Hello friends! Just popping in for an update. (Someday my blog won't be reduced to me just occasionally popping in for updates. But for now it is what it is.) 

It's hard to believe that in just a few weeks I'll be saying adios to my office job to start my new life as a stay at home mom. It's a transition that has me just a little freaked out at the moment, but I'm looking forward to it none-the-less. With this transition just around the corner, I'm realizing that I need to start getting serious about Baby Girl's room (and about a million other things-including Lynn David).

I'm a list person. I have to have things written out and visualized or I get super wishy-washy and overwhelmed. So I started a mood board for her room. It has helped SOOOO much! It started with a visit to Kuler to get my color scheme going. And that got the ball rolling. Here's what I've got so far:



So what do you think? I was a little shocked to see a certain theme going...butterflies!? Not sure where that came from - we'll see if those little critters actually end up finding their way into her room. If you see anything on the web that "goes" with Baby Girl's room don't be shy! Leave me some links (and some feedback) in the comments!

PS- Project "office makeover" is almost complete! Pictures soon!

Inspiration

There's something about this picture that just beckons me to stop and take it in. I just stare at it. Maybe because it makes me want to go throw on a taffeta dress and join them on their stroll. Or is it the lightness in their step? The stately dogs? The black and white? Is it just the whole romantic 1950's ambiance?

Or maybe it's that I can picture one of my pleated clutches nestled discreetly under her arm. Of course! Now I know just what it is about that photo...inspiration.
