Lulu is Art!


Two posts in one week? Crazy, right? I remember when I started the blog it was hard not to post twice a day! I’m trying to get back in the habit.

I’ve wanted to get a custom silhouette of Lulu to add to this “gallery wall” I’ve been working on in our house for quite some time now. I finally found the perfect one on etsy and I can’t tell you how excited I am! I sent a side profile picture of Lulu, and in a couple of days, my proof was ready. They shipped the finished product the next day. Super easy. Here’s how it turned out:     

This is the picture I sent in...

and this is the finished product! I love it!

Finally, a new post!


I know, I know, I’ve fallen off the blogging wagon. I’m lucky if I can crank out one post a month. I’m going to start trying harder because I really want to have a way to remember all the cute and funny things Lulu does.

She’s been giving me this new look when I take pictures of her; I’m going to call it the donkey face. She squints her eyes and shows her teeth. You’d think she’d be a pro by now after all the pictures I take, but I still have to make monkey noises and meow like a cat to get her to do the perfect head-tilt pose. It gets embarrassing when other people are around! She’s probably doing the donkey face on purpose so I’ll stop blinding her with the camera flash.

So what has Lulu been up to lately? Let me fill you in. She’s been doing a lot of reading. We’ve had a magazine rack in our living room forever, but all of the sudden she has decided that it’s fun to pull one out and shred it when we’re gone. She’s also destroyed my Victoria’s Secret coupons, ate some Halloween decorations and chewed the paint off our windowsill (again). Oh, she’s also visited the pumpkin patch and dabbled in a little yoga (see pictures below).

fun at the pumpkin patch!
almost the donkey face again

She obviously didn't think I should be shopping at VS

Yoga!

Namaste.

this pose must be "upward dog"
