coastal boys' room

Kirsty sent me this photo of her boys' room : "We made the beach hut wardrobe and found the old cable reel that they use as a table." WOW! I'm in love with this room and Kirsty, you are one talented lady!

Judah's nursery

Lacey designed a beautiful nursery for her son Judah's nursery. She chose grey for the walls which I love and aqua accents. Judah certainly looks like he loves his nursery! See the full post and some before photos on Lacey's blog here.

fashion friday

to spice things up around here, i thought i'd try something different. fashion fridays. it all started a few weeks ago when i got a pinterest account and my sister's started a fashion blog - closet rivalry. i started perusing fashion blogs (closet rivalry is my fav of course) and pinning photos of achievable looks. now if only i lived in a city that had decent clothing stores. we don't even have an H&M!!!!!!!!!!!

here are some of my favourite outfits from my fashion board on pinterest (from blogs such as scent of obsession, et pourquoi pas coline, sincerely jules, rebel attitude, the blonde salad and atlantic-pacific):

FANTASTIC NEWS!

Pablo just got a call from his surgeon and it turns out that the tumour that was removed (the second part of his pilonidal cyst removal surgery last week) is BENIGN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The surgeon was quite surprised. It is quite common for brain tumours to travel down the spine and cause damage so he was not very optimistic that this was going to be nothing and Pablo was quite worried.

BUT WORRY NO LONGER!!!!!

Now all we have to worry about is whether the brain tumour is what caused the bladder issues that Pablo is having and get that dealt with.

Almost 2 years later and we are still dealing with the after effects of the effin' brain tumour...
