<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Soooo... it's been almost a year since I've written on our blog. Crazy! An update is long overdue like, how we had a baby and all! I know! It's been so long. Porter is the sweetest babe and him and Bentley have been keeping me SO busy #understatement. In the meantime, you can stay updated with us on <a href="https://instagram.com/hellolittlescout/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> but hopefully I'll be able to update our blog soon. I'll get on it, I promise ;) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">But first, I wanted to share the news that my sweet sister in law Julie and her family are in the process of adoption. Yay! Adoption can take such a long time to happen so I just wanted to get the word out for her family. You can find more about Julie and their amazing family <a href="http://adoption.com/profiles/julieearnest-3521" target="_blank">here</a>. We are so lucky to know them, they are the sweetest family in the world!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We are absolutely thrilled to bring to you girls such an amazing company. We are just swooning over all of her products and they are too good not to be shared!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Meet Jennifer! She is the creator and mastermind behind the darling brand Jennifer Ann. Jennifer is not only super model gorgeous, she is also the sweetest girl you will ever meet!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Leggings are so in for our littles right now and one thing that we absolutely love about Jennifer Ann is the individuality each item has! I mean how many people are we going to see wearing "Bentley" leggings?! When we received our package I was absolutely blown away at how well made everything was. Everything is made from the most comfy stretchy fabric that is perfect for playing or relaxing.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Bentley wears his leggings on a weekly basis (ok, maybe daily) we just love them. They are so comfy that I don't ever feel like I have to change him especially when I put him down for a nap which is a huge pet peeve for me. And, I will never have to worry about our kids fighting over them because clearly, they are Bentley's ;). They are perfect.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Can I just say how hard it is to get pictures of a toddler? I am so grateful we took so many pictures of Bentley when he was little but now... we're lucky to not get a blurry picture! I always try to be sneaky and do it when he's not paying attention. It doesn't always work though! Bentley was pretty surprised when my phone's camera could flip around at us! Love that little smile :)</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I cannot believe how long it's been since we have done a post. What is happening!? Well... I do have a good excuse, I promise! If you haven't heard the news already...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> To say that we're completely thrilled would be the biggest understatement ever. We are so excited for Bentley to be a big brother! With the combination of that, our moccs, switching Bentley from 2 to 1 naps (more on that later) and Brady finishing up his last semester in school... it's been a crazy few months. I will be sharing all of the details and missed moments soon :)</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">A couple of months ago we were approached by the incredibly talented photographer</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">to do a family photo session with her. It was an offer we could not resist and what a dream it turned out to be! Would you believe it if I told you that these are first professional pictures that we've had taken of us since we got married? Crazy, I know! Obviously, we have no lack of pictures but it was so nice to just have someone else take them who knows exactly what they're doing. I was really worried about how these would turn out since Bentley literally had no nap that day and he was </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>not</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> in any mood for pictures once we arrived. We pretty much had fruit snacks on hand during every photo but somehow, Christy managed to capture the most perfect moments of us just being, us. The location was perfect. The lighting was perfect. Christy was beyond perfect! I was about 9 weeks pregnant when these were taken and we will forever cherish these pictures as being our first as a </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>"family of four"</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Christmas is only 6 days away and we </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>just</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> started wrapping! We're the worst! Better late than never, right?! I am loving this Christmas so much already. Bentley will be 18 months on the 26th and he is just mesmerized by the Christmas spirit! Aren't we all? This christmas is going to be so much fun we can hardly wait. Bentley has never really ever unwrapped a gift.... that speaks for itself! We chose to go with neutral craft wrapping paper and bright tags for a pop.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We finally made it to Utah for our Christmas Break and we are having so much fun being with family and friends! We are also freezing.... but that's another story for another day. :) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Christmas is just around the corner (1 week to be exact) and to say that we are excited would be the understatement of the century. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>We are ecstatic!</b></span></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Bentley is getting to be such a fun age. His personality is really starting to show and we are having the best time ever. Last week I posted a picture on Instagram of Bentley checking out his stocking. He knew exactly which one of his! He got those smart genes from dad ;) Oh, and don't mind my blurry Bentley pictures from now on. We have officially entered "that stage" where Bentley can't sit still for longer than 2 seconds. Always keeping me on my toes this one!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I made our stockings last Christmas. It was Bentley's 1st Christmas and up until then we had never invested in stockings. I know, I'm not sure what we were thinking! I really wanted something that was going to be uniform for our family, but still personalized and individual for each member! I took my idea to my mom and we went to work. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I am going to apologize now that my directions may be very confusing!

