Wyman Wolf is One.

My baby boy is almost a year old! Time has flown and seemingly stopped all at the same time.

We had Wyman's party the weekend before his actual birthday (since it falls on Easter this year). The best part was my whole family made the effort to come! They all live in GA and we are in LA so it's a small journey to get here. They made everything we did so special. We had a party, did the cake smashing thing, went to Chuck-e-Cheese, opened presents, laughed until we cried, got hyper a time or two and snuggled with Wolfy any chance we got! He loved every minute of it.

 I am so happy that sweet boy is mine. 

A special week for a special boy <3

A Rad Children's Curation

I put together a curation of some of my favorite kiddy things on Etsy. With Easter and my son's birthday {which also happens to be the same day as Easter } quickly approaching I have been gathering gift inspirations everywhere! For some reason I am loving the boldness of red right now... not red mixed with other colors but red in a modern way with neutrals like cognac and white. I mean red is a statement making color and I love the way these vintage toys feel slightly up-dated when curated with modern toys.

Everyday with this guy is better than the day before. 

He is a charming "people person". 

He is serious about his snacks and his Daddy. 

He loves to clap when he hears music. 

He repeats sounds you make back to you. 

He is cutting 3 teeth on the top. 

He stands un-aided more and more.

He is a kissing fool. 

He loves to look at himself in the mirror

He has us wrapped around his little finger.

                              

Spring at E W McCall

Spring is in the air (finally). 

We are playing outside, sitting in the sunshine, and enjoying the longer days. 

Our work is reflecting our excitement for spring! New prints, products and designs are hitting our shop just in time for Easter! Come and see: EWMcCall

Wolfy Goes to Fairhope

Fairhope, Al. A place where the sun kisses everything it touches, a place where the trees are magical, the flowers are always blooming and your body and soul can find peace. So much of our heritage on my Mom's side is from Fairhope (that may also have something to do with why I love it so...). My Mom and brothers got to go for a weekend visit so Wolfy and I decided to make the drive too, and it didn't disappoint. We laughed, played cards, napped, walked around the city, visited the bay, ate crab claws, and watched Wolf play. It was magical. 

Until next time Fairhope. 

E W McCall: the Re-Launch

If you haven't checked us out at EWMcCall.etsy.com  in a while, you should head over there! 

We did a huge sale at the beginning of the year and cleared out all our old merchandise. 

Then we re-launched, if you will, our brand. 

The new product reflects our styles and personal tastes as designers. We want our brand to be a lifestyle  brand with a bit of surprise. Our southern heritage lends itself to a vintage vibe, which you will find in most of our designs. But also we love a good modern fit and some modern details at that. Special finishing touches such as leather details or hand stitching, take our product to the next level. We love to create and our brand is constantly evolving and we love that.

9 Months Old

Wolfy is more and more mobile these days. He is cruising around and finding all kinds of new things to explore. WWR is a Daddy's boy. He cut two teeth on the bottom and it's probably the cutest thing I have ever seen. The teething has a brought a new side to him, a clingy side. It's trying sometimes, but mostly he still loves everyone! He waves at every person he sees. He has given up his bottle. Loves his sippy cup (with a straw). This boys still loves to eat! We did discover one thing he doesn't like: strawberries.

8 Months Old

Time really does fly when your having fun. It is so hard to believe that WWR is 8 months old. I mean what happened to the last 7 months. My sweet baby boy is so happy and full of curiosity! Everyday is a new experience and a new chance for adventure. Wolfy loves. to. eat. Seriously this kid can put some food away, it is frightening actually. He still loves people, but is more choosy about who he likes. He is going through a kind of attachment phase, sometimes for no reason at all he just cries until Mommy or Daddy come to the rescue. He claps, loves music, squeals, sorta says "da-da", pulls up and stands on his own. He works on his "walking" skills daily with his little walker. Also he eats everything he sees on the floor- yikes.
