Sneaky. Sneaky. You really shouldn't do that mom...at least that's what he thinks, but as far as I'm concerned, I love checken' out this little guy in his bed again because it's been six long months of sleepless nights on the couch. Yes, Ethan wasn't keen on the idea of sleeping alone in his bedroom and there are reasons for it that I won't go into because I'm afraid it might result in your thinking I've fallen' off the rocker. Let's just say I'm a firm believer of the spiritual world these days...in any event, I was determined to help him find his way back to his official sleeping grounds. I initiated an overhaul to his bedroom and the last three weeks, I've been eyeing paint colors, bedding, furniture, floor rugs, etc. In the process of doing that, I've run into a few new places I thought you might be interested in checking out (thanks to Pinterest!). They're not exactly kid oriented, but still, they're very much worth investigating! You never really know what's out there until you start looking around....
I'll list my fave first...

Ever wanted one of them really cool, trendy blogs for yourself only to realize you're without the skill level to take it on? Allow Powder by Pastries to help you with that..I plan to take a full day at some point to navigate and study the mounds of css & html info that's posted on the blog. As a computer programmer and self-taught designer, Katrina {maker of blog} is my new go to blog design expert.
Next up is this eye candy display of a store {Pip Studio} - now if only I could move it and live with all that color! I'd be the happiest girl on the planet! And sadly, it's far, far away - Amsterdam. If only....
Gorgeous stationary and color palettes to boot, this blog was added to my google reader this morning! Can we ever really get enough of beautiful, inspiring imagery? Betsy White helps to fill the void...
I should probably return to this morning's scheduled homework. Technically, I probably should of started it two hours ago, but then again, I'm nearing the end of the year, so I don't feel entirely bad about abandoning it temporarily. Hope you've taken to the links - have a lovely afternoon! ~CM
