Wheel of Responsibility

An awesome baby shower gift. Leave diaper duty, bottle warming and story time up to fate with the Wheel of Responsibility.

MASH

Mansion, Apartment, Shack, House...Who will you marry?...How many kids will you have?

If you grew up when I did, then you must remember MASH! And now, a whole new generation can enjoy it...where else but on their iPhone. The MASH app is waiting for you and you can even draw the spiral at the end and it will count out your future - just like we all did with pencil and paper!

Of course you can still do MASH the old fashioned way, but as with everything else nowadays...they have an app for that now.

Growth Chart

Here we grow again! I have been on the hunt for a growth chart for my boys for a while now...& I think I've finally found THE one!

This Tree Growth Chart by Scribble on Everything is perfect! Sadly, I am not growing anymore, but my boys sure are and so I'm ready to mark away!

Word Search

Since I'm in my wall decal phase, this caught my eye.

Perhaps a custom one with words for my boys to find? Very cool. Word.

Funky Lunch

Kick lunchtime up a notch with these fab ideas from Funky Lunch! Help them get the book out there and get inspired to make lunch Funky!

Word Books

Genius right? The photos above were done by Miss Party Perfect Herself, Sara Hicks Malone!

There are several versions out there and I think it's such a perfect idea! I really wanted to make one for mr. red before I popped - so that he could refer to it while we were at the hospital, but as with many other items on the to-do-list, it just didn't get done. And then I popped ;)

But I'm still determined to make one for him. He loves it when he recognizes items that he has in print or on the computer so a word book would be PERFECT! You can use scrabble letters or cut-outs and choose your little one's favorite items to photograph! Then upload and create a book via the vast amount of photo book retailers and e-tailers out there!

Bodalee Trees

We're almost done re-doing the nursery / toddler room. And one of the first things off our list was to add some decals to the walls. Mr. Red's room is painted a Tiffany Blue so when I saw these modern tree decals, I knew it would work perfectly! Bodalee's Trees are an awesome addition! Mr. Red loves the animals, though he would prefer to see some skateboarding decals as well.

I'll post pics once the room is done.

Toy Box

I've been on the hunt for a sleek, clean, modern toy box for mr. red's room. And to my surprise, there are hardly any out there! But I did stumble upon this fabulous shop by mod mom - and her toy boxes are truly just that, fabulously mod!

The hubby and I absolutely love the Owyn Toy Box, however, it's a bit beyond our budget.

So the brilliant hubby came up with a very cool solution! We found a pretty sleek, minimal, natural wood toybox at target with clean lines for only $49.99! And so he suggested we get that and then stick decals on it! So it resembles the mod look of the Owyn Toy Box! Genius right? I'm just ashamed I didn't think of it myself.

So I have a new project and will post pics once it's done.
