Wordless Wednesday: My Ty

SUYL: Kitchen Tour

Kelly is doing a home tour link-up for the 

next few months and I could not be more excited... 

As I have said before, I need some serious 

home inspiration before Baby B

 makes his grand entrance. 

So this week is kitchens. 

My kitchen is very plain jane, and I realized 

this even more after taking pictures... Bor-ing! 

When we got married, I registered for red, black, 

and white stuff so I have been pretty much stuck 

with that color scheme for the last, ooooh 8 years.  

So maybe I will use these as before pics for 

when I get inspired to redo it one day. :)

My red toaster is about on it's last leg. 

4 kids later, I'm thinking we need to 

upgrade to one of the 4 slicers.

When we first moved in, these tiles had some 

kind of apple, banana, fruit picture on them... not my thing so

the husband pulled them out and replaced 

them with simple black.

 

I heart my red teapot. 

Probably my favorite thing in the kitchen! 

Okay yes, that is a Christmas coffee cup

hanging out in our kitchen... 

in June... whoops.

A little picture crazy on the fridge... 

My boys and our nephews. (Goose's sister has 3 boys too-

 fraternal twins plus one more like us)

I don't notice everything about the art or appliances 

when I visit people's homes, but I do always seem to 

check out what's on the fridge. There is usually 

candid pictures or invites or interesting magnets... 

Always seems a little more personal than the regular decor :)

_____________________

So question for the day, what's on your fridge?

Any creative ideas for that space?

 Happy Friday! :) 

 

 

5 Lil Thoughts: Preggy McPregs

1. Pregnant Lily should not be allowed to read baby blogs 
or watch sappy commercials- I boohoo at this  
Pampers commercial every time I see it... 
ridiculous.

2. Pity Party Confession: Pregnancy does horrible things 
to my self-esteem. I am normally pretty okay with my looks... 
but now I see myself getting wider and wider with each 
passing day, my hair is greasy, and my skin is a mess... 

It makes me want to hide under a rock for the next 12 weeks.

I usually don't mind being short, but I am 
seriously envious of tall, long-legged women 
with their baby bumps... they can just carry the 
weight so well whilst I look like this by the end of it:

ughhh.

                                                                        

3. This baby is out of control...

Baby boy is a party animal- he never stops 

kicking and flipping and flopping around.

I love feeling him move, but I'm kinda hoping he won't 

be this hyper outside of the womb :) 

4. The Name Game

*I started looking at biblical names. I like Silas who was a companion of Paul in the Bible, and Elliott derives from Elijah which means "The Lord is my God."

*Ty calls the baby "she" and "her" no matter how many times I explain that it is a boy.

*Nolan is dead-set on the name "Yankee"... hilarious. 

*Reese has lovingly named the baby "Skip" and has been calling him that for about a week. 

*Goose still just vetoes everything I say.

5. Baby wearing:

So I am looking into getting a baby wrap 
or carrier this time around... 

I have never used one before, but I have already signed 
up for 5 art/craft shows this Fall for Sailor Studio,  
and I know it will be easier to have "Skip" on me then 
trying to deal with a stroller or car seat at the shows.  

That being said, I have no idea where to start when it 
comes to picking one out. I was looking at the  
Mobywrap website, but I am a little nervous about 
trying to put that thing on...

So any thoughts on baby wearing? Wrap/carrier Suggestions? 

   

Thanks!
