I’m hosting a color blocked, graphic celebration over here today …
The fun never ends when the sun is shining and you’ve got a slushie by your side.

Many of you have asked about our nursery … a seasonal work in progress. I know you don’t really need a nursery right away {just a drawer I’m always told!} but when I imagine dealing with buying and decorating a nursery post baby, well let’s just say I’d rather cuddle. So after getting all our major pieces delivered (crib, changer, rocker) we’re coming in at about 70%, which is up 5% from last week.
That’s not too bad with 2+ weeks to go, right?
In the meantime, I thought I’d share some of the cute prints I’ve been buying off Etsy. My favorite is this “Let’s Hug it Out” from Laura Berger. Perhaps a lesson we should all learn, no?

It all started with this retro glider. Picturing myself and our new baby sitting outside on the balcony—he tucked into his new mamaroo, me sipping fresh lemonade in a moment of peace—I was instantly hooked on re-decorating. I dreamed of green and yellow; of flowers in planters and summertime smells mixed together with a dollop of sun.
Well, reality does have an ugly way of creeping in and I can’t help but wonder when I’m going to make this happen. In the next two weeks before he’s born? Hmm … I think not. So where does that leave me? Well, how about I start with this planter and then go from there. Baby steps, literally, but movement.