It's always nice to have another person to talk my ideas out to. Love her!</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">My mom had a stocking on hand and I liked the shape so all I did was flip it inside out and traced around it. If you do not have a stocking already, google "stocking outline" and there are tons of options available for you to print off and trace. You will need to cut out two stocking shapes (front & back) for 1 stocking. I also lined my stockings with muslin so you will need to do the same with your muslin fabric. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">The reason I chose Upholstery Burlap was because it is so thick. I didn't want our stockings to fall apart after 1 year and fray like regular burlap tends to do. I wanted these babies to last for a looong time!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Top stitch the pleated fabric to the top edge of the stocking. Finally, you will need to pin and stitch the back of the pleats to the back of the stocking. The picture below is the completed boy stocking from the back side.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Cut 2 strips of muslin 5" by the width of the fabric. I chose to use 2 ruffles at the top of my girl stockings. This will give you enough ruffled fabric for 1 stocking (if you choose to do 2 ruffles).</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> Using a sewing machine basting stitch or alternately a needle and thread by hand, run a basting stitch down the center of your tube of fabric. Gently gather your fabric pulling the basting thread to create your ruffles.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"> </span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Once you have ruffled the length of your fabric, pin and adjust along the top edge of your stocking. Attach the ruffle to the stocking by stitching on the center basting stitch using that as a guide.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">You may need to hand stitch the 2nd ruffle down. I was able to do it on my sewing machine but it was pretty awkward with it being so far down the stocking! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I cut a piece of muslin to 8.5" x 11". I attached that piece of muslin to a Full Label sheet (it is sticky on one side) and ran the muslin through the printer with our names! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">You will want to do a test page on a blank piece of paper before you actually print your names on your muslin. Once I had my names printed on the muslin, I cut my name patches to approximately 1.5" x 4". Finally, you will need to hand stitch the name patches to the stocking! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Sundays are by far our favorite day of the week. It's our day to just relax and enjoy our time together. Lately, Brady has been studying a ton which leaves Bentley and I lots of time to explore! Gotta burn that energy somehow right? I am so grateful we live in an area that is so lush! And it doesn't hurt that it's like 70 degrees and beautiful every single day :) Bentley is sporting a bow tie from <a href="http://Etsy.com/shop/thesplendidbow" target="_blank">The Splendid Bow</a></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Thanksgiving is just around the corner and this year, we will be hosting our very first feast. Yikes! Anyone have any words of advice for me?! I'll be honest I'm a little nervous, but way more excited to do it at our home. We will be dressing up our table with lots of gold and burlap. My fall favorites :). This morning I am sharing the full tutorial for our burlap utensil holders over on the amazing blog <a href="http://sweetlittlepeanut.com/" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;">Sweet Little Peanut</span></a>! Your company will think you spent hours making these but they are so easy! Check back for lots more Thanksgiving goodies to come. Next week I will be sharing what we're doing especially for the kiddos :) Happy Thursday ladies!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">If there's one thing you don't know about my husband Brady, he is a chocoholic! If I said I wasn't either, well I'd be completely lying. We love chocolate in our house! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This year I decided to go with a "chocolate" theme. Brady requested double chocolate cupcakes with none other than chocolate icing! We had company leaving as well as coming into town on the day of Brady's birthday so everything was very intimate. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">One of my most fond memories growing up was story time. I think every child can agree that it is a favorite! I can still vividly remember those books I read as a child, how they made me feel, and how much I loved them. It's a tradition that I want my children to remember as well. Now having Bentley, we have been stocking up on some of our classic favorites (think Brown Bear and The Rainbow Fish) as well as new favorites like Fairy Birds!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Fairy Birds is a brand new series created by these 2 gorgeous twins. I am pretty sure they need to adopt me. Immediately! Heidi and Heather were inspired to write a children's book series that was not only fun and interactive, but that also teaches children about service and kindness! That is when Fairy Birds was created. