1// Something that rarely happens: a photo of me with my babes in which I'm showered, looking mostly presentable, and not taking a half-assed selfie with my phone. A mom-of-twins miracle! (super thanks to my husband who shot this for me!)
2// Another shameless photo of my nuggets because look at those faces! They'll be six months this week, and I can't believe it's already been half a year. Vince is trying to crawl so bad, and Hazel is such a master roller that every time I turn my back, she's in a new spot. I've also decided that I'll continue to share their monthly photos on my instagram rather than here on the blog. It's just easier for my life right now.
3// I've started taking barre classes at a local studio, and it is giving me LIFE. It's something I've been wanting to try for ages, and after taking the first class, I was all, "Yep. This is exactly what I need." The studio also offers different types of yoga and cardio classes, so I get to try those things as well. So stoked that I'm being active again. Even though the babes definitely keep me active in a different way, sometimes I just need to be in a room where a toned woman is instructing me to do plié squats until my quads burn.
4// A friend let me know about a tapestry weaving workshop at West Elm that I could sign up for, and I'm so glad I did! I was just writing in my last post that I wanted to learn this particular craft, and the class was so good! It was taught by Anna of Prissage Studio, and she set us up with our very own wooden loom and tools to start weaving. She taught us a few basic weaving techniques, the importance of a good warp, and how to finish off the piece once we're done. She even gave us a bunch of extra yarn so we could finish our work at home. I finished mine a few days later, and I'm already thinking ahead to the next few I want to do! The creative possibilities seem endless, and I've been getting lots of weaving inspiration from instagram. I smell a visit to Michael's coming up very soon, so I can stock up on all the yarn :)
