check out gulp, it’s an amazing stop motion animation by sumo science at aardman! the filming broke a world record for the ‘largest stop-motion animation set’, with scenes stretching over 11,000 square feet. it was shot entirely on a nokia n8 camera phone, which is impressive as well. you can watch a making-of video here.

clementine worked great as a printing press! we wanted to stamp her hands and feet in her baby book and decided to make a few cards while the ink was wet. they turned out really cute!

clementine had some crib time with her blabla friends! aren’t they the cutest?

we made a vintage paint by numbers grid on a wall in our family room. we think it turned out great!

the two cutout paintings were made by stephen & shauna from something’s hiding in here. check out our post on vintage paint by numbers for more details on them.

we had a little gathering for my birthday, which also doubled as an introduction for those who hadn’t met clementine. it was a ton of fun!!!! we grilled chicago dogs and burgers!

our green peppers are finally ready! we have a ton currently growing in our garden, but these are the first ones big enough to eat. they are quite tasty!

we finally got our flor tiles for the finishing touches on clementine’s nursery! the rug really ties the room together.

our good friend debbie also loaned us this folk art painting by mose tolliver. it was recently included in the “we are folk” exhibit at the hudgens center where gub works. it’s perfect for the nursery and clem really loves it!

we also added a mirror over clem’s changing table so she can look at herself when she’s getting her diaper changed. we took a vintage frame and had a piece of glass cut for it and hung it angled down a bit, so she can easily see herself! she LOVES it!!!

to see how the nursery transformation came together, check out our previous nursery posts: week 1, week 2, week 3, week 4, week 5, week 6, week 7, week 8, week 9, week 10, week 11, week 12 and week 13!

gub had to go back to work today, so clementine and i had the day to ourselves. we went out on an adventure to the post office, target & kroger. we were grabbing flowers and candy to try and cheer gub up.

more importantly, perhaps, clem and i found matching headbands on our adventure!!!