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Fairy Birds is all about becoming a Fairy Godmother and learning the secret ways to become one by learning six different Fairy Godmother traits. The first book of the series teaches children how to do small acts of kindness in an adventurous, fun and delightful way. Along with the book is these darling wings which can be found in their <a href="http://www.fairybirds.com/#!shop/cen" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;">shop</span></a>. Each colored feather is earned when they complete the six different Fairy Godmother traits. We are loving</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> the message this book teaches to children!</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This book is causing a movement with children to do simple acts of kindness throughout their own homes! This 'giving' movement the book is creating can delightfully be seen with this Fairy Birds video below where it shows how little readers turn into Fairy Birds themselves by doing small acts of kindness in and around their own homes. You can also check out their blog dedicated to sharing ideas on giving and spotlighting little readers that become Fairy Birds too by giving in and around their homes!</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Good morning ladies! It has been far too long :) I'm blaming my recent M.I.A on three things:</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">1. We got </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Disneyland</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> passes! All day, every day. No explanation necessary.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2. We've had family/friends/been out of town (going to Disney of course) for almost the past month. I swear we are always on the go, which is great and super fun! But it does make it hard to get almost anything done. + I take more pictures than I'll ever be able to blog about. I'll get to them one day, hopefully.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2. If you follow us on <a href="http://instagram.com/hellolittlescout" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;">Instagram</span></a>, I posted a little sneak peak of what has</span> <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">really</span></b> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">been keeping me preoccupied! These little babies have been taking almost every second of my free time lately. But, I'm okay with that. I mean really, how cute can you get!? I am seriously </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>dying</b></span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">at all of the cute colors and kind of wishing I could make some for myself. Now there's an idea, right!? :) Everything is coming together so great. I probably won't be ready to sell these for another couple of weeks but I will keep you ladies posted. I will keep you ladies posted on all the juicy details but I will tell you this- we will be selling these for one of the cheapest prices I've seen. Trust me, you won't want to miss this!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Currently, my dad is in town and we're off to the beach this morning. Seriously, I could get used to beach days in October :) Happy Monday!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Good morning ladies! First things first, for those of you who are interested, I am giving away a sidebar add for the month of November for Katie and her family who are trying to adopt. You can find out more information {<a href="http://kateandkuby.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;">here</span></a>}. As if you need another beach outing to read about. Sorry guys, we really took advantage of our summer! :) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">There was that one time we were invited to a private beach in Laguna for the day.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We love our beach trips! Especially when it involves family! Brady's sister Julie and her family were in town for almost the whole summer and it was great to see them so much. We had so much fun with them :) And that view? Priceless!</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We have been anxiously awaiting October this year. I don't ever remember being this excited for fall!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> I can't decide whether it's the cooler temps or the holidays that will be here in no time. Either way, I'm so excited! I've been trying to decide what to do for our Halloween costumes this year. Every year I always put it off until the last minute, but this year I'm determined to change! We'll see what we throw together :)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I can't wait to give you girls an update on Bentley, I can't believe how long it's been! I'm a major slacker. Seriously you guys, Bentley is already 15 months and is getting so big and is doing so much, it's unreal! I'll be honest though, I'm really loving the stage that we are in right now. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Bentley is talking/babbling </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>non stop</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">, almost walking (not sure that's a good thing), and sleeps a solid 12.5 hours at night. I mean really, how much better can it get?! