I am really ready to take this year on! I am getting back into a great routine after all the holiday fuss. Back to pilates class tomorrow [and its probably going to kick my butt] & I got my toddler potty trained in literally a week, that already feels like a huge accomplishment for this year.

 I have been getting things organized [slowly but surely] and getting little things done around our house to make it more homey and more of our personal "touch". We painted our bedroom, and are starting the bathroom this week. It really is amazing what a little paint can do for a room.
I can't wait to get everything back into our room and give it a new little mini makeover. Right now it feels so empty with even our dresser still camped out in the family room.
Hopefully things will be back to normal by this coming weekend.



I found this little wooden book shelf in our attic, left here by the previous owner. Its nothing special, but I thought a nice paint job wouldn't hurt & it was FREE, so why not use it?!
I have been wanting a great YELLOW piece to really pop in our dining room & I think this will do. I have only cleaned it so far, tomorrow I hope to prime it.

Just had to add this in: I was reorganizing my jewelry and jewelry box today.. I absolutely love my earring holder from Urban Outfitters . Doesn't it make my earrings look fabulous?! & if I remember correctly it was only like $10!!
