A friend of mine (who had a baby recently) expressed concern on the phone to me the other day. "Jenn," she said, "the days crawl by, but the years are passing so quickly." I knew exactly what she meant. The days seem to take forever to get from start to finish, but holy ^%&$*#, how in the world is it possible that it's winter again, and that the holidays are around the corner? I think this is the plight of moms and dads everywhere. The older we get, the faster time passes (and the more tired we are at 10:30am, when the babies seem like they're never going to nap and relieve us of our parental duties for long enough to close our own eyes and/or take a shower!)

In hopes of making sure that the years don't pass so quickly, again, I want to follow up my last blog post - which was about baby announcements. I think I need to make a much larger effort to be a teeny bit more consistent with my posts (same ol' story, faithful readers!) so here we go.

Last I wrote, I lamented about how to crawl out of the sleep deprived, newborn baby hell that was my life back in January/February, and create beautiful, jaw dropping birth announcements for Hazel, the newest member of the Topliff family.

Well, with a little brainstorming and a few zzzz's under my belt, this is what I came up with! Just thought I'd share it with you all (patting myself on the back right now, is that so wrong?!)

Some of you may have received this in the mail, but for those who didn't, this was how I threw caution to the wind (and my husband's ideal budget for this project) and put the 13 Creative mark on Hazel's introduction to the world.
