Steed means Horse

We took some Steed family pictures back in August, thought I would share a few. 

Babies will be babies

Lets be honest if you have read my blog.....at all, you will have gotten the gist that Bridget, like any other baby, likes to put stuff in her mouth. 

More often than not it's something that's less than appetizing. 

Maybe she's lacking some iron in her diet.

My-stagram

I thought I would post a few recent pictures from my instagram. 

Yes, 99% of them are of my child. The girl is stinking hilarious.

The Talented Mr. Markus

I have been working on trying to build a website for my "doulary" (that's what Trevor calls it) & HypnoBirthing business.

It's really hard when you have no website building skills.

(Luckily I have other skills like bow hunting and nun chucks.)

Hopefully I will have it launched soon. 

As I work on it I have had some pretty amazing people step up and help me out. Like Trevor's cousin, Tyler. He is an artist and fantastic graphic designer, he made my logo.

Isn't it beautiful?? 

Makes you just feel good, doesn't it? 

Makes you just want to be pregnant, doesn't it?

What do you think of my business name? 

April in Waiting? 

(It's because I assist [wait on] wonderful pregnant women and make them feel like Queens). smiley face

Tyler is a pretty talented guy, he just did the illustrations for an adult childrens book.

(I have your attention now, yeah? You are thinking, what in the world is an adult childrens book?

 

It is hilarious and so clever!

You will seriously want to buy it.

Luckily you can.

Go to http://www.whatifliberals.com/ 

It's perfect especially during this intense election time, we need a little light-hearted-ness that is totally spot-on.

Tyler has sent us a few of the nursery rhymes in the book and we have just busted up laughing. unfortunately?

I am getting my copy in a few days and I can't wait!!!

You will also want to bookmark their page because from what I understand they will be publishing more books.

Bridget is ONE

 

I felt a little like a failure of a mother because I didn't plan an elaborate birthday party.

You know, a pinterest party, that are basically the equivalent to a wedding reception in grandiose but for a 1-year-old.

I really wanted to too. 

But let's be honest, I almost didn't plan a party at all. 

Not to mention the fact that it has taken me two entire weeks to blog about it. 

 Luckily Bridget has some pretty amazing grandmas that insisted on a celebration. 

So she ended up having TWO PARTIES.

  And boy did she get spoiled.

I ended up taking mostly video and hardly any pictures of her birthday so please enjoy. It's pretty much the stinking cutest movie you ever did see.

Little note: It may have happened that the only thing we got her for her birthday that wasn't from craigslist completely terrified her. I guess we'll wrap it up and try again at Christmas.

p.s. sorry about the shaky camera, I was laughing so hard.