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">On a typical morning I wake up around 7:30, clean up a bit and go through my e-mails before I get Bentley up and see if there are any "must have" deals. I swear, I can never get enough of these daily deals! I just found out about little jiji and was completely touched by their cause.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">little jiji is run by 3 sisters who wanted to make a difference once they found out </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">about the abandoned girl pandemic in India. You can read more about their cause {<a href="http://littlejiji.com/our-story/" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;">here</span></a>}.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We are slowly but surely adding the finishing touches to Bentley's nursery. It is by far the most decorated room in our home and, I'm totally okay with that! I have loved putting my focus there. It has truly been a labor of love! For his nursery, I chose the "Nautical" theme for multiple reasons. I absolutely </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">love</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> that theme (if you haven't noticed <a href="http://www.hellolittlescout.com/2013/08/we-finally-made-it-to-utah-after-long-9.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://www.hellolittlescout.com/2013/07/i-cannot-believe-our-little-guy-is.html" target="_blank">here</a>) and I really wanted something that he could grow with and wasn't just "baby".</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">One of my favorite pieces has been this growth chart. I love that no matter where move to, we can always take it with us and keep those precious little memories! It completely amazes me how much our little boy has grown. Seriously wishing I could stop that! Here's what you'll need to make your own :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We had everything on hand except for the pine board so this project cost us a total of about $12. Not bad right?! I wasn't sure how the stain and paint would go together since we already had them but I love how it turned out! These were the ones we used.</span><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EslGRiPOIv4/UjZB5lp-TFI/AAAAAAAAFS4/HTE7lDcBN4g/s1600/2rectangles.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="599" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-EslGRiPOIv4/UjZB5lp-TFI/AAAAAAAAFS4/HTE7lDcBN4g/s2320/2rectangles.jpg" width="800" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g5HYRVtymIQ/UjZ8UIuPcwI/AAAAAAAAFTU/arqe_zlajEw/s1600/blank+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="800" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g5HYRVtymIQ/UjZ8UIuPcwI/AAAAAAAAFTU/arqe_zlajEw/s2320/blank+copy.jpg" width="775" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">1. First off, my pine board in this picture will look different than the one you have. For this tutorial, I used the back side of the one I had already made. (I'm lame and didn't take pictures of it the first time around because I wasn't sure how it would turn out). So it had already been stained before in the picture! I used 2 garbage bags and cut them in half to put underneath of the board. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2. Dip your paint sponge into the stain and go in strokes up and down the board. I would do a straight line from the top all of the way to the bottom without stopping. The pine will absorb the stain so its best to distribute the stain evenly to avoid the blotches. Mine wasn't perfect at all. If you look closely at the pictures below you will see the stain is a little bit uneven in places but I was kind of happy with a more "weathered" look. You can apply as many coats of stain as you want. It will get darker with each application but wait for it to dry in between coats if you choose to do multiple coats. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">3. & 4. All done! Let the stain dry completely. Yes, I know it's hard :) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">5. I couldn't find our measuring tape so I had to improvise a little bit. I used a permanent marker and marked inch marks all of the way down the board. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">6. Next, you will need to decide how you want it painted! I chose to do a stripe every 6 inches. Double and triple check this part to make sure everything is even and you have taped off the correct areas. This is the most tricky part! You can see how I taped off ours below. I painted 3-4 coats of the cream white paint so it would cover the stain. Make sure to let each coat dry completely before doing another! That way you will avoid clumps. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">7. Once the paint has dried, remove the painters tape and your ready to mark your board! I chose to start our board at the 1/2 foot mark that way I can hang it a 1/2 foot off the floor. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I used just a regular permanent marker for this and I used a stencil to trace out the numbers. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">If you've been following us for a while, I spoke briefly of our issues getting pregnant with Bentley in {<a href="http://www.hellolittlescout.com/2012/01/yay-we-are-so-excited-which-is-huge.