we're back, we've moved, and we're crazy

so we are back to the blog....hoping to be a bit more consistent now.  we are somewhat settled in our new town and house with looming DIYs still going on and causing me to feel behind ALWAYS.  charlie is a month in to residency and it is busy.  he is great help and fun when he is home, but unfortunately those times are kept to a minimal....thanks s&w.  we love the new house and i hope to post some the DIYs that have gone on and will continue to go on.  we've painted every wall in the house...with exception of the mudroom...which will be done when our distaste (brought on by long hours with a roller attached to our arm) for painting has waned.  i have begun working 2 days a week at a SNF,  but really cherish the days i am home with the boys and able to make our house a home.  i'll jump start my resurgence to blog life with pictures from the boys' room.  this was a bit of a labor of love for me.  i made all the linens for the room and had so much fun coming up with the design/theme.  really, i cannot take all the credit, as charlie suggested we buy some vintage tour de france posters to hang in the room.  this was my jumping off point and where all the colors/ideas stemmed from.

this is the room before we moved in.....

and this is the room now.....




this is the view from the other side...




a few other shots....





in case you are interested....i used very easy tutorials for both the crib sheet and changing pad cover at www.prudentbaby.com


----i should add a picture of my baby boys, who...#1 are growing like crazy and #2 are the reason i put energy into things like this.  (to be honest, they could probably care less at this age....but smith did have a pretty great smile when he first saw the room....ahhhh, so worth it)
