Creating A Pretty & Simple Life
I am loving this star theme for the nursery. I think it is turning out to be a great neutral way to add some fun to the room for my Westley and his little sister. I can’t believe we only have 40 days left! Ahhh! So to continue with our nursery themed htgawcrafting challenge, I wanted to add some star wands as decoration. I thought
After fighting my asthma for the past week, and going to the ER, I finally got some good news. Baby Girl Finch’s delivery dates has been scheduled! I’m so excited! I’m also realizing I need to get moving on updating the nursery. I originally planned on overhauling the entire room so it would be cream and gold. But after looking at Westley’s rainbow mobile to inspire
Okay, so being that I’m at 32 weeks I wanted to get things ready for Baby Girl Finch. This month and next month, the htgawcrafting challenge will mostly be dedicated to awesome nursery DIYs. This one was inspired by two projects I’ve done previously. When I was designing my son’s room, I knew I wanted to make a black & white mobile for him. I remembered
This weekend I had the chance to exchange tips and tricks with a fellow mom about potty training and bottle weaning. She shared her success stories about potty training, and I shared mine about bottle weaning. I was so excited to share with her, I thought, why not post it here as well. Below is my journey through the world of bottle weaning which led me to
Happy 2016! I am so excited for this new year! Don’t get me wrong, 2015 was rather interesting. My family found out that we’re adding Baby Girl Finch to our nest. My sister got to live in South Korea for the past 9 months. My dad finally has his head on straight about a few things. My husband landed a great new job and I started
With the third trimester knocking at my door, I’ve decided I need to start my pregnancy pampering routine again. Between the heartburn, the aches and pains and the return of morning sickness, I need to be pampered. But spa days and pedicures can get a little pricey. My husband and I realize we have to be financially smarter with a second kid coming, so spa days have been cut for
With 2016 right around the corner, I’m all about sprucing up my office with a new look. I decided to look for some inspiration on Instagram and I wasn’t disappointed. Here’s is the pretty Instagram pic from Brit+ Co that sparked my creativity. I loved the idea of using pretty confetti to decorate my desk accessories especially to ring in the new year. After reading the
I’ve been wanting to do something with Westley’s window for awhile now. I really haven’t done much with his nursery since he was born. So tonight I had the chance to change things up a bit. Lately, Wes has really been attached to his little night light. I thought I would kick it up a notch and turn his entire window into a night light —
So we start to miss of friends and family around this time of the year – especially people who are so far away. Right now my sister is living in South Korea and I miss her terribly. I also miss one of my good friends from SoCal. So tonight’s challenge is going to be about doing something, not because of the holidays, but because I
So with a new year comes a new look. I’ve already changed up the look of my planner, my desk accessories and my baby bump definitely is giving me a new look in the new year! I also want a new look for my phone. So I thought, my buy one when I can DIY it for tonight’s #htgawcrafting challenge. So I decided on a
