Sorry for not blogging for a while, this summer has been crazy!! Shortly after my last blog, I found out I was expecting! Our next baby, another boy, will be here in February. :-)
On top of planning for a new little boy, my tutus have taken off! Currently in full swing for Halloween costumes, and anticipating Thanksgiving/Christmas outfits!
I am so thankful to all my friends and family, who have supported me. Thank you to all of my fans who have been patient with me during this crazy, crazy season!
With love,
Nicole Eileen

lots of busy times- how do you stay grounded?
So, I haven't blogged in a while, because I've been so busy with holidays, crafting(for others), taking care of my son(i.e., keeping him busy), spending time with family and friends, that I have barely had any time for me. I've realized that I've become too over stressed, and that I need to slow down.
So what do you do? What WORKS for you?
I wish a bath worked for me, or even an actual massage, but it doesn't. not unless it is more than 2 hours long.
I craft. but I haven't done anything in almost 2 weeks, because our "roommate"(read, MIL) moved out, and I've been trying to clean/reorganize my house to accommodate the extra room. Cleaning the space that was used, then moving all "baby" stuff in there, while we plan/try for baby #2. While being productive makes me feel good, I'm getting extra stress from my "terrible" 2 year old.
JOY.
So.... how do you relax? what do you do to "de-stress"?

Retail and weekends
Does anyone else work retail? Or restaurants? It seems the hardest days of the week to work are the weekends. Granted, there is a reason- everyone else is off. But that just means you have more traffic.
Same with parents with kids. I'm a (currently) SAHM, but my husband works retail. So, when everyone else has off, my hubby is working his hardest. Which means when there are plans for my son, I do them by myself.
Lets just say, I'm ready to have the work week back. :)

Hello Everyone!
Welcome to my blog about everyday life, style, and creativity. I am BY NO MEANS perfect, but I love sharing with others, in hopes of providing at least one person a bit of insight from my experience, and to share my creative designs as a business.
I cannot wait to welcome you into my life, my first true blog will come soon. :-)
With love,
Nicole Eileen
