We are going to have a baby! It’s been hard to not tell everyone, but we wanted to wait until I was in the second trimester. It’s amazingly exciting even while not feeling well. 🙂 We are thrilled and so excited to tell the world. I’m due the first week of December so we’ll have a little Christmas baby. My birthday is December 11th and history tells us that the women in our family go late with their babies. Let’s hope we don’t end up sharing a birthday. I wouldn’t mind at all, but that would be a over week overdue!

We won’t be finding out the gender, it’s going to be a surprise! So you’ll find out the gender and the name in December.

I can’t tell you how amazed we are with life. We have the honor to work together and serve our amazing clients. Something we are grateful for every day. Now our family is starting and we are often afraid that it’s all just too perfect. We are so humbled and amazed at what God has given us. Thank you all for your love and support we’ll be needing it over the next year!

Instead of showing you and ultrasound, which I admit are far more exciting to us than to you, 🙂 I’m just putting a silhouette image of a baby. We’ll be decorating the nursery with silhouettes as I’m obsessed with them. So thought putting one in the post would be fitting.

    that’s so exciting!!!!! congratulations you too… you’ll be wonderful parents. i don’t know if you all had heard yet, but we’re expecting as well… and any day now! he’s due june 9th! visiting atlanta will be even more fun now that the babe will have a friend!!!

 OK, everyone knows my obsession over paper. So, I felt the need to share this with you. We received a wedding invitation in the mail a few days back for a wedding we’ll be documenting at the Old Edwards Inn in Highlands, North Carolina in June. Ryan and Jessica have done an amazing job having a cohesive theme to their wedding. We know all the plans they have put in place for this great day and seeing the invitation now shows how well they are using it to set the stage for their guests. Do you remember their Save The Date? Mirabel Press here in Atlanta did both of them. Be sure to check them out for your needs. It was just as personal and unique. Enjoy looking through their creativity and using it for inspiring ideas for your own wedding!

 

Their envelope style invitation.

Their letterpress fonts perfectly display their personalities.

Their RSVP leaves ample space for guests to write a sweet note as they return the RSVP. I think it would be great to keep them all in a book.

    I see a business venture for you in the future Katie, hmmmm…..

    They are gorgeous. And your love for stationary, especially the unique, is evident. I am sure this wedding will be amazing.

I thought I’d combine my Katie’s favorite with a little hint to all the Dads out there. Sunday is Mother’s Day (THIS Sunday). So here is a site on Etsy that you can probably still get a beautiful card from, but I would recommend it being with breakfast in bed and a lovely gift. You can go here to the Etsy Store at this link.
