Friday Find

When I posted the bed from Oly earlier this week, my buddy Brooke commented and said "When money is no object... Oly is always the answer". So true, my friend ;)

So I thought it was fitting to post this "look for less" option for those of us who do have a budget.

An Analogy

You know when you have food poisoning or the stomach flu, and you feel soooo sick, then you throw up and feel 100% better, then a little bit of time goes on and you feel sooo sick again, and the cycle continues?

The same thing happens to me with baby fever. Ha! I know, it may be a totally gross analogy, but it seems fitting. And you know how I like to be honest here on my blog.

Sometimes I think OMG I want a baby sooo bad like NOW! And then other times the thought of having one makes me a little ill.

I don't think I'm the only one? Just like my quarter-life crisis at 25, I think this is something that just comes along with being in your late 20's/early 30's and having an obsessive-about-planning personality. My husband feels the same way, too. And these wishy-washy feelings are one reason we don't have one yet (among other more mature reasons, like bulking up savings, etc).

I thought I would share this little thought with you today, because right now you could say my baby fever is "on again". And when my baby fever is "on again", I like to look at (pin) baby stuff.

This onsie is too funny:


I may have to get it whenever we have a baby and have our mothers come stay with us (hehe, I kid).


This nursery is really cool.. I like the monochromatic color scheme. And it seems like more and more people aren't finding out the sex of their babies, and this could totally work for a boy or a girl:


If I had a baby today, and it was a girl, I'd probably do pink and navy:


I have an aversion against primary colored baby stuff (I know, I will have to someday get over it), so of course I loved this baby play mat tutorial.. you can pick exactly what fabric you want to have strewn all over your house!


My mom is a total francophile, so we were raised on Babar and Madeline. How cute is this:


It'd be adorable in a boy's nursery but the link to the picture source isn't helpful.

I just think gender reveal parties are so fun. I think we'd do that.. except I'd want to find out before the party with my husband alone so we can reflect together instead of in front of a room full of people. But it'd be super fun to do with family and friends!


Anyway, those are some baby things I am liking lately.

Next week I'll probably be thinking about alcoholic drinks and not having to pay $1,000/month on daycare and having the freedom to take last minute vacations.

King Beds

Usually on vacations we stay in King sized beds. We are used to a queen, so it's a luxury to be able to sprawl out in a King. It's not that we dislike having a queen... but I do sometimes think about getting a new bed (mainly because I don't love the style of our current bed). And if we WERE to get a new bed, I'd probably get a king ;)

We're not getting a new bed anytime soon, but purely for day-dreaming purposes here is what I would consider ;)

I love this NOIR bed, and the price is somewhat attainable ;)

Speaking of beds, I loved this bedroom in the newest Lonny:



It looks like they bought the NOIR bed I posted first and custom upholstered the headboard... genius! I really love the colors...
