http://www.fawnandforest.com/ anything from this website is lovely!!!! i think I am going to order the owl wall clock!!!

I have been browsing Etsy

I have been online looking for cool nursery finds. We have like 60 days to go before he arrives!!! We have decided to re-paint the nursery b/c the color is just too purple for our liking, I will try and post some house progress shots soon!!!
Right now we are off to the lake for 2 weeks:)

Our House Before Pictures

We moved in on April 1st and these are the pictures of our house BEFORE we began to re-vamp it and make it our own. My husband has been working really really hard doing lot's of painting, prepping, baseboards, lighting etc. I feel like it will be awhile before I can post after pictures but I am thinking I may post some during pictures just for a sneak peak into what we are up to!!!
This past week we had 2 sets of visitors my mother and then our good friends Dave & Laurel. It is hard to know what to do with company here because I still have no idea what to do around town. Downsizing from a city of 250,000 to a town of 5000 is a BIG change!!!! I am adjusting pretty well so far!

July 6th

WOW It's already July 6th. I have been on summer holidays for almost one week now. I am currently awake at 5:00 a.m. because I just cannot sleep for some reason. I am sooo out of whack it is not even funny. I am feeling really big and uncomfortable. I went for a walk last night and had to come back within 25 minutes because I had to pee. I cannot believe this baby will be here in roughly 8 weeks. I think that is why I am wide awake because I am in full on nesting mode now.
1. If anyone knows where to buy this Deer crib duvet please let me know!!!
2. The black mirror is similar to one I purchased recently...my hubby is gonna kill me!!!!! We are having a bit of an aesthetic battle in the new house...love him dearly but he likes cheap and easy. Me on the other hand I love different unique maybe not so cheap. I think he gets frustrated because all of my DIY ideas involve him doing the majority of the work:)
3. I want to refinish a glider for the nursery.......HOW this will happen now that I live in the boonies is beyond me.
I will post pics of our house is progress as soon as I find my usb cord for my point and shoot.

1st official day In Meadow

I arrived here in Meadow tonight around 5:30. It is now 3;30 a.m. and I cannot sleep so i am online looking for bathroom decor inspiration. I can't find much at all. i am looking to paint 3 bathrooms and I would like to do something different. I painted this new house all different shades of Gray and I am ready to POP the bathrooms with some fun and color.
While browsing online I found a baby monitor that I am interested in and a wall color I like.....that is it, that is all.
It was hard leaving my mom today. We have seen each other sooo much over the past few months. I lover her so much and I hate being away from her. I guess we will have to just make lots of visits and lots of phone calls and maybe a trip (or 2) away together every year.
I am going back to Saskatoon on Saturday so it was not a HUGE goodbye or anything. I am transitioning out of Toon slowly so I think that is a good thing. I hope this blog turns into more of an account of my new life as we have a lot of new things happening around here.
I better run and try and get some sleep!
Night....or shall I say morning???
