A Baby Shower Amidst the CHAOS

by

For some reason, I thought it would be a good idea to plan a baby shower and remodel my living room on the same weekend. It wouldn’t have happened this way if things had gone as planned. But we love entertaining, and I wasn’t about to let an inch of dust and power tools all over my living room prevent my from hosting a parTAY! I mentioned on yesterday’s post about removing the living room wall ... [ Read More ]

WALL BE GONE!

by

HOLY INSANE WEEKEND OF CRAZYTOWN MADNESS!!!! I’ve been struggling in my head with how exactly I’m going to fit everything… So many pictures and thoughts to organize neatly into one post! I’ll just get right to the point… first (and most importantly), the wall came a’tumblin’ down. Here are a few process photos so you can understand the full extent of what we got ourselves into! Nick and his dad ... [ Read More ]

Garage Sale Romp

by

Hey guys… Last weekend, Nick’s family came to ‘help remove our living room wall’. As you know, it turned out we had a lot of free-time. This worked out well for Diane and I, because we just took off with the girls to go garage-saling on Saturday morning! It was a very successful garage sale romp. I found tons of good stuff, and just yesterday got a chance to go through all my treasures. I found ... [ Read More ]

Secretary {Part 2} ~ LAYERED Stenciling (you heard me!)

by

Wowzer… whatta morning. We got up at 6. I washed sippy cups and got their milks ready while Nick emptied the dishwasher. Babes woke up at 6:30, and drank their milk while Nick and I sipped our coffee and gazed lovingly into each other’s bloodshot eyes. Nick gives all of us girls kisses and is out the door at 7. Babes read books and play catch with the ball, and then go down for naps at 7:30 ... [ Read More ]

Wall Disappointments {and explanations}

by

Ugh, where do I even start. The wall: It’s still there. I was SO excited for it to be gone after this weekend. And if you follow along on our Facebook Page, you know good and well that we had a terrible disappointment… preventing us from following through on our big plan to remove the wall that separates our living room from our dining room. You see, it’s a loadbearing wall. But that was fine, ... [ Read More ]

Sleeping Therapy, Flower Girls, Wall Removing Anticipation, ADD

by

I won’t name any names or anything (PAISLEY!), but a certain child of mine does not sleep anywhere but her crib. Don’t get me wrong… she’s a great sleeper. Always has been. Girlfriend has slept through the night since the day she was born. But being dependent on her OWN crib in her OWN nursery can present a problem at certain times. (Say for example, you take a impromptu weekend trip to ... [ Read More ]

Random things…

by

Can’t help but love these cool mornings. I’m a lover of socks and hoodies, and usually utilize them off and on throughout the summers… but not this summer. This summer I’ve been found barefoot and in scandalous cami’s, standing in front of the open freezer. So as you can imagine, these brisk fall mornings are welcome here. The girls are sleeping in later these days, now that it’s staying dark ... [ Read More ]

Welcome SHABBY APPLE!

by

Ooo ooo! I was totally going to post about a SA-WEET dresser that we just finished, but I just couldn’t hold back from introducing Sawdust and Embryos’ newest sponsor… SHABBY APPLE!! I’ve always loved this company’s gorgeous vintage-y classic style, and when they contacted us about partnering up with them… I was super stoked! Is it still ok to say ‘stoked’ now that I’m in my 30’s? I’m a ... [ Read More ]
