Lazy HOT Summer Daze In The South........

It has been a HOT week here in the south. And i'm very preggers! I tried to get started packing this weekend and didn't get very far. I'm afraid it is going to be a long process...and i have NO energy. What was i thinking.......

Paint, Flooring, Kitchens...OH MY!!!!!!!!!

Me and my sweet little girl went to Lowe's today to look at Paint colors for the new house. She is getting a sweet PINK in her room while baby brother is getting a dark beige. Livingroom, Kitchen, Hall, Entryway, Diningroom will be getting a neutral "Kacky" color. And the Master suit and Bath is going to be a steel/blue/grey shade (if you can imagine that)...hehe! As for the Guest Bath...still not to sure. Went on over to the flooring department and picked out the carpet for the kids rooms. And looked at some Travertine for the Kitchen. Then on to Cabinets, and granite....that is still being discussed. WOW!!! Way to many decisions to make in a short amount of time. But i still can't wait to close on the house and start on the demo!

Great News......

We have found a house and are (cross your fingers) closing by the end of the month!!! YIPPIE!!! I can't wait to get in and start Decorating :) The back yard is absolutely wonderful. It is going to be great for the kids. That is the first thing i imagined when i got a look at the back yard. It is HUGE! The inside of the house needs a few updates...thank goodness my hubby is so handy. House Demo is right up his ally...hehe! The one good thing about this house is that it has PLENTY of storage. Oh and it also has all original Hard Wood floors thru out. NO CARPET. NO TILE. We have decided to carpet the kids rooms and tile the bathrooms and kitchen though. SO that is what i have been looking at all morning. And pretty sure that i have found what i want to carpet the kids rooms in. PRESTIGE/FRIEZE CARPET. I absolutely love it. It isn't supposed to mat down and great for high traffic. And best of all kid friendly and hides stains very well. We want to go with the tan or beige color. Updates to come later.

Fabric Softener........

Hope everyone had a glorious Memorial Day Weekend. Me and little bit enjoyed having the hubby around an extra day. :)

Today is another rainy day here in the south. Great day for Coffee (decaf unfortunately) and spending time reading and playing with my little girl. Not much energy these days. My baby countdown says only 101 days left. :) Still thinking of a names for the little guy. Still looking for ideas for his nursery too. Today i think i will work on some burp cloths and pee pee teepees. hehe!

Well I was at good'ol WalMart this weekend... and i went down the fabric softener isle to smell out a new scent someone told me about. I picked up one i thought i would like...came home and finished my laundry with my new fabric softener. Loved the new smell. I wanted to wash my whole house in it. I got online to do some more research on some of the other new "flavors" and when i googled fabric softener the work TOXIC came up. WHAT??? So i took the time to check it out and this is what i found. Fabric Softener is one of the most toxic...chemical added thing you can put on your clothes! Here is the link check it out for yourself...........