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;">this</span></a>} post. It took us about a year of trying before our doctor allowed us to get onto Chlomid. We got pregnant on our first dose, which I am ever grateful for. As far as infertility goes, we were very lucky that was our only problem. My heart goes out to those families who are struggling with this. Needless to say, when All Things Lovely reached out to me, their cause hit very close to home. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3b3e42; font-family: 'PT Sans Narrow'; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;">From the very beginning, we wanted this website to be different.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3b3e42; font-family: 'PT Sans Narrow'; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;">My husband and I were ready to start a family. After two years of frustration, disappointment, and heartache, we decided to make an appointment with Dr. Richards and Dr. Marrs at Utah Fertility Partners. We soon found that with the issues facing both my husband and myself, we would have very little chance of ever conceiving on our own. So after a few test and appointments, we decided to empty our life savings and undergo in vitro fertilization. It was a risk, but we felt that it was the road we needed to travel. Three months of treatments, shots, hormones, and procedures whisked by, and we crossed our fingers and prayed for success. Our prayers were answered on January 9, 2011, when I gave birth to our first child, Winnie! The overwhelming joy, happiness, and fulfillment we felt that day is something we believe every family should be able to have. My husband and I wanted to find a way to help make a difference. </span></span></div>

We knew there had to be a better way for unique vendors to get exposure for their one-of-a-kind products. We knew the experience we wanted as a shopper, and we knew the way we wanted to be treated as a vendor. So, we set out to design our own platform and create the ideal experience we envisioned, both for our amazing vendors and for you, the shopper, the most important person of all! We also knew this was our chance to make a difference in the lives of couples struggling with infertility.</span></span></div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dS3ryUqj0Jg/UjUt0dpvcHI/AAAAAAAAFRQ/szDMQaGwkgY/s1600/fallwreath.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="800" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dS3ryUqj0Jg/UjUt0dpvcHI/AAAAAAAAFRQ/szDMQaGwkgY/s2320/fallwreath.jpg" width="767" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">If you live anywhere but California or Arizona you are probably feeling fall in the air and oh how jealous I am! Don't get me wrong, I am a sunshine lover but there is nothing more perfect than a fall afternoon. Pumpkin bread, boots, and sweater weather? How can you beat that!? </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">While we were in Utah, we saw the first signs of fall in the canyon leaves and I haven't been able to shake my fall fever since. This past week Los Angeles averaged around 90 degrees but I'm hoping that by putting up my fall wreath it will make it come faster. Wishful thinking? Maybe ;)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I made this wreath last year and it has officially become my favorite wreath ever. Like ever ever. It did take a while to make and I got more glue gun burns than I can even count but... it was well worth it!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q7Gbi8VYVBo/UjUwRyWHUtI/AAAAAAAAFRo/oFsNxh2oALM/s1600/step.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="777" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q7Gbi8VYVBo/UjUwRyWHUtI/AAAAAAAAFRo/oFsNxh2oALM/s2320/step.jpg" width="800" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Depending on the styrofoam wreath you buy, you will want to wrap it in some kind of fabric. Mine was a green so I definitely didn't want that color to show through! It will also help blend if you have pieces that are missing.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VUBU9TEOsb8/UjUqbIvHGwI/AAAAAAAAFQ0/Aok9sGU7t4U/s1600/IMG_2149.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="534" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VUBU9TEOsb8/UjUqbIvHGwI/AAAAAAAAFQ0/Aok9sGU7t4U/s2320/IMG_2149.jpg" width="800" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Next, I cut the burlap, lace, and tulle into 2 x 18 inch strips. I went with longer strips so that the rosettes would be bigger = less rosettes to wrap :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Once you have a ton of strips (not an understatement) cut out, it's time to roll those rosettes! These take some patience and some practice! Don't get discouraged if it doesn't look good the first time you try. As you get used to rolling them you will find the technique that works best for you. Here is how I did mine! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I97trmEuqPQ/UjUlbEme4bI/AAAAAAAAFQU/b7f3BjHQnOU/s1600/step1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="800" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I97trmEuqPQ/UjUlbEme4bI/AAAAAAAAFQU/b7f3BjHQnOU/s2320/step1.jpg" width="800" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">1. Fold the strip in half lengthwise with the raw edges together. I wanted the raw edges down so the fabric wouldn't unravel on the top of the rosette.