Winnie the Pooh Theme for Nursery Room

January 19th, 2012

Aren’t these new curtains cute? They are from Auntie Vanessa and Uncle Otis. When I received them from the baby shower – I had to put them up right away the next day. It totally matches his room with all the other Winnie the Pooh stuff. Everything’s gotta match in my world right? If little Jayden was a girl – I would of ordered those personalized wall art for girls – but he’s a boy and there’s not much choices out there. I feel like there’s so much crafty/artsy stuff to do with girls instead of boys. Soon he’ll be growing out of the Winnie the Pooh theme and wants the Cars theme. Meanwhile – let’s just enjoy the cute Winnie the Pooh theme for now until he gets old and wants to pick his own things.

Wall of collage in Nursery Room

January 19th, 2012

Pictures pictures & more pictures! Yes – frames and photo albums are my addictions! If ya follow my blog – you would know how crazy I can get! Anyways – I purchased this package of photo frames from WalMart at $10+tax and this package includes 10 photo frames. You can either hang it up or put it on a shelve. I wanted to hang things in the Nursery Room for the little guy – so that’s why I picked this up. By the way – his room is the only walls left for me to hang stuff!

Finally all hung up – no pictures yet. These frames is the cheaper versions of the IKEA ones but at least when it falls and breaks – I won’t be too hurt because it’s inexpensive. I can’t wait to put pictures on these frames! Do you have a wall of collage pictures too? Share it with me!

Owning our First Home

January 18th, 2012

We don’t plan to own a house anytime soon – our plan is within the next couple years before the kid enters Kindergarten. That’s when we will start looking for a house. It’s not easy looking for a house for us because we have so much expectations. Well – especially me because I’ve been watching too much of “The Real Housewives” shows and man – their houses are huge and gorgeous. I don’t ever think we’ll find the perfect home for the three of us. We live in a pretty good neighborhood right now with nearby grocery stores, malls, and restaurants. It’s going to be really hard finding a perfect home. I do not only want to find a home just for us – in the future – we plan to live with his parents as well. I just believe that they took care of my husband for so many years and there’s a point in life to take care of them back. But we still want our freedom for the next 10 years – so we were thinking about living with them in the future – just a part of giving back.

Housing for seniors is not bad too but it would be nice to have family members around right? I’ve become to love my in-laws a lot. Some say – if you love your husband – you would love everything around him. His family is a part of me now – they are my family too. I’m grateful that I have such understanding in-laws. I’ve been getting along with them ever since I moved in with the hubby.

Mom Pendant Necklace from People Jewelry

January 18th, 2012

No – I didn’t receive this from my son yet! But I do hope to receive a beautiful necklace that says “mom” on it one day. I wonder how thoughtful this kid will be when he’s all grown up right? I for sure know that my husband isn’t a thoughtful son for sure! He never thought about getting a “mom” necklace for his mom. I gave him this idea to get it for her for Christmas. Will his brother, him & I chipped in for this necklace for a Christmas present.

Why aren’t men that thoughtful? I wonder if I need to hint my son in the future to get me this or not. But I rather he put the effort and thoughts into getting me this instead of me hinting him though. When my mother-in-law received this necklace – she was thrilled and happy. I mean – who wouldn’t be? I would too – if I receive this one day from the little guy.

I haven’t decided on what to bake yet but when February hits – I’ll be thinking about it. Another thing is – I’m going to be getting my other half a ecg machine for this Valentine’s day.
