Jealousy Alert

So... I came home early from a friend's birthday celebration, hormonally pregnant, had the worst work week EVER, and just wish I could relax.  This needs to be my to-do list for the next month...

Fabric Lined Drawers

Refurbishing an old dresser is nice, but go further and line those drawers.  Because you can't seet it from the outside, get funky and creative.  The more color and pattern, the better!  Here are some super cute examples...

Rules for My Unborn Son

I love blog world!  I came across this one today and began crying (pregnancy hormones?).  To my surprise, I found out I was having a boy last week, and admittedly I've been going through a hard time.  I know God only gives us what we can handle, but since I found out I was pregnant I prayed for a little girl.  I wouldn't classify myself as a "feminist," but definitely a big supporter for women's rights and power.  I had always imagined having a daughter and teaching her to be a stronger, more independent woman than I am.  Today I randomly found Rules for My Unborn Son.  I couldn't stop reading it.  It was just what I needed.  I realized I can teach him to become the most polite, supportive, and respectful man towards women.  I can't wait and can only imagine how rewarding parenting a young gentlemen will be over the years.  Thank you, Walker Lamond.

Barbie's House by Jonathan Adler

If you are not inspired by this, then go to the doctor.  Something is severely wrong with you!  Jonathan Adler's Barbie Malibu House is beautiful.  How much to live here????






And all this started with her...

Shoes for Fall (and pregnancy)

I love all these shoes available at Piperlime.com.  I'm 20 weeks pregnant and ready for fall, so bring on the wedges.

Labor Day

Happy Labor Day everyone!!!  I needed this long weekend so badly.  An extra day of sleeping past 7AM, greasy Bojangles' biscuits, fun in the sun, movies, and shopping isn't what the doctor prescribed, but most certainly needed.  It's cloudy and rainy today in South Carolina so my mom and I got our beach day in yesterday at Sullivan's Island, near Charleston.  It rained in the afternoon so we packed up early and did some local sight seeing.  We uncovered some beautiful homes, hidden bridge views, and historical landmarks, notably Fort Moultrie.
