Baby Green | Personal | Maternity | Pregnant | Etsy

We are well into our second trimester and our little baby boy is growing nicely!
I had the privilege of receiving my first Mother's Day presents from Blake… a beautiful Mother's necklace created by Eclectic Wendy Designs on Etsy.

I knew I wanted something with Blake and I at the base and that I could add to as our family continued to grow. Wendy did a fabulous job deciphering my vague descriptions into a beautiful necklace.



Wendy so talented, isn't she? The Main disk says "P+B" with our wedding date around the bottom. There is a smaller disk with our baby's name engraved on it. When we have more children, we can simply add more small disks. I love it!

So, what is our little one's name? Ready for it? Here it is!



Yup, our little boy will be named Kaleb.
Kaleb Eugene (after my father and grandfather) Green
Notice we're spelling Kaleb with a "K"… Blake thought of that, now it contains the same letters as Blake! Go ahead, check… see! I love it and Blake's giddy about it, so its set in stone… or set in metal.

Freesia + Jordan | Portraits | Engagement | Craig Park | Brea, CA

Very special engagement session! Jordan is Blake's oldest brother and that means hes relatively awesome. Freesia is Jordan's love, and shes made of awesome too.

Oh, and they're both beautiful people. :D




Freesia got carried away...


I told them to just act natural… so as I was shooting the rainbows, Freesia stuck her foot in Jordan's face. If that isn't the sign of healthy, lasting relationship, then I don't know what is.




Do you adore the "Spooning Spoon"? It was created especially for us by Beach House Living on Etsy.





I love Freesia's ring. Its so feminine and lovely.




The Green's are cuddly folk.



How awesome was that?
Just wait till you see their fabulous, backyard wedding!

In My Bag: a summary of Paige

So….
I thought I'd share a bit of me.
allow me to introduce...



1. My Purse.

I love my bag. Seriously, I have a major "purse" fetish, but this has to be my favorite bag ever. I found Fantella on Etsy, and asked her if she could make a lips/mustache bag (my most recent obsession since we started our Photo+Booth). She well surpassed my expectations. I love the hobo style and the double snaps. the tiny pocket inside and the fact that this bag is absolutely ONE OF A KIND!

2. My Wallet

Another fabulous Etsy find. (but she has her own store too). I wanted something with our mini logo (P+B) on it. Its personal, and I think of Blake when I see it. :D

I emailed Quiet Doing and she said it was no problem at all! Then after I ordered my bag, I asked if she could slap a stache and some lips on the back so they would match. Again, not a problem. Much like my bag, I was thrilled with the quality of the wallet and the uniqueness that is all mine.

3. My Phone

I know the iPhone is all the rage, but I cannot stand AT&T. I thought I was getting the poor man's iPhone when we went for the HTC Droid, but I was so wrong! I love my phone.

(and yes, that is Buster on the front. Call it puppy love)

4. Mini Notebook

I needed something small to take notes when I meet with clients, but I really don't dig the mini spiral note pad. Paper Pastries to the rescue.

5. Mini Change Purse

As much as I love my wallet, there is very minimal space for change. Wild Mustangs keeps change off the bottom of my rockin' purse and ready to spend when I feel like a jawbreaker or temporary tattoo.

6. Extra Card Wallet

I have so many random membership and business cards I need a place to store them.

The oldest thing in my wallet, I bought this over 5 years ago when I worked at Franklin Covey. They don't make this style anymore, but basically everything that comes from that store is quality. (and yes, that's my PPA membership card)

7. Business Card Wallet

Its so light but carries over 100 business cards. I love it. And I love In Blue. An rad person who make rad thingies. I use the wallet to hold both P+B business cards and the LDS Bride business cards.

8. Um……

Yeah, perhaps its inappropriate to include this, but its a total life save and embarrassment avoider.

9. Vintage Barbie Glasses Case

Bought it HERE. It adds a bit of "Pink" to my bag and makes me feel 7 years old again.

10. Retainer

Yeah… I my braces have been off for less than a year. That means I carry these bad boys with me everywhere I go. (Buster found it one night and chewed the crap out of the corner)

11. Mirror

Gotta have on in your bag! Mine was created by How Nice on Etsy.

12. My Favorite Perfume

Its Sugar Lemon and was purchased at Sephora a few years ago. Its fresh and citrusy. The very best "every day" perfume ever. (they've changed the bottle since I bought mine)

13. MK Makeup

I admit it freely - I adore MaryKay makeup. I wont use anything else. (I even sell it for the 50% discount!)

So that's it! I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek into my life.
