Friday Photography

I want to start off by saying I am very excited to start a new venture. Hena Tayeb Photography will now be accepting wholesale orders! Spread the word! Hand of the Help - Color, wrinkles, nails, veins, slenderness and length; so many things make up a hand, so many characteristics. Each hand different from the last, each hand with its own personality, with its own story. This hand is of a janitorial woman working in my college. She was taking a break, resting her hand and taking a breath, some peace from her otherwise tiresome day. The contrast of the color of her skin and her clothes, the position and placement of her hand, her posture, everything came together to make what would seem like an ordinary image into an extraordinary photograph.    You can buy this print  here  Get Free Shipping with code BLOGGER Prints also available in larger sizes.  Contact  for more information and special requests. Love this print but don't think your wall is ready just yet.. ho

Where do the days go?

Days and nights have become a blur and 7 weeks have gone by since D came into our life. He coos and makes eye contact with us.. feigns interest when I jabber on and on about nothing in particular. This post could do go on and on about all the wonders of D so I'll stop now.. yes, I have become one of those mom's who find their babies to be the most interesting subject matter. But motherhood hasn't stopped me from keeping my shop updated and though my promotional and marketing skills may have become a bit lacking I *Thank God* have still managed to make a few sales. Red Print  and The Inner Core And with the heat beating down on us.. summer is definitely here to stay so a few more flower infused art prints never hurt anyone.. right? So here is Live. Grow. Bloom.                                      and a few more waiting in the wings aching to be listed.. till then enjoy the hot summer days. It won't be long before they are gone..

Happy Long Weekend!

I know! I know! It's not the weekend yet but it's just a day away.. and Friday is a half day anyway.. and I intend on enjoying this weekend the second it starts. Which hopefully be this time tomorrow. Why so much enthusiasm for this particular long weekend.. well this is officially our last long weekend before baby arrives.. we could get the 4th of July weekend.. but that will be just too late and I think relaxing will be the last thing on my mind then and will be thinking more along the lines of how do I get this baby out! Our plans for this weekend.. well lets just say its all about relaxing. I'll give you the deets in next weeks post. And to all of you out there lucky enough to get a long weekend, enjoy! Get out and bar.b.que, take in the sun and let everything else just melt away. In the last week I have been lucky enough to be in three wonderful treasuries all deserving of your clicks: Secret Garden Meet Me There and  I am the Light of the World I have also li

10 Days

I can't believe it has been ten days since I last blogged. I have been so busy and tired that time just slipped away from me. I don't even know where to start. What's happening now may be a good start, I have a lunch party on Saturday, girls only kind of like a baby shower but a bit religious in nature. Lots of cooking needed, which thank god my aunt is taking care of. I have another aunt flying in from LA and one of my childhood friends coming in from Atlanta. Excited! But for now what I do need to do is clean house. With we getting closer to my due date I've been ignoring the dust gathering and just cleaning what I need to clean. But with twenty something people coming over I have gotten back to cleaning all the nitty gritties.. a little everyday.. todays task THE KITCHEN! Half way done.. so yippee.. taking a break and will get back to the rest in a bit. That was a domestic update now for a baby update.. we bought a crib.. yet to be assembled.. we also bought a gl

Butt Cramps!!!

Yes you read right.. I have gotten butt cramps.. they stay hidden for most of the day but then all of a sudden when you least expected BANG.. this sharp pain shoots down my leg and one of my butt checks cramps up like it's having a seziure! Not fun! This makes my very frequent bathroom trips all the more troublesome.. Curious, I Googled butt cramps and turns out I'm not the only one. Thank God for that.. not that I enjoy others pain it's just that having butt cramps is just weird. Anyway.. turns out that while the baby is partying inside..tumbling about and using my bladder as a squeeze toy s/he manages to roll on over my sciatic nerve and when the nerve is pinched it cause pain to shoot up and down my leg.. Oh well as long as the baby is enjoying him/herself.. right?! In other news.. we have two decent sized closets in each room but they lack shelving..meaning the space is just being wasted.. so we decided to install our own shelving and optimize the space in our close

And the bad news just keeps on coming.. with some good mixed in

So it all started a few months ago when my mother's visa gets denied and she can no longer come visit me when the baby arrives. Then I get gestational diabetes (which I learned I have a very borderline case and should not be too much of a very) nevertheless I have to prick myself and test my blood sugar levels 4 times a day. And then last night we find out that my in-laws also got denied visa's. But then again every dark cloud has a silver linning.. and so does mine. All this time I was sad for being far from home and no one being able to come to be with me and share with me this amazing experiance. All this time I missed not being surrounded by my family, my girlfriends, the girls I grew up with. But what I failed to see was the new friends I have made over the last two years. I also discovered that my dear husband will never fail to surprise me. My secret desire was to have a baby shower, but I wan't going to say it out load, it defeats the purpose. And thank god I didn
