Breastfeeding love

I'm totally in love with this nursing photo and can't stop looking at it.



Moms, how long did you breastfeed your babies? And moms-to-be, how long do you imagine you will? Three months? Six months? A year? Toddler-age? Or not at all? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Have a great weekend.

My sweets, what are you doing this weekend? We're going out for sushi tonight and heading to the Pulse Art Fair tomorrow. (I'm hoping to meet Kim McCarty, whose paintings are amazing!) We're also trying to convince Toby that crawling might be fun now that's he's nine months old. He prefers to just sit and chill. :) Meanwhile, here are a few fun links from around the web...



AMAZING ship wallpaper!!!



Ahoy! The cutest sailor jeans.



Awesome fabrics of London + Paris.



Polka dots in Milan.



The loneliest whale in the world.



Beautiful moon print.



Michigan mittens!



A clip from Annie Hall to make you smile.



A dinosaur birthday party.



Beautiful childhood photos from the (brand new!) Momfilter.



Since a few readers asked, the red lipstick that Caroline was wearing was Covergirl Outlast Lipstain in Wild Berry.



Plus, three of my favorite Cup of Jo posts:

* City Hall wedding in overalls.

* Cute families.

* Belly shots.



Have a good one, my darlings!

Pinhole Press

My lovelies, have you heard of the new Pinhole Press? They have beautiful, simple photo products--like cards, books, framed prints and notepads. You personalize them with your favorite photos (wedding, baby, vacations), and it's really easy to do. The finished products are gorgeous with silky paper. Take a peek here.



(A fun side note: My friends launched Pinhole Press a few months ago. I'm excited to say that I'm partnering up with them this year and I'll be sharing new products and fun ideas on Cup of Jo. Hope you love them as much as I do!)

Have an adventurous weekend!

My sweets, what are you doing this weekend? My mom is coming from Michigan to visit tomorrow, and Alex and I are taking a staycation in New York next week! Alex is staying home from work, and my mom will hang out with Toby while Alex and I go on adventures, like taking snowy bike rides, going to a speakeasy in Queens and having long dinners with friends. We're even considering staying in a hotel for a night (is that crazy?). I'm so excited for a breather and want to give my mom a huge kiss for letting us galavant around the city!



Meanwhile, one of my favorite bloggers will be guest posting next week. And here are a few fun posts from around the web...



Adorable family frame wall.



Tightrope walking sculptures.



Remember this pitch-perfect wedding? Well, Emma wrote a book!



A lovely way to spend a rainy day with a little dude.



How to look like Bonnie and Clyde.



Have you ever tried milk soap? It's on my wishlist.



Pixel pour = rad street art.



A treehouse bed.



Have a great weekend, and a big hug to you all!

Pregnant belly and fruit

Photographer Carolee Beckham is expecting a baby and is doing a fun photo series: She takes a snapshot of her growing belly and the piece of fruit that corresponds to the size of her baby that week. Huge congratulations, Carolee!



P.S. Crazy to think that in the final photo she'll be holding a watermelon!

Back to the future

For her Back to the Future project, photographer Irina Werning, where she invites people to reenact their childhood photos. Awesome.
