Sometimes

 23.3.11

Sometimes I like to just look at my chevron wall.  Seriously. I like to just stand at the front door or even sit on my new bench and ogle at its epic coolness, and also dream about the finished product {which feels like it's taking FOREVER. I'm not a patient person}. I keep telling Adair that we need to finish it quickly or I'm going to change my mind...

It snowed today so the light is good.  I decided to take some more gratuitous shots of my wall, my EZ and Ginger.  Here you go, y'all...
Pretty, pretty.  The Louis chairs from Homesav.com have found a temporary home here.  The red felt flowers are going to be moved, as I'm currently working on gray & white felt roses! Please ignore the rug in the reflection of the mirrored sideboard - it's waiting to be set up.

Looking at my glorious chairs reminds me of a Gossip Girl episode a couple of weeks ago {did I just out myself as an avid GG fan?}, and Serena had the ghost chairs in her living room - but they had PADS!  Very interesting idea.  Maybe for the future. I like mine just the way they are.

EZ insisted on getting into the fray.  He makes this weird/ridiculously cute over-smile whenever I say "cheese."

This is EZ's attempt at relaxing his smile.  Clearly he hasn't watched too many ANTM episodes where Tyra insists the models "smile with their eyes."  Probably a good thing.

EZ had enough of photo-taking and grabbed the soccer ball.  Man, this kidlet is going to miss his current "soccer pitch" - aka my soon-to-be-finished dining room.  Luckily it's almost going to warm enough for him to play outside. Maybe he won't notice...

Ginger also wanted to get in on the photo action.  I wanted to snap another photo of the new bench because: 1) I added another pillow {Black, white & gray geometric pattern scored at Value Village for $1.99!}, and; 2) I added gray moc croc boxes on clearance from Urban Barn to the bottom shelf.  I wanted to add patterned fabric boxes, but I had these on hand so I made it work.  I love how it turned out.  My friend is currently sewing me a yellow chevron pillow too!

I changed out the old photos from these frames and replaced it with some cool B&W photos we had done in December.  They look more art-y.

Ginger loves the new oversized entry rug from Ikea.  She just got her hair did, but you can't tell.  I guess I wasn't clear enough in my description to the groomer. I won't make that mistake again.

When EZ noticed Ginger was getting the attention, he plopped himself down on the rug too.  Not that Mummy is complaining. It's hard these days to snap shots of EZ - he's ALWAYS on the go!

Ah the sweet smiles of my 2 yr old little dude and his best friend, Ginger.

Garden Surprises

 6.7.10

When we returned home from our trip a couple of days, one of the first things we did was check on the garden! We were surprised by what we saw.

A GORGEOUS zucchini as long as my forearm! It's huge, and we never even saw it before (likely because our zucchini is hijacking the entire garden!).

Another shot of the zucchini!


Even a couple tomatoes were growing too! Very exciting indeed!

EZ and Gingy love to play in the garden too!

Our Growing Garden

 29.6.10

Back on Victoria Day weekend in May, we planted a vegetable garden in our backyard. It looked so small when we planted it, but we were hopeful that with good weather and optimism, we'd be able to have a lush, green garden!


I think we've succeeded! We've only been able to "harvest" radishes so far, but it's coming along quite nicely!

Sesame Street Love

 7.4.10

EZ isn't really into TV, except for one show. The beloved Sesame Street.

When it comes on, EZ claps and jumps up and down at the sight of Murray, Elmo and all the other characters.

Then he climbs up on the couch and watches intently. He even said, "Elmo" this week when he came on the screen.

But, alas, he always has time to hug and cuddle with his best friend Ginger!

Saturday Morning Laundry - my lil' helpers

 18.3.10


"Mounds of laundry don't amuse me. But I'll help anyway since most of it is mine."


"Anything else in here, mum? Lemme check."


"I think I'll just hang out on the pillows, if that's alright with you."



"Gotta find my socks - they're in here somewhere!"

"Whew, I'm so tired now mum. I need a refreshment break."

Helping hands!

 16.3.10




EZ likes to busy himself. His napping has fallen by the way-side {well, has at least become less consistent}, and he's taken to running all the day long.

I think I mentioned before that he likes to walk around with the broom. I like to pretend that he thinks it's a hockey stick or a golf club.

Well yesterday, while we were cleaning out my parents planters on their front porch, he picked up the dustpan and started to help clean up.

The results were ridiculously cute.
