We recently had our master bathroom professionally remodeled, which was amazing. Really amazing. When someone says the demo in your bathroom was the worst they’ve seen in 15+ years of construction, you say, “Thanks for being here!” and count your lucky stars you weren’t doing the demo yourself. Someday soon, when I master the use of a…

Room for Our Little Guy
I wanted to post this the week before our smallest family member was born, but between working full-time and being extremely pregnant, that fell through the cracks pretty spectacularly. The fun thing about posting now is that I can show you Tuck’s room after it has been initiated. The walls have been peed on more than once, and the…
Back Room Blues (Good Blues)
A little while back (and for a while, really), I was debating room color choices for our second to last major space in need of paint. Whew. There has been a lot of painting in our house in the last year and a half. Where did we start? We started with stained peach walls. Very…

Wall Color: Random Room Edition
We’ve painted almost every room in our house. Almost. At this exact moment, the number of rooms we have painted is 7, and the remaining number is 4. One of the unpainted rooms shouldn’t really count, however, because the total paintable space is minimal–maybe ten square feet. Anyway, we’re ignoring the largest of the remaining…
Party Time!
Yesterday was one of the most productive days at home I’ve had in… I don’t know, probably in years. It was great, and it ended with me falling asleep on the couch next to Peanut. Christmas tree lit, Miracle on 34th Street on in the background. It was good stuff. I never believed in Santa,…
Small, but valuable.
