Super-Granola-Austin-Mom

So our friend Kristy had her twin boys (Wes and Miles, above) a few months ago. I called her super mom for being by herself - no nanny - with two infants all day long, puming, feeding, pumping, changing diapers, etc. and still sane. She called herself "Super-Granola-Austin-Mom" for finally being able to tandem breast feed one day. Then she realized she hadn't bathed them in two days, one had oily hair and the other smelled like poop. I told her that basically solidifed her status as the super-granola-mom.

BTW, the Garden-themed shower we had was amazing! Here is a photo recap:

Spring Showers Bring Baby Greens

For my friends' baby(s) shower, I planted some pea seeds to give away to guests. I started a few weeks ago with some home-made newspaper pots. (Thanks Crestview neighbors for the recycled newspaper.)






They are sprouting nicely!

Two Peas in a Pod

When our friend texted us last year that she was expecting twins, Dax and I both (and separately) had the same reaction that may or may not have included an F-bomb. Yes, we are VERY happy for her. Just surprised! (Not to mention she has identical twin brothers, which happens to not be a genetic trait.)

Fast forward to 2011 and we are planning the baby(s) shower. Lucky for us, the couple's last name lends itself to some creative ideas. While brainstorming invites, I came up with:

1. Join us for a shower to help welcome the Baby Greens

2. The Green Family is in Bloom… Join us for a shower to help Kristy and David welcome their newest sprouts (Sort of took this from a Google Search)

3. KEEP AUSTIN GREEN - Join us for a shower to help Kristy and David welcome their newest sprouts

4. Spring showers bring Baby Greens! Let’s honor Kristy, David and their newest sprouts. (The winner)
