It was a busy weekend!

Thank you to all that came by to visit me this past weekend at Wolf Fest at EP Rayzor Elementary and at the Lantana Ladies League Vendor's Bazaar at the Golf Club in Lantana. It was so much fun meeting some new ladies in my community. I had a great time sitting next to Mary-Kay from Keeps Me in Stitches and Valerie from Not So Plain Jane at Wolf Fest.

The Lantana Ladies League did a great job of organizing this years vendor's bazaar.

At the end of both events, I held a drawing for a Javis Davis tote in the winner's choice of fabrics. The winner was chosen in the most official and fair way I could possibly think of.

Please do not pay too close attention to my son's dirty fingernails.

Congratulations Tisha! I can't wait to hear what your favorite choice of fabrics are for your tote.

Skip Hop Pronto! Giveaway

When it was time for my son to start solid foods I was so excited to get out our brand spanking new highchair. As a first time rookie parent, I thought "why do we need to bother with these safety straps?", they seemed nothing more than a nuisance... a waste of time. So what did I do? I cut them off! Fast forward three months later and it was then that I realized that my now 9 month old could get himself into a precarious standing position, and maybe cutting off those straps was not such a great idea after all.

With my second baby I was so tired of worrying that she could fall head first out of the highchair so I decided it was time to look for something new. I
really wanted to try the Stokke Tripp Trapp. After searching the web for the best deal, I found CSNBaby offered the best price and shipping, so I bit the bullet and ordered the Tripp Trapp in Walnut.
All I can say is we
LOVE this highchair...it is well worth the $$$.

When CSNBaby (who carries everything from nursery furniture to toys) offered to sponsor a giveaway on this site I was all about it. I've ordered from them, and I know that their prices, customer service and shipping are great.

Soooooo, long story short, up for grabs is a Skip Hop Pronto! Changing Kit. The Pronto! is everything you need in one small portable package. Drop it in your bag, strap it to your wrist or clip it to your stroller and you’re good to go!

A Playroom Makeover, Part 1

It's been four years since we moved into our house and our neglected playroom needed a serious makeover. With shorter and cooler days approaching, I know that we will be spending more time in the playroom so I decided now is the time to get the ball rolling and get this room finished. Especially since we are now a two kid family which equals twice the junk... I mean toys!
My inspiration for the room came from this fabric (Apache Brick).
I was at Calico Corners one day shopping with a friend of mine and I was immediately drawn to the colors in this fabric. The colors are consistent with the rest of our house, and I thought it would look great in the playroom. I had my neighbor make a window cornice using this fabric, and I matched the wall color with the blue stripe. We used Benjamin Moore 2135-50, Soft Chinchilla.
As with most playrooms, we were in desperate need for additional storage so I was extremely happy to see this media center on sale at Pottery Barn Kids.It is normally $1,149.00, but is currently on sale for $689.99. What a deal! I've ordered it in Espresso to match the Espresso activity table that we already have. For additional toy storage, I have also purchased an inexpensive 5 ft long, two shelf bookcase from a local unfinished wood furniture store. I plan on painting the bookshelf a brick red color which I think will look great up against the blue walls.

To add a few finishing touches, I'm using floor pillows from Javis Davis in these fabrics.

Stay tuned for more details. Hopefully we'll get everything finished soon and I will post photos of the finished room.
