diy mania

i have to start out by saying that my dad did not like me posting about being "felt up" by debbie! "it must be a generational thing" is what he told me...well, this is a personal blog, where i am going to write about taboo preggo stuff that i'm experiencing, so if you can't take the heat....skip over it ;)

leslie and i were talking about this today, and we both agreed that women in the 70+ range are the most likely people to grab and caress your pregnant belly. i think this might be a "hunny, i've totally been there let me see that bump" thing, and as long as you don't mind, it is totally amusing. i think i would have minded in the early weeks, when my belly consisted of a beer belly that i could no longer suck in...but now i don't mind. but don't get any ideas people, i'm ONLY talking about old ladies!!!

here are a couple fun additions to baby lavalle's room. i got the cutest curtains and tiebacks form urban outfitters (thanks mom for the gift certificate last christmas!!) that look super cute:

and how cute are these tiebacks:

and together:

i also found an ugly old nightstand on craigslist for $10. here's the before picture:

(i didn't remember to take the picture until after i had sanded and started painting...woops!)

and here it is finished! i didn't go in the direction i originally planned, it just sort of happened:

i lined the drawer with some fun paper. and i got new knobs, one for this nightstand and some for the dresser, but i haven't received them yet. 

okay, hope i didn't bore you all too much with my fun diy projects. on another note, jamie and i started our childbirth classes tonight (jamie's going to be an amazing coach for me!) and turtle has seriously begun to stink really bad. like...really bad. but i can get out of doggy bathtime, right?
