A New Look

I have to brag on my mom. She and my dad came to my house this weekend so that my mom could re-decorate my downstairs. It looks amazing! As Mike says, it feels as though we are living in a model house. For those of you that don't know, my mom is a school principal with a passion for interior decorating. She is really good and has an eye for color, fabric and accessories. She liked the color of our walls and started looking for things that would compliment that. She also made curtains, which look professional. She did this for Mike and I so that our house would look nice and clean after Will comes. She really wanted us to be proud to bring friends and family in to our home to show off our son. Thank you mom, we love our new living room and kitchen!


Here is our new love seat. Mom had it at her house and it fits better in our living room. It has already become Gracie's throne. (Notice the curtains, it makes the room look put together)


Our bookshelf from our office got a new home in the living room.


Our sideboard in the kitchen, if you look closely you will see that we no longer have the cluttered baskets. Doesn't it look nice and neat!


The same day that my mom was decorating, our neighborhood hosted a yard sale. While my mom was working inside, my dad and I were haggling with customers outside over our junk. I am proud to say that we made close to $300, all of which has gone to towards elements of the new look in our home.

Last week we went to pick up Will's crib and dresser. We are still waiting for the chair and ottoman, but they should be here any day. If anyone is looking for baby furniture we got ours at Baby Junction in Acworth. It is a small family owned store. They were cheaper than other places we looked and were also willing to make us a deal on really nice furniture. If you are in the market for baby furniture check them out! www.babyjunctionga.com
