed over to her new classroom! After looking around at the tables Paetin found her name and welcome package. And let's face it, there is barely a shy bone in Paetin's body, she befriend a boy, Kayden [who sits are her table group], promptly, and introduced herself to Miss Zakarian all on her own.
