A couple of things...

I wanted to show off this little end table James made:



The weird little picture on the table is kind of special to us. It's one of Tessa's first "intentional" drawings. James free-hand etched it into the wood (along with her signature on the bottom) and then brushed gold leaf into it. I can't find her original drawing on paper to show you, but it's exactly like what you're seeing on the table. The wood James used to make the table is what was leftover from when he made our bed:


Notice the bottle of tums on the bedside table.... I was pregnant when I took this photo.


In other news, the kids LOVE the chalkboard.

I highly suggest that you pick up some chalkboard paint and paint something.
