Isn’t it beautiful!? I mean, I know Rebecca is talented (as well as just a really cool person) but she really surprised me with this one. I LOVE it. Honestly, when I opened up the preview site, I cried. Okay, I didn’t bawl, but I did cry. Not sure if it’s PMS or too much Lifetime channel, but I did. Not gonna lie.
I love things that are unique, original. And Rebecca always seems to come up with something new, consistently. And she came up with something on this blog that is so cool: each time you come back to the site, there is a new picture in the header. Or you can just do like I do, and refresh to see the entire clan π
Thank you so much, Rebecca!! You’re amazing! And you certainly put a big ol’ smile on this girl’s face today π
P.S. If the new design isn’t up yet, just come back in a lil’ bit… it’ll be worth it!!
Amie@HeartSmiles says
so glad you posted the P.S….
cuz its not loading on my screen yet,just the old one(which was nice too, btw.com), and I was about to do an intervention. Wasn’t sure what the root of the problem would be, just that things aren’t right. π
I don’t know if I can stay up long enough to STALK your blog and see if it is up.. but I LOVE REbecca’s work, and I KNOW it will be worth it… so I might try to hang. So fyi if your sitemeter.. shows some IP coming back 20 times tonight,, I’t just lil’ ol me. If you know what I’m sayin’.
Peace out!

Oh sweet… I made it up to see if LIVE! It is beautious!(yes, that’s a word!).. I love how simple it is. Not a lot of clutter. Totally my taste. She done good. And since you gave us the heads up about the header, I flittered(yup, that too) back and forth between the comments and blog post, so that I could see the pic change. Nice feature. Your crib is pimped!
She did an awesome job!!! Way to go Rebecca! And nice job on your scrap kit. I have now decided I will just have you pick mine out for me.. problem solved. π
btw- love the butterfly. Reminds me of Owen. Made me smile BIG!
Happy super-fly blog day!

I love it! Rebecca did my blog too and she is THE BEST!!!

Rebecca is amazingly talented!! I love it! If the sitemeter counts when you refresh a page, you might start getting 8 million hits a day! π
Regina says

Debby says
I'm glad you explained about re-freshing the page (I haven't tried it yet).
Victria…you came up when I entered the Blog….so don't worry…you're there!!! I was wondering what happened to the rest of the kids.
I don't know…for me, I prefer to see ALL of their smiling faces.
The rest of it is AWESOME though.

Oh wow Stefanie! What an awesome site, and I love the rotating photos – so each kid kind of gets to be the star for the day. Great job, it makes me want to do a fall re-do. π
Mom to my China Posse says
Love the new look, but I was also a big fan of the old one as well! I also look forward to news on your sisters adoption. You know I feel such a kinship to you and her both.

I think this is the best blog page I have seen! So gorgeous that I finally admitted defeat and dropped Rebecca a line. She is soooo talented and your blog was awesome even before the makeover!

It looks great, I love it!
Give the kids a hug from us here in TX.
Love,

Denise says
Love the new look!
And loved your Out on a Limb post. It shows everyone that not having the money can not be an excuse if God calls you to adoption.
Adopting again weighs very heavy on me at times, but my husband is fairly sure we are done. I will continue to see His will~
Global Girl says
Lovely, Stefanie!!

And your post about how God provided for Shepherd’s adoption is so FAITH BUILDING!!!!!!!!! YES GOD! He is able! And I SO look forward to that post about your sister…LOVE that the rest of your adoption money will go to her adoption…I can’t wait to see how we can help as well.
