I found it

The perfect inspiration for our master bedroom. I love the colors and the headboard and duvet! Now I just need the moola. Sigh. What do you think?P.S. I don't remember where I found this pic otherwise I would give credit. Oh well! … [Read more...]

Warning: picture-heavy long post ahead.

You've been warned! So, today after we got home from church, Rory and Sadie took a nap out on the couch for like, almost 3 hours! wow! I almost didn't know what to do with myself. hehe, I said ALMOST. I sewed up this cute trick or treat bag for Sadie, and then looked around for something else to do.I have been organizing and decorating my craft … [Read more...]

Front yards, herbs, and ironing boards.

How quaint is that title? I feel like little Miss Homemaker. haha. Rory is out in the front yard pulling out ugly plants as we speak. Sadie is napping away, although making little sounds. She may wake up soon. Better hurry! My little herbies! The cilantro is growing like a weed, and the others...not so much. Slow and steady.... Last night I made … [Read more...]

New furniture! and cute baby

Today Sadie was Ms. Cranky Pants all morning long! She was up at 5 o' clock because of numerous long naps yesterday...soo, Mommy was up at 5 as well. Fun times! I watched some TV and we chilled out on the couch til Daddy woke up to go help clean the church. While he was gone we had a bright moment on the changing table when she laughed a little! … [Read more...]

I love Fall!

Just some decorations I put up yesterday for fall. I don't have much....so don't laugh! There are scarecrows hiding in that fake grass. :-D We went to Lowe's the other night to get ideas for the front yard and ended up getting a few plants for the indoors. I love how a little greenery brightens up a room! … [Read more...]

Home Sweet Home (but with pictures)

Our house now feels more like a home! After almost two months of sitting in a corner in the living room, our pictures finally found homes on our walls. It was feeling a bit bare, and driving me crazy! So I force-I mean, asked Rory to help me hang them up. He did a great job at eyeballing it. We have more plans for the living room, like curtains and … [Read more...]

New chair and finished projects

Well...I feel like a broken record. No baby....STILL. It's mildly frustrating. Wait, it's EXTREMELY frustrating and I feel like crying every time I think about it. haha. Not. Really, it stinks just waiting around when you don't feel like doing anything. Very boring. So last night for our anniversary we headed up to San Jose to get...a glider for … [Read more...]

Nursery…ooooooh

Strap yourselves in! Here's a tour of the (almost) finished nursery! I say almost cause we still don't have blinds, or a glider (which is going in that empty corner), or both closet doors. Pretty close still! From the door shot. Her crib and birdie art! (and blanket that the wall color was based on) Her cute hide and go seek art that I found way … [Read more...]

The kitchen is (almost) finished!

Really, all we have left to do is get our microwave, which is supposed to be next week. On our 5 year anniversary. Also we may be in the hospital. Oh well, I'm over it. haha. Here are some lovely pictures of our brand new kitchen...my dream kitchen. I can't believe they got it done so fast! Here is a before shot so that you can see the FULL … [Read more...]

I think I’m nesting.

Because all of a sudden I just HAD to organize all of my loose recipes into binders. Even though it took me like 2 hours and I'm really tired now...there was no stopping me! I just turned on Shark Week and went to town. (which is weird also cause sharks scare me)I went to the doctor yesterday and she said I was only 1, maybe 1 1/2 centimeters … [Read more...]
