Pretty Little Things
First, oh my goodness, this.
A longtime RG reader, Rebecca (who blogs about home decor here and about parenting here), sent over one of the sweetest, most touching gifts I've ever received in my life: a painting with one of my favorite quotes (that's a line from Tom Waits' 'Ol' 55') for my son's room, and another with an Aerosmith quote for our daughter's nursery (which is still in progress; I'll show you when we're done!).
I love it.
Ok To Wake “Alarm” Clock = Very Good Thing
OK, so the transition to the Big Boy Bed was a necessary one - our crib is going to get called into action in a few months, and regardless, he couldn't stay in a crib forever - but was not without its mini-bumps. Mostly the mini-bump involving a child who has suddenly discovered that...hold on a second...he can TOTALLY GO ADVENTURING WHENEVER HE WANTS.
Hanging out in the hallway while a blissfully unaware Mom watches Walking Dead downstairs? Oh yeah.
Down to chill on the couch with some dinosaurs at three AM?! Done.
Into mom and dad's room just to say what's up at five??!!! YES PLEASE.
New Mama Events & Discoveries
With MomTrends founder Nicole Feliciano
Lately I've been attending a few mom-related events, which has resulted in the making of a couple of neat mom-related discoveries.
This Kid
We have discovered the joy that is hiding underneath couch cushions. (The execution could still use a little work.)
