For weeks he had been secretly hoping
Ash had been very excited about my getting contacts for some time, and complemented me on my new look when I came home from the appointment.
I didn’t grasp his ulterior motives until very recently.
ps – I did a mini-makeover of my blog last night, click through & let me know what you think!
What a dashing young man! :)
Oh my goodness I looovovveee his new specs! how in the world did you get him to sit still for this? My dog would’ve run away in terror!
Like the new look! Looking forward to A Little Thistle, whatever it may hold. :)
Bahaha, I love it!
And I loooooove your new blog design!
LOVE the re-design. And Mal of course :)
it looks great! thanks for letting me (or your rss readers know). i always read, even if i rarely comment.
Love the new site and Ash is adorable! See adding accessories to your dog and snapping pictures is fun isnt it? If we lived closer I imagine we would have a photoshoot with our dogs. =)
The site looks great and Ash looks adorable! You’re so generous to pass your glasses down. How are the contacts coming along? Changing your life?
The new blog design is gorgeous!! The only thing I miss is having our “most recent posts” underneath our comments! I loved looking through other peoples blogs while I”m here :).
He’s such a cute pup! Hipster Ash has a nice ring to it :)
I absolutely love the new look! It’s so clean, and the extra column is definitely handy! Can’t wait for you to get started on mine. ;)
Thanks so much! :)
I’m definitely still adjusting, but even though it’s only been a few days I’m getting used to them really quickly. I think it’s mostly the mental adjustment of feeling like I shouldn’t be able to see when I don’t have my frames on!
Like the layout!
Ash looks perfectly happy like that! Can’t imagine many dogs doing the same.
Too cute!
The blog looks great. You’ve got an eye for this stuff, woman. Love it!
Ash is so cute!! And your blog looks superb (as expected :-p)
what a delightfully dashing doggie!
this is so cute. seriously.
<3
I use both contacts and glasses. I cannot stand to wear my glasses out, even though they are cute, so I wear my contact instead. Thankfully our insurance covers the exams and I only change my frames every two years. 800Contacts is my go to for Focus550 contacts. I hope you enjoy them!
Oh and the bloggy makeover is awesome! I love how it turned out. :)
Thanks for the tip! I’m definitely going to look for online options, contacts are really convenient but one of mine is special & I could see the cost racking up!
That little guy is too cute! He can break hearts with those stunna shades :)
You have the most adorable site!
Love the new layout. Third column is all the rage. :)
And “a little thistle” sounds absolutely brilliant.
Excited to see what’s in store (pun intended).
:)
Blog looks great! I like the three columns.
That is such a cute photo. Very impressive he sat still long enough for you to take it :)
by the way, please tell Ash he look FAB with geek specs.
I let him know & he looked up at me with a face that said “WILL THERE BE FOOD?”
;)
KYLA, I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! i totally ♥ your work.
With the tweaks it’s even cuter than before! I just love your style — you’ve got a fabulous eye. Also, super curious about A Little Thistle! What have you got in store for us now?
Lots of handmade accessories and jewelry :)
I can’t wait to show you! :)
I love the new blog look! It’s fresh and pretty :) And your pup looks quite adorable…congrats on the contacts!
Loving the 3-column look. And your pup is so adorable! :)
Blog looks great, Ash is adorable and A Little Thistle cannot come soon enough. Prepare to earn a significant amount of my bank account, miss.
your puppy is too cute. what an adorable picture.
and i absolutely love the new look. 3 columns suits you. ;)
and your etsy store news is so exciting!!
can’t wait girl.
Thanks so much! I’ve been wanting three columns for a long time, and this theme loads so much faster than my old one, I’m so happy with it :)

You crack me up. This is beautiful, as per usual. xo
Love the new look :) on the blog AND on the dog!
I’m impressed that he sat long enough with those glasses on for you to take a photo! Lucy? Would have freaked out and immediately knocked them off her head.
The redesign looks great! And I miss you!
I tried with Mal first, but it seemed to upset him- luckily for me, Ash is wildly motivated by food :)
Too cute!!
Love the blog makeover!!! SO cute :)
Oh my gosh, so cute!
And your site looks wonderful! You are so talented!!!
Hope the adjustment to contacts is going well!!
I thought your site was gorgeous before–and now it looks even better!
Clicked around a bit and found your Four Little Pots project; what a fantastic idea! I’ve been wanting to grow a few small pots of herbs but am afraid I won’t be able to find seedlings this late in the year and growing from seeds makes me feel a little panicky. maybe next year…
I’m a big fan of buying fresh herbs from farmer’s markets too, it’s a much quicker turnaround compared to growing from seed ;)
I too love the new look! I’ve been having such a hard time with the look of my blog lately and it is driving me nuts! I’m trying to get it the way I want it before baby comes (3 weeks – yikes!) because I know I want have time to think about the look of it afterwards.
Ha! What a cute shot! LOVE the title :)
Blog looks fantastic, chickadee.
I love your layout. Those tiny polka dots are so cute! How are you liking your contacts? I couldn’t imagine life without them. Next best thing after LASIK and I can’t quite afford that yet.
Thanks so much for the kind words about the design :)
I’m really loving my contacts, I’m definitely still adjusting to them & I sometimes have a little trouble reading with them, but I’m only a few days in. Overall? It’s love. :)
Ha! He does have ulterior motives! Love love love the new look – and SO excited for your Etsy shop!!!
LOVE the new look of the site.
I am desperately trying to come up with a new look for my blog too. Yours gives me some much needed inspiration :)
