Its Baby Madness!

Here is my little Jack. He is 4 weeks tomorrow. Happy anniversary to you. So of course here is a little shopping spree with the small ones in mind!

These adorable little elfin wooden creatures are sold out but are from Urastarhouse

but they have plenty of other cute little toys. Don't you think they look like my baby?

Look at this beautiful Turquoise Branch Quilt by Jewelweeds. This is sure to be a saved treasure for your little ones little one.

How cute is this Baby Blues Patch Hat by Bigalhats? Amazingly my son's head would be too small for this hat. My daughter and husband have large heads.

Really baby feet are super cute and these shoes are equally as cute. They are by LittleHuisMus.

Here is an adorable prop to photograph your little love. I thought about ordering one but then it was too late and I am really lazy lately. This cocoon is from BeachWalkPhoto. Get well BeachWalk!

Here is a sweet little plushie by PilliPilliHandmade. She has all kinds of whimsical items and they are for adults! Yeah!

I love how smooth the toys from littlesaplingtoys look. They make me want to pet them continuously.

The fun thing about being a parent is having the opportunity to dress your kid up in ridiculous outfits and hats. This hat falls in this category. I love this hat so much! I think I would actually squeal if I put it on either one of my children. Its by Dalinda.

OH BABY!

Here is a picture of my daughter about 5 days after she was born. Aren't little babies the funniest looking things ever...definitely a face a mother a could only ooh and awww about.

That being said...I wont be here for a little bit because I'm going in this morning for my C- Section. It is my little boy's official birthday out of the womb! I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

And yes please do lots of blogging so Ill have plenty to read when I get back!

House of Turquoise

Last week I found the most amazing blog called House of Turquoise. Now if you visit here you you know I love this color. I have been perusing this site for a week now. I go everyday...what can I say I'm a freak.

How amazing is this kitchen? The floor and island are just beautiful. The image is from Diamond Barratta.

This is a stairwell designed by Muriel Brandolini. LOOK at those super cool lanterns! Both of these pictures have yellow in the mix. I love yellow and turquoise together! Anyway, thank you Erin for taking the time to research all these amazing photos! Your Blog is delicious!

Les Violettes

Lately I have really been into purples. I think its because the last floral event I did was based on that color palette. So now that my real birthday is even closer and I wont be pregnant I keep thinking about my big four oooh! in February. So how fabulous would that bustier in purples from VintageOpulence be? I could do my hair all curly and crazy with these purple ribbons from JamnGlass.

These cards look fabulous!I have never tried quilling. It looks hard to do. They would make great invitations! They are from Dizzeelizzee.

Some purple floral inspirations from Bornay. Oh Bornay I never tire of your floral glories!

Now here are some new mixed purple colored poms from pomlove. I love your shop...I love your blog. These would be great hanging in my living room...heck they'd be great hanging in your living room.

Last is a gorgeous raspberry garnet ring. What a beautiful gift to me! Its from SingleBbeautiful.

So how fun would all of that be?

Now for the menu planning...but that is an entirely different post.

Baby Shower

Here are the remnants of my baby shower 2 weeks ago.

I'm terrible about getting things photographed especially if its a party at my house. I didn't have to cook. I only had to put the decorations together. This is why sometimes...most of the time new things in my shop take a while to materialize.

I made garlands with one of my block print parasols and left over papers. My husband printed its a boy on the back of the parasols in matching ink color.

I also made succulent arrangements to give away in saved glass bottles. These arrangements are 2 weeks old. I had 4 left over from 12.

I think they looked pretty good and still do. The succulents are starting to root. They are just hanging out in air. I didn't put them in any water. I thought the colors and arrangements were perfect for a boy. I'm thinking I should make a party pack for baby showers...you know invites,little tags, and garlands. What do you think? By the way thanks to all that came! This week I have to finish Thank Yous.

Even Children Need Fabulous Chairs

I was on the blog ThatsHappy by Lisa Rupp which by the way I love, and snagged this photo. She had some photos from the most adorable store MollyMeg. Its a design store for children. They obviously have the cutest mod and vintage styled chairs. I so need to invest in a stylish chair for my daughter and future son. I just love this photo! Be sure to check out Lisa's blog too. She has some really cool designs but then I'm a sucker for florals...but I'm sure you know that already.

One Cool French Dude

I snagged this photo over at the AvecEric blog. Last week he was on Martha's show. I was able to watch an episode of his new show on the blog as well. I'm not a seafood eater but he made me want to eat it. Anyway I totally dig him and he is on Top Chef a lot. He seems like a really cool french dude. He also has a section called GetToasted with recipes for a toaster oven. The One I adored the most was figs and bacon! Go check it out for some culinary inspiration.
