“So When Are You Having Babies?”

August 7th, 2007 @ 9:30 am by Mrs. Pearl

My name is Mrs. Pearl and I am a baby stalker.

That is my husband’s (eeeee, just getting used to saying that!) term of endearment for me regarding my absolute infatuation with babies. I love ’em. They smell great — like baby powder, milk, and sweetness. They’re soft. They’re adorable. I can pretty much find a baby in any crowd and make eyes with them the…

MARRIED!!!

July 31st, 2007 @ 8:29 am by Mrs. Pearl

Just checking in quickly to say that we are officially married!!!

Some people say their wedding day was stressful. I’m in the opposite camp. I had the best possible day I could imagine. I don’t think I’ve smiled more, laughed harder, or felt happier than I did on Saturday. I would go so far as to say it was the best wedding EVER, but of course…

Decisions, Decisions

July 10th, 2007 @ 6:28 pm by Mrs. Pearl

For our wedding favors, I planned for us to give out cookie favors like the one Miss Lime is giving out. The cookie shop is one that is right by the college we both went to and is famous for their delicious cookies at rock bottom prices. The problem, however, is that the cookies do not save very well — we’d have to pick up…

This is approximately how I feel about the wedding planning process right now. I am just so over it. I’m ready to be married. I have had a stomachache for the last 24 hours or so due…

7-7-7

July 7th, 2007 @ 1:07 pm by Mrs. Pearl

Well, it’s finally upon us. July 7, 2007, the most anticipated wedding date ever. I had heard as much on The Knot (and figured since there are a good 10 girls getting married on that day on my local board), but this was a story of obsession on the local news all day today. News stories estimate approximately 38,000 couples will say “I Do” on…

The Dress Makes The Woman

I had my first dress fitting on Friday. I will warn you in advance that I have no pictures because I went alone.

The good: My dress looks really good on me. I was afraid of having pick-ups in the skirt because I was afraid it would make my butt look big(ger), but it was actually kind of slimming (and believe me, I did look from…

Ethereal Ephemera

I blogged about my invitations many moons ago when trying to figure out which design layout to use. However, I haven’t given y’all the up front and proper scoop when it comes to the invitations (in part because I’d been procrastinating taking the pictures and uploading them to share).

Several months ago, I contacted a letterpress invitation designer who created another bee’s wedding invitations. He was…

Burn Out Revisited

Thanks to all the readers who commented about my wedding burn out. I took all your advice to heart and as such, I’ve actually made some progress! Of the things I complained about, I’ve done the following:

Calligraphy? Calligraph-ME!

June 12th, 2007 @ 4:33 pm by Mrs. Pearl

Several months ago, I took a short calligraphy class at my local Paper Source store in hopes that I would become great enough to address my own wedding envelopes (and thus, save us some coinage). I have been exposed to calligraphy before — we had to learn a little bit when I went to Catholic school as a child; and I kind of look at…

Reservations…Not Just For Dinner

June 4th, 2007 @ 4:58 pm by Mrs. Pearl

I am truly envious of the brides who go into their wedding day all blushing and innocent, full of all the hopes and dreams of their childhood and beyond. The brides whose parents have been married for their entire lives and have that great type of marriage you see on TV or in movies.

I can’t say I’m one of those people.

My parents have been divorced…
