My Little Artist…
Here is a sample of my very talented daughter who is now only twelve years old! I am so proud of her, she works hard everyday to bring artwork to life through her love of wolves. This is just one speed drawing per request of a fan!

Redecortating with Crib Bedding
I was doing some shopping for a new set of crib bedding since I wanted to brighten up my little one’s room. Not only do I love finding the best baby furniture but, designer decor for the nurseryI came up with some really great choices including the creative sets by DucDuc. Bold colors with cool patterns. This will give the room some pop and, add a little brightness to the impending darkness of winter. I painted the walls a light yellow which will add a touch of sunshine. Yes, I am holding onto summer as long as I can. I think I may be spending more time in this room! If you are looking for some really great ideas in changing up the baby’s room decor, Babybox.com is a great place to visit!

Don’t Forget!
I have been out surfing a lot lately with the family, and, spending quite a bit of time on the beach. This is the only time that my husband and I take off our wedding rings. We have lost them in the ocean before and, didn’t want it to happen again. But, last weekend he did it again. He forget to leave his ring at home and, of course lost it in the water. I think this is the second time he lost it. Luckily I buy the titanium mens wedding bands to replace it. These are not only tough but, affordable. So, next time we hit the surf I am going to have double check his ring finger!

It’s Going Every Where I Go!
Being a very active person, I was always fighting with ways to take my little ones on the go. Not just on the sidewalk, or malls but, on trails and, rough terrain. I think I went about three different types of strollers until I came across the Bugaboo Strollers that I totally love! This thing rocks! It will go anywhere! I took it on a trail hike with me with the little one in tow and, she ended up just falling asleep. Needless to say I will have this stroller where ever I end up! I’m thinking taking it down to the beach next!

My Solution for Shopping for Baby Gifts!
Why is it so difficult to pick out baby gifts? I have had the hardest time trying to depict a baby shower registry at Target the other day! First off, I stood in that registry machine line for about thirty minutes while some lady was reading each and every item on a list! Then I couldn’t remember what name my girlfriend was listed on, and, by the time I figured out the stupid machine another twenty minutes went by! So, we are talking almost an hour has gone by since I parked the car and, reluctantly fell into the registry line! Now it was off to find the items that weren’t already picked through on her list! And, of course they were out of the stuff that was left on her list! Great! I don’t think I stormed out of that store so fast! Two and a half hours, still no baby gift! Okay! That was it! I promised myself never again. I will do online shopping for these gifts for now on! The good thing is I probably out did every baby gift at that shower on Sunday! My baby shower gifts were the most unique and, clever baby gifts there! And, I picked them up at Mamabebe.com! Yay!

I Think She’s Coming Around!
I went to the park with my daughter the other day to hang out and, watch her play. I can’t believe how big she is getting. There were plenty of mom’s there with their little kids all dressed up cute in trendy little baby clothes and all. I like to see little kids dressed up all hip. My daughter loves her cut off shorts and t-shirts with flip flops. This is all I can get her to wear these days. She’s pretty much a tom boy type, but, that’s okay with me. I just hope she likes some of the hip little clothes I picked out for her for shcool. Last year she did’nt wear half of what I bought her! But, I think she’s coming around because she put in a pair of cute earrings this morning!

How Creative!
There is so much more to buying baby gifts when it comes to showers. I have always given my friends and, family something that they can hold onto for baby and, cherish it. A keepsake if you will. One of my favorite ideas came from Mamabebe.com online. I bought a little t-shirt that is bejeweled with a tiara and the child’s name. This was such a hit at my sister’s shower, everyone wanted one for their little girl! Check out all the great Personalized Baby Gifts and, see how creative you can be!

Anything For Baby!
Who does’nt love babies? I know I have such a soft spot for anything baby. I have to admit even when I go to the mall I always stop by the baby section and check out all the new baby clothes, baby toys, crib bedding and, tiny little shoes! I can’t help myself. It blows me away when I start thinking of that I actually had two little ones myself! I can’t imagine them being so tiny! Now that they are grown up and, much taller than me I might add, it’s almost impossible for me to remember they actually fit into that stuff! Well, now what I can do is look forward to the day, they have their own little ones! Then I can start buying all this cute stuff again!

How Much to Start Up a Club?
When you are out in public let’s say a night out at a dance club, you may not notice all that goes into running one of these joints. The permits, insurance, lease etc. Who can say how much goes into decor even the commercial lighting has to be up to code. There has to be ways to cover this on a budget with resources out there that cater to quality materials and products at good prices! I was just wondering how much goes into a place like this, if I were start up my own club!

An Exciting Time!
What is more fun than decorating for a new baby! With all the great stuff out there in the market, I wish I saw this when I was expecting. Now that my sister is expecting I can reap the joy of helping her choose crib bedding, cute little baby clothes and, toys! I showed her this baby set for the nursery and, she fell in love with it! It’s called the sugarcubes bedding paddywhacks by Nurseryworks. It’s perfect for a boy or girl and, will go great with her whole theme. She is more of the contemporary type and, so this will compliment the rest of her household. We are so excited! The nursery is coming along and, she is due anytime! I can’t wait to meet my new little niece or nephew!