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">2. Start by rolling up the end. Make sure you hot glue as you go to secure the roll. Don't forget to do this!!!</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">3 & 4 Rolling, rolling, and more rolling!</span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VCEgaYgPeLQ/UjUlbnEbOXI/AAAAAAAAFQY/C3KYnCZJ8w8/s1600/step2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="800" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VCEgaYgPeLQ/UjUlbnEbOXI/AAAAAAAAFQY/C3KYnCZJ8w8/s2320/step2.jpg" width="800" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">5. Rolling done!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">6. Once your rosette is all rolled, you will want to hot glue the end down. I also cut off the end if it was too bulky which helped it lay more flat against the wreath.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">7. I chose to decorate my rosettes with pearl beads! The way I found easiest to do this was with a pair of tweezers and a dab of hot glue. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">8. The finished rosette!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Now for the fun part- laying out and hot gluing all of those rosettes to the wreath!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hEX4usvNbK4/UjUut4TzlcI/AAAAAAAAFRc/RBrKvTZv11Y/s1600/IMG_2177.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="534" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hEX4usvNbK4/UjUut4TzlcI/AAAAAAAAFRc/RBrKvTZv11Y/s2320/IMG_2177.jpg" width="800" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Once finished, I hung a "fall" banner across that was made with the same burlap, some twine, and paper letters! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Have you caught fall fever yet!?</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We have so many friends whose babies just started school and it really got me thinking. I don't know how you moms do it! I'm kind of (okay, super) relieved I don't have to think about this for a couple of years. I honestly don't know what I will do without my little buddy, even if it's only for a couple of hours! I completely understand how other mom's cry when their babies go off to school. Trust me, I know I'll be "that mom" sitting in the car completely crying my eyes out!</span></div>

I mean, really? How cute can you get! Here's all the details of these darling little packs.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Hello Little Scout has been in dire need of an update for some time now. But with us being all over the place this summer (literally) it's been hard to find the extra time. I am </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>so</b></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> happy to say it's finally done and I couldn't be happier! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We were in need of a little virtual face lift :) </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I have made it easier to navigate and find previous posts, freebies, baby stuff, and tutorials. I have also added a search bar to the right so you can easily find anything you are looking for!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Lately, we have been getting a lot of questions about advertising, side bar ads, and sponsoring. It's taken me a while to even address this topic because honestly, I didn't even know where to start! I started this blog about 5 years ago as a journal for our family and it has expanded into something far greater than I ever could have imagined! Words cannot express my gratitude for everyone that has followed along with us on our journey. Because of this blog, I have met so many incredible and talented women whom I truly care for. You ladies mean more to me than you will ever know! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">With our growing followers, I am very excited to expand Hello Little Scout and our content to ideas, products, and brands that fit us and the style of our blog. If this is something that you are interested in you can </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">find more information under our <a href="http://www.hellolittlescout.com/p/sponsor.html" target="_blank"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #ea9999;"><b>{Sponsor}</b></span></a> page.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">On to the goods! We finally made it back to California after an end of summer vacation and 3 weeks of fun in Utah! It's always so good to see all of our family and friends. I'll admit though, it's nice to be back home on our regular schedule. Oh, and we missed the beach too :)</span></div>

Yeah, I'm the worst blogger ever! Seriously though, that's my end of summer resolution. I have a lot to catch you guys up on! </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">We started off the morning with some homemade blueberry pancakes. Only the best for my big birthday boy! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Then, we had to do what every baby does on their birthday and play in a crib full of balloons. Of course right!? We both had too much fun with this! It's so strange for me to look back at these photos and see how much Bentley has already changed. He looks so much older now, I definitely don't approve of this growing up thing!</span><br />
