Sometime in December, I moved the desk that we had in the basement into Simon's room. I figured he was old enough to have his own desk to work at. He loves the fact that he has his own desk like Isabella. I took the black Eames rocker out of his room and moved it into the living room to make way for the desk. Here is a quick photo I took of it in the corner of his room:
This next photo is of Isabella's room and her new jewelry making desk that her uncle Jeff made her. For Christmas, Pablo and I bought her the black framed print above her desk. The print to the left we had bought her some time ago and it is also from the same artist:
Here are two random photos I took of Simon today:
I figured it was about time to put the kids school photos in the picture frames I had hanging in the stairwell. I replaced some older photos with the school pictures and I will continue to replace some of the older photos with the school pictures as we get more (or I need to get hang more frames...):
And now, some presents received over the holidays:
Oh yeah, I forgot to take a photo of my new cast iron skillet! Can't believe I've lasted this long without one...thanks mom!

 |
| Pablo asked my parents for a Keurig and am I ever glad they obliged! |
 |
| We did a gift exchange with extended family and I won a gift (that was from my twin) that included teas, coffee, etc. The lemon cookies on the top are TO DIE FOR. I must find them and buy LOTS. |
 |
| I hate being cold so I asked my folks for this parka from Aritzia (their warmest one) |
 |
| knowing I was most likely getting the parka above, I treated myself to these Sorel boots. I hate cold feet. |
 |
| the kids (thank you, Pablo) got me this gorgeous necklace and bracelet |
 |
| a Vero Moda pleather jacket from my folks |
 |
| a DKNY top from my folks |
 |
| I bought these for Pablo and forgetting that we don't have a working BBQ... |
 |
| Simon got this crazy cool remote control helicopter from my folks. Pablo loves it. |

Hi, I love your blog, and adore the beautiful pictures of the tiger and the little girl. Can I ask what the artist's name is?

DeleteHey Julia, indeed you did an adorable job for your fan-followers and also reader like me. It was a hilarious journey and experience in your mind-pleasing treasures. I like the room you decorated for Simon and Isabella. Not only that The kids school photos in the picture frames, Keurig, gift exchange including teas, coffee, parka, Sorel boots, necklace and bracelet (really gorgeous), Vero Moda pleather jacket, delicious BBQ (I got my mouth watered- LoL), crazy cool remote control helicopter for Simon- oh all the items you unfolded before us was so fascinating, so adorable. Love your sweet details. In fact, my browsing story was to reveal the best gift ideas online for friends, moms, Christmas day and other occasions. But seriously the sweet details you presented here was extremely mind-blowing read for me.
