i had found this <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/263601384409483897/" target="_blank">pin</a> on pinterest and thought it was such a simple but cute idea for curtains in a little girl's room. i recently bought audrey a yellow comforter from target. not big on disney princesses and other themed rooms, i thought yellow would be a good replacement for the green accents i've been moving into the nursery. a few botanical flower and butterfly prints and wall mounted bookshelves will follow someday, in the future.</div>

meanwhile, in babyland... this is the nursery so far. yes <a href="http://xeniat.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">xenia</a>, we decided to keep the bed for now and shoved it to the side. :) the colors will be aqua, orange and green but for now it's just a mess. the old green curtains from audrey's room are on the dresser and everything is quite empty. it's a work in progress but at least there <u><i>is</i></u> progress!</div>

audrey's favorite thing to do first thing in the morning is to eat her cereal in front of the space heater. every morning. i remember doing the same thing as a kid. our rented ranch house was at the bottom of a valley and didn't receive a lot of sunlight in the mornings. sometimes we would dress for school in front of our heater. my mom still owns that same heater and it sits in her living room. i sat in front of it one morning when i visited last june. of course living in southern california with a high of 83 degrees today, a space heater isn't really needed. i turn it on the lowest heat and take my time busying myself in the kitchen as i make my toast and listening to the familiar hum. like mother like daughter i suppose :)</div>

i bought this coffee cup planter at ross the other day (love ROSS and HOME GOODS!) and it gave me an ache in my heart for my sister. it's just the sort of thing i'd see sitting in her apartment. if you're reading this valerie... it's too heavy to ship so i'm keeping it! hee hee! check your local ross! </div>

here are my puffy pregnant feet and a hint of baby boy tummy. i'm currently in an argument with myself about the nursery. rational wife jenny agrees with rational husband michael that we should wait to tackle converting the guestroom into a nursery until a few months after baby boy is born. he'll be sleeping in the bassinet in our room for awhile and out of town family members will need a place to stay after he comes. BUT hormonal pregnant nesting jenny wants to rip every last piece of furniture out of that room and fill it with woodland stuffed animals, baby quilts, adorable printed curtains, accents of aqua and orange and let the out of town family members sleep on the air mattress in the the living room. with a tasteful and private folding room divider of course.</div>

i've been happier reading than blogging lately. apologies. life's been moving though, my sister came to stay for a week, (which was wonderful!) audrey's baker costume was a hit on halloween and other <a href="http://www.babycenter.com/6_your-pregnancy-10-weeks_1099.bc">developments</a>.<br />
<br />
enough of that, it's craft time! we're hosting thanksgiving again this year and i wanted to add some cheap decorations that i could leave up for christmas too. so i decided to make some<i> festive</i> flags!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
step 2: i then measured out 4" and 8" on the bottom side of one sheet and 2", 6" and 10" inches on the top. then i connected the dots, doing that on each sheet. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

step 5: audrey woke up from her nap so i took a little break. so we ate some red pepper crackers and watched the neighbor fix his sprinkler across the street. <br />

<br />
step 6: measure the width of where you want to hang your flags and add 5" inches to allow for a little droop. i added only 2" for the strings over the doorways for those unfortunate tall people that walk into my house.<br />
<br />
step 7: string your flags and enjoy. :)<br />

i love those rainy autumn days when time seems to grow heavy. those days when you continue to wear your pajamas a little later in the morning, put a little extra honey on your toast and buy the five dollar latte to prolong the feeling. </div>
