brain dump

  • I mentioned last week that we had our whole downstairs repainted. We know that eventually we will want to sell this house & realize that MOST people wouldn't appreciate the lime green and bright yellow walls. Hey, we like some color, what can I say? We decided to go ahead and paint before Baby Dos arrives & our lives get a little bit crazier. I say "we" and by that I mean we hired 2 great guys who completed the job in a day & a half! We went from this...
to this! 


I really didn't think I would be crazy about having a neutral color on all the downstairs walls but I actually love it! It is so much brighter & will be so much easier to decorate. Next up, curtains! 
  • Grayson and Ben had a guy's day out while I got my hair done on Friday. Apparently they did a little crafting that I didn't know about! 
They made me a plate at the local pottery painting place! ha! Ben said that G held the brush and he "helped" him paint. I would have loved to see those 2 together painting pottery! 
  • I have been researching double strollers online and think I would really like the Baby Jogger City Classic. The only problem is that nobody in the Nashville area carries them. So frustrating! A stroller is like a car; you need to test drive them before you buy. It will be difficult to test drive if I can't find one. Come on, Nashville baby stores...get it together! 
  • This cold weather is overrated. Our super mild winter has been so nice & now my body is in shock from the below freezing temperatures. If it is going to be this cold, I want some snow. Grayson has snowboots and a snowsuit just waiting for the perfect opportunity to get used! 
  • I loved watching the Grammy awards last night!! There were so many great performances & it really does go to show that true talent wins out over the ridiculous outfits/performances. 

I don't get Nicki Minaj. Maybe that makes me old, oh well. A fake Pope as her date? The strange Little Red Riding Hood outfit? Weird. The world already has one Lady Gaga; don't think there is room for another.
Adele on the other hand? I love her. I'm surprised her album still works as often as it is played in my car. I'm so glad she was recognized for her talent all night!

Hi Laura!! I've been reading your blog for a long, long time now, but I'm one of those stalkers who never comments, LOL! I live in Atlanta, so I love reading about all the things you do that are close by. Feels like we are kind of neighbors! :) Anywho...I just had to ask...where did you get your sectional? I have been on the search FOREVER, and I love yours!!

I seriously LOVE LOVE LOVE the paint job!!!! Sooooooo good! I can't wait until we get the word on the bank from our house. In hopes that we get it and can start decorating soon! By soon I mean like 3 months. We offered on a short sale. Boooo to waiting!

I LOVE your new paint color! It's amazing how great the neutral flatters your current furniture and trim. Excellent choice!
