Nursery - As of 122113

I am so excited with how Brooklyn's nursery is coming together! I just need a rocking chair, and I have my eye on a little diddy just need to get it ordered. I feel like all I talk about lately is baby girl but I just can't help it!! I got this adorable pillow and headband for her yesterday. Along with the most adorable swaddle blanket. The pillow is from TJ Maxx and the headband and blanket in the crib are from The Quilted Bear.

Mirror

Doing a little stop by Hobby Lobby with Gina yesterday they had all mirror's 50% off! I could not resist. I originally had a place in mind for the little guy above our TV but when I got home, I changed my mind. I wish I could cover all my walls in framed mirrors, they are just so pretty and open up the room.

That wall feels a little naked now. I want to get two matching rod cook book holders for each side, or two long picture frames. Any thoughts? Also I want to do half the wall white and frame it and the top half gray.

Just A Quick Thought

Last night I was walking around our neighborhood and heard a loud ruckuss (spell check?) I looked over and it was a family of birds living inside someones vents. It was so loud, you could hear their wings clapping, the babys chirping and the sound of them coming in and out just brought me back to when we first moved into our last apartment.
Man that was miserable! Reminds me of THIS post.

So Happy Its FRIDAY! 2 nights ina  row with not enough sleep means I'll be spending a ton of time in bed this weekend. Yawn. :)

My New Hire trainer sent me a pic of my on my first day of work

Here at SelectHealth

Look at those locks! Sad face.

I've always told you I'd share a rap with you.

So here you go, I wrote this as a joke for a thingy at my work.

Lets just say, it never aired. haha.



Divorce / Happiness / Challenge

It is so weird to constantly hear talk about all these people who have been married for short periods of time getting divorced. And yes mostly by people I mean celebrities. BUT I do know some real life people too.

Did you know that Russel Brand filed for the big DEE-vorc-ay from Katy Perry??
Dont ask me why I'm so shocked. 

However if you were asking in your head, I'll answer.. I'm shocked because they seemed kinda like they were good for each other. Too bad. 

The celeb couple I'd be SUPER duper shocked if divorced is this cute little couple.

Maybe its cause I follow them on facebook and they are always so cute.

Today was just straight up Happiness.
Work was great. Helping people made my day. And after work I went to Michaels to get stuff for my challenge thing a majigg and then to Chic-Fil A for din-din. ANND the Lady at the drive up window said:

"you're like really pretty"

Whether or not it was a joke, it made my day x 2!
The reason I feel it was a joke is cause I came home, looked in the mirror, expecting to see a golden goddess, and I saw this...

Also, I put up shelves my step mom got me for Christmas and I freakin love it!
Adds a little spunk to my walls.

Of course I'm also happy that its the weekend.

Another 3 day weekend! HOLLAA!!!

Challenge Update.. I dont think I'll complete this. SAD face!

If not finish, I know I'll get close.

Today I cross off number 9!

1. Sand/Paint side table.

2. Take 200 pictures in one day.

3. Try one work out pin from pinterest.

4. Try one new recipe from pinterest.

5. Make someone's day.

6. Buy something online.

7. Print pictures for album/finalize pages for wedding scrapbook.

8. Have a date night with myself.

9. Make something cool and crafty.

10. Write about something important to me.

So I just got some supplies from Michaels:

 Rings the size I wanted my dream catcher to be.

Suade string in the color of my liking.

Everything else I found just lying around. 

I started by putting a dab of hot glue on the ring and placed the string over it.

Then started to wrap it around so no ring shows.

After it was all covered I took some twine and tied a knot.

Then went to another side of the ring and tied a knot. 

I proceeded around the ring till I got back to where I started.

Then I just started to go at random angles to make it like a web.

There were more specific dircetions to make it look more like a star

but I just went crazy.

Turned out Okay if you're not too particular!

I then just added some charms and feathers I had laying around.

And put a chain on it for a necklace look. I may take the chain off and just hang it in my car

or by my bed to catch the bad dreams :)

Over all this was a pretty fun project.

Simple too. Cost: $9!!

 

Have a great last couple days of 2011!
