Posh Playhouse

Wouldn't this be so fun and fabulous to have in your backyard?  This playhouse is definitely out of my price range but luckily Little Miss O has a talented grandfather  whom I sure would be able to duplicate this design at a fraction of the cost. This idea is definitely a keeper for when Miss O is older.

Love the Library at Twelve Oaks

If you've ever seen the movie 'Gone with the Wind', you'll know what I'm referring to in my post title. If not, here are some scenes from the movie.


Isn't that a fabulous library? The moulding and trim, the mantle, the curtains, the books...fabulous.

Feeding Lil' Miss O

I figure that Lil' Miss O should always look as cute as possible, that includes while eating. I found some bibs that are both functional and cute on Etsy at ODannysGirl.

This might actually be a good DIY project for all you crafty people out there or it might just be easier to order and that's just as much fun. I'm currently debating the idea of making them. I'll update if I do. Hmmm...decisions, decisions. 





Homemade Baby Food Cookbook

Little Miss O decided early on that she didn't like the taste of store bought baby food.  Since then I've been making simple homemade baby food, but I feel that I'm stuck in a rut and not offering enough variations.  While at Barnes and Noble's yesterday I found a great book called Wholesome meals for Babies and Toddlers in the bargain section for only $6.98.  The recipes look so yummy I can't wait to start trying out the recipes today.

Dining Room Dreams

The hubby and I are in dire need of a new dining room set.  Alright... dire need is a huge exaggeration. My in-laws were great and gave us their old set and is actually very nice, but the tone of the wood is too light. I think it would look great in a darker color, but I'm going to give it back to my in-laws since I know that it has special meaning to my mother-in-law and I know they can use it in their new house. These are a few that I like:

Updated Pearls

I love the look of a classic pearl necklace but lately I've been thinking that the perfect pearl necklace needs a bit of a change. You know what I mean?  A pearl necklace with a little more substance and presence.  Of course, Etsy comes to mind for unique jewelry. Here are a few pieces I fell in love with...

synthetic pearls and glass beads

Freshwater Pearls


Sister Suffragette Sterling Silver Necklace 
Purple Green and White Crystal and Pearl 

Happy Etsy Shopping!
