Neutral Crib Bedding

I am really into this neutral nursery idea! It is classic yet stunning with the "less is more" approach. This beautiful neutral bedding by Serena and Lily is perfect for a boy or girl! The linen and white embroidered heirloom collection creates a serene room for baby. Who wouldn't want to drift off to sleep in this room?

2010 Uppa Baby

I love my 2008 Uppa Baby Vista but boy do I wish I had a 2010. It just keeps getting better and better! Uppa Baby must have been listening to their clients and done massive research on how to improve their product. They hit the nail on the head! I can't think of anything else that I wish my stroller had. Now I just wish I had the 2010! :)
Features include :
New Features for 2010!
Vista Seat now sits all the way up in a full seated position (the 09s did not!)
Vista Seat clicks in real easy to change to reverse seating
No more hand made wheels, a much smoother ride on the 2010 Vista
Seat is 1.5 inches taller than the vista 2009
More padding on the seat for a more comfortable ride
Removeable Bumper Bar
New Improved water proof latex matress on the bassinet
More room for rumble seat now that the front seat sits straight up
One touch brake for on and off (now you can brake even with flip flops!)

Uppa Baby is also coming out with additional add ons such as the bassinet stand, rumble seat, and BabyGanoosh to keep your little one nice and warm. Picture below is in Uppa Baby's limited edition color, Maya(yellow!).

Girls can be Little Monkeys Too!

Why is it that all parents seem to call their baby a little monkey? For those monkey lovers... This bedding from Pottery Barn is a great modern take on a tropical monkeys scene in pinks and orange.

Merry Christmas!

From Christmas

I can't believe Christmas Eve is tomorrow!!! I love the holiday season- the lights, trees, ornaments, songs, and baking treats for Santa. I came across these adorable Christmas tree cupcakes on Bakerella and wish I had the time and patience to make them. Click here for the recipe.
Unfortunately, tomorrow I will be working till 1:00pm and will probably throw a sorry batch of pre-made dough into the oven between finishing last minute preparations and entertaining a toddler. Poor Santa, I'm sure he would enjoy these cupcakes much more.

Custom Bedding

I came across Javis Davis to help you custom design your crib or child's bedding. This is a great way to get that custom look for your nursery, child's room, a shared bedroom where you want the crib and child's bedding to coordinate and even to create a matching bed for your child's doll!

So Glam, So Beautiful

This glamorous room by Little Crown Interiors is stunning! I absolutely love the pink and silver damask wallpapered wall which gives the room that "wow" factor. With the bold pattern on the wall, neutral white crib bedding gives the room a fresh contrast. This is a beautiful take on a modern traditional room.

It seems you can never have too much storage, at least in my house.

With Christmas comes presents- toys, toys, and more toys! I am beginning to wonder where all these new toys are going to go and quite frankly, I'm a little scared. I like things put away at the end of the day and only wish I had a big built-in unit(with doors!) that everything could be stored in. I try my best with the space that we have but I don't think I could ever have too much storage. Here are some great storage ideas I came across. Enjoy!

Sophisticated and Chic Nursery

This all white nursery, in Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles, is elegant, calming, and very sophisticated. I love the little pops of purple in the rug and gorgeous chair that is completely unexpected in a nursery. The dark espresso wood on the crib gives a little pop and definition to the room. Absolutely beautiful!

A Pink Christmas

As some of you know, I am personally not a huge pink fan but I think this first Christmas tree is a beautiful take on a modern tree. I'm not too sure how many men would want a pink Christmas but it would definitely be unique.

These ideas, from Better Homes and Gardens, could also be used for a Christmas party, birthday party, or baby shower(holiday inspired).
