Choices

We had a GREAT weekend! I have some of the CUTEST pictures of Aiden by the sunflowers. Wes is going to work his magic on them before I post, but omg SO CUTE! He was quite funny too. Bella and Carlos were both scared of the bumblebees regardless how many times I said they were friendly bees and there goes Aiden no fear trying to catch one. lol Then for some pictures I wanted him to touch the flower....which in his mind meant eat the flower. haha HILARIOUS! Don't worry I got some pictures of that. Never a dull moment. :-)

But we learned what to do next year. Bring more props (just brought a step this time), a blanket and entertainment for the ones not taking pictures or they will run wild. lol But overall a very good result! So happy! This time I put him in a white polo, but I'm thinking next year a brown to make it more fally.

I accomplished a project off my list. Finished Brody's bed skirt. A $3 project! Go me! Then added another project to my list. haha But this one should be simple. Just need Grande to cut some limbs 1.5-2 inches thick. But here's my inspiration/vision:
Total cost...Free! Compared to the inspiration price tag of $99 bucks! Helps to have everything on hand. Using the same craft paint used on the tree and re-using fallen limbs from a bad storm. Very eco friendly of me! lol

Now all my savings can go into a nice rug. Since this room will eventually be a playroom I want it to withstand 2 wild boys without screaming nursery rug. It took me all weekend to find one and I'm in love! Can't wait for it to come in!! I saw it on Project Nursery blog in blue and headed over to Overstock and ek there was a green. LOVE and under $200!!
Next to do. Hang my ABC print over the dresser and clean out the closet so we can get the organizer installed next month. Slowly coming together. While Wes is working on that I'm going to declutter the house. Why does it feel like I'm constantly doing this?!?!

1st reorganizing the living room book shelves, then attacking the coat closet. It's currently home to all my gift wrap supplies, but now needs to store the vacuum and shark mop who's current home is Brody's closet. Which brings me to my next project. Sense a pattern? lol I saw this inspiration and it would go perfect on our linen closet door! Plus, no drilling involved so if we ever move it can come with us! I love that!
