Jeff's Upcoming Projects

Now, that I know that Jeff is game to make more furniture for our future nursery. I have been looking online to see different designs that I like.

I want Jeff to build a changing table that matches the crib. I found this one on Restoration Hardware Baby + Child. I like that the footing matches the crib. The only modification that I would like is doors instead of drawers. I think that shelving with doors would be a better way to organize diapers, wipes, lotion, etc.

I also found this rocking horse on RH's website! Isn't it cute?! I think I want Jeff to paint it white to match the crib and changing table. I also think I want to find some fabric that matches our bedding for the seat.

This toy chest is also perfect for our nursery! Again, a few modifications would be necessary. I want the footing to match the crib and I want to make a cushion for the top to sit on that matches Matthew's bedding.

Looks like Jeff is going to be busy! He swears these projects will be much easier than building the crib. Now, all we need is our house, so that Jeff can have a workshop!

Mom's Hair Session!

My mom came in to school to be my model a few months ago. We refreshed her color, trimmed her ends and styled her out! I apologize Mom, but I have to show the before picture. (I told her not to do anything with her hair and to wear absolutely NO makeup). However, I don't feel too bad, she looks pretty damn good for having no makeup on!!!

Movin' Movin' Movin'

Matthew has been doing so well with his "tummy time" lately! He is so determined to crawl. He rolls over sometimes, but he is more motivated to get a toy that is out of reach. He kicks his legs and moves his arms and sometimes they both move together to push him forward. I posted pictures in sequence to show him moving. I would have posted a video, but it usually takes a couple of minutes for him to reach his toy...and I don't think blogger allows that much video!
Hey Momma.
Oooh, my favorite toy.
Reaching....
Got it! Yay!

Extreme Makeover!

My sister-in-law, Julie, told me that she wanted an "extreme makeover" for her hairstyle. I was so excited at the chance to do some major highlighting (my favorite!) and create a cute summer style for Julie. Here is the before picture...
And after...

Doesn't she look sexy? That is what I am all about...sexy hair.

5 Months

Look at what a big boy Matthew is! And, can you honestly tell me that he looks nothing like me? Come on! I see myself in him all the time. I have to admit this boy has me wrapped around his little finger. They say there is a special bond between a mother and her little boy...I completely agree. I love my Mr. Man.
