Superheroes

I wanted to get something special for Nick's room since a lot of his stuff will be moving into the baby room. 

So I ordered him a print on Etsy. They had so many variations but his walls are light blue so I thought this one would look good.

After being framed

I already had the frame kicking around so I just trimmed it up and boom! Ready to be hung. Dan has some jobs to do this coming weekend :)

O is for Octopus

This week we did the letter "O" at school. What better way to celebrate this letter than by making an orange octopus out of an empty TP roll?! Thank you Pinterest yet again!

January!

January was a cold one but we tried to keep busy!

• We had an impromptu playdate with Lia on New Year's Day! Gotta keep toddlers busy!
• I grabbed tea with a teaching friend before going back to work after Christmas holidays. It's nice to unwind!
• Nicholas started in the Pre-school room. His first drop off brought tears but we haven't seen them since. He is such a big boy!
• Speaking of boys, we found out we are having another little boy! We can't wait! 
• We had a girly dinner before Courtney becomes a mommy again. It was lovely to hang out without the kiddos! Ps: Her new little man arrived on Jan 27th! 
• We hosted the monthly playdate
• I finally got around to having a pre-natal massage. Heavenly!
• We had the G's over for home made lasagna. Yum-o!
• I did some organizing/donating/purging around the house.
• I was busy writing report cards. Whew! Thank-goodness that is done! 
• I scored a 2nd hand bed rail for Nick. 10.00! 
• My inlaws came for a visit. We went to St. Jacob's, enjoyed some home made cannelloni and installed a new range hood! Nick loves having extra people to entertain him! 
• We finally tried out Nick's new sled as it has been way too cold for the majority of the month!

Let's hope we get outside a little more in February. We are off to a Super Bowl Party today!

Brightening Up The Hallway

We finally hung up the baby hat art that I made a while back. Nick was a great little helper and actually did some hammering for us. The funniest part was that Dan asked me where the 2nd frame was (the one for baby dill.) Umm not made yet? Lol!

Nick's brother will have one made for him and it will hang below this one. 

I can't wait for all the trim in this house to be white but I better be patient as I don't see it happening anytime soon!!

A Pretty Little Range Hood

My in laws are here this weekend and we visited yesterday and went to St. Jacob's Market. Today "we" did a project. Our old range hood didn't work properly and was super noisy. So we replaced it. What a difference!
