There's a sale going on at http://www.kypressdesigns.com and if you use the promocode "august50" at http://kypressdesigns.storenvy.com you'll get 50% off items there as well!
And I think that the named url is only going to be open til the end of August. I believe I will be shutting it down then, if not sooner. The storenvy shop will still be open and I'll still accept custom orders via e-mail or message on the fan page!
Of course, I seriously doubt that anyone is even reading this post. I don't know if anyone except for a select handful of people have even seen ANY of my posts lately.
Well, it's 3am and my daughter will be up in 3 very short hours if not sooner (sun rises around 6am and she's up when it starts showing). Wish me luck! And go check out the new products I'd been listing!!!!

More photos + Discount!
April of Trio Photography and Design came to my place this morning to take photos of my kiddos in some of my and Babcia's Heart's pieces. (And I may have snuck in a few purses from Faithann's Gifts and More...) I'm super excited about these pictures even though neither child cooperated very much (Wren was sleepy by the time we got to him--I should've had her do his part first) but Moira had fun and there were no temper tantrums. That's what matters! I will be sure to post the photos when I get them.
And now for the important part. DISCOUNT! (Imagine I said that like "Flo" from the Progressive commercial...) I kind of missed posted a sale for Independence Day. I'd like to offer a 25% discount on all custom orders payed before July 15th, excluding orders that have a higher discount on them. E-mail me at kypressdesigns@gmail.com or message me on facebook to place your order and talk about what you want. Once I get the promo code for storenvy made and get the items on the webstore marked down, I will post about that. However, you know how my track record is--I probably won't get around to it, turthfully. It would be safer to e-mail me!
Now, go enjoy you heat wave, take a dip in the pool, eat that ice cream before it melts all over ya, and try to stay cool! I'm going to sit here by the air conditioning and try to work on some jewelry before the baby wakes back up....

I FOUND MY HEAD!
I FOUND MY HEAD!
Okay, let me clarify--not the one that is supposed to be on my shoulders. No, that one I lost a long time ago and have no hope of finding ever again. I found my styrofoam head! So, when the lighting is right outside I have a few pieces to run outside and get some quick shots of. I hope y'all like them!
Y'know, I had this whole big post planned.... But the baby wants held and is being super cute at 5 o'clock in the morning and I've forgotten what else there was that I wanted to type! Maybe I'll remember later...
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!
ETA: While I found my head, I now seem to have misplaced my camera.... I'd like to do something better than crappy cell phone photos, but it's not looking promising!

I apologize a lot, don't I?
Well, my last post was in January. If you "like" the fan page on facebook, then you know I'm still around! And I've been posting things about the pregnancy there. Speaking of, Wren Alexander was born April 30th at 1:44am EST. He weighed 8lbs 12.9oz and was 20 3/4 inches long. (I won't post my labor and delivery story, don't worry. That's for the mommy blog!) Moira is super excited about her baby brother but hates it when he cries.. Which is when mommy isn't holding him, during diaper changes, or if there isn't a boob or bottle in his mouth. She loves to pet him, too, for some reason. "Because he's so cuuuuuuuute," she squeels.
His newborn photos were taken by April of Trio Photography and Design. She was absolutely WONDERFUL with the kids--it helps that she has a thirteen year old boy and a two year old girl as well.
I have a destash sale album posted on the fan page right now. I need to post them on the webpage instead of breaking facebook rules and selling them there. I will work on listing those tomorrow. Hopefully. OBVIOUSLY I have a wonderful track record for "plans". And this little boy loves to be cuddled and held all the time. Preferably with a boob or bottle in his mouth.
I will be participating in a fundraiser in July at Sunflowers 4 Jeni. I don't remember what I am sending off of the top of my head right now. The pieces are set aside, I know that much! They're labeled so I don't try to sell them or gift them to anyone else.
Also, there's new products on both webstores! http://www.kypressdesigns.com and http://kypressdesigns.storenvy.com. I post promocodes for the storenvy store often. I'm still trying to decide which store I like better. There are pros and cons to both and I'm not quite tech-savvy enough to do much more on either than I do already. I will be breaking down and closing one of them (and of course, using the custom url) but I just need to figure out which way to go.
I did find a few of my patterns. I have created pdf files of them and they are posted on both websites I believe. I finally started making the mini top hats using the pattern I received from Monkey Shine Designs. LOVE THEM. However, when I came home from the hospital, I picked up my hook and started working up another but couldn't remember the pattern anymore. I actually like the new way I'm doing them. They are smaller a bit but they stay in form better. I haven't tried attaching roses or flowers yet... The attachments are going to end up being almost as big as the hat! I'll figure out a middle ground eventually.
Alrighty... Now that it's the day AFTER I started writing this post, I think I need to quit typing and either sleep since the baby is sleeping for a bit or get to crocheting while he isn't wanting to be held. Sleep is looking like it's going to win, just a warning. With how much this child loves being cuddled, making jewelry is going to be interesting! As always, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me! I check my e-mail daily (multiple times a day often) so you should receive a quick response! I love doing custom orders, so don't hesitate to inquire about those either. Good night everyone! [And sorry about the huge gap between posts... and about all the links in this post!]

| The hat he's wearing and the blanket he's on? I made those! |
She also photographs my pieces for me when I can get them to her! Otherwise, it's my digital camera or cell phone.... Here's her facebook page!

Apologies!
I'm sorry! I still haven't finished up those new pieces yet--OR found my patterns that I wanted to share with y'all. It seems like the universe has something out for me lately. If I'm not sick, someone else in the family is! And we're still fighting my three-and-a-half year old for potty training (we're almost out of diapers; if she's not on the pot by then, well, she's outta luck because we can't buy anymore).
And then Saturday at work (I posted this on facebook and twitter), I had a pregnancy brain moment. I'd started brewing decaf... about half way through the pot, I forgot that I'd just started it and didn't seem to see the stream of boiling liquid. I tried to dump the coffee grounds. Instead I burned my hand pretty good. [BY THE WAY, did you know that yellow mustard helps with burns? I didn't, but everyone else at McDonald's did! and it really does help.] I can use it now--it still hurts to grip my pliers, so I won't be doing jewelry for a few more days, but I can crochet now!
My husband has a sinus infection and his nose won't quit bleeding. We spent 3 hours at the doctor's office today--I had an OB appointment to check on our little boy and we were trying to get him seen by a physician's assistant (spent half hour in waiting room, hour in the room waiting for the doc, half hour in check up, half hour waiting for his appointment, half hour in room with the p.a.)--a lot of the issue today was their system kept crashing. But we're always waiting an hour or more for my doctor. It's that way no matter who I'm seeing. But, back to the hubs. So he's pretty worthless right now. No matter what pain killer he uses, it quits after about two hours. Ibuprofen does nothing for him, acetaminophen just dulls the pain, Alleve took the pain away completely--but then came back full force after a few hours.. My poor hubby. I wish I could do something to take away the pain.... besides, you know, knocking him out. Really don't want to add a concussion to his already long list of ailments.
Feel free to look around my facebook page. There are a lot of really awesome shops with giveaways going on--and ALL of them have really awesome items! I love each and every one of them! I still need to update my link list here on the blog. But, until then, check out facebook! And, as always, my shop at storenvy is open (I still need to get kypress designs fixed and running again.)
If you have any questions or any suggestions, feel free to e-mail me at kypressdesigns@gmail.com ! I hope you are all having a wonderful year so far!
