Girl Nursery

this mamma loves..........

Decorating Nurseries
A lot of thought went into my little girl's nursery. 
When we first found out it was a girl, the wheels started turning in my head. I was so excited to decorate her nursery ANYWAY I would like!
My first thought was polka dots. We had to do polka dots. My second thought was pink and brown!
I love those who colors together.  
 I took many trips to hobby lobby to find cute accessories. Then found the perfect crib set.
Everything started to fall into place =)

 Finally, when I was about 8 months pregnant I was able to put it all together.
I painted the walls, put together the furniture, added decor, etc...etc.....
Here is how it turned out!
(a few things have been added since)
 
  
I can't wait to decorate a nursery for a little boy
(maybe someday....) 
Although I wouldn't mind decorating another girl nursery =)

You've gotta be kidding me!

this mamma does NOT love............

Lingerie for kids?????
Keep in mind, these are not swimsuits, they are lingerie!

I am very disturbed by an article I came across today. A French designer of lingerie has come out with a line of lingerie for kids 4-12. The line is called Jours Après Lunes. Really??? FOUR TO TWELVE YEARS OLD! Do people honestly think it is okay for a CHILD to be wearing any kind of lingerie? Children do not even wear bras! I am amazed at the lack of respect people have for children. What is wrong with keeping your kids as innocent as possible for the longest amount of time? I can't remember how many times I was told, "don't rush to grow up". These items where made to look like mom's lingerie. Our course little girls want to be just like mom but when should the line be drawn? I draw the line well before we get to my child wearing lingerie. Apparently France has not clue what is age-appropriate!


Some of the items are very cute and would make a cute undershirt. There is a line for babies that actually is age-appropriate and cute. But they are marketing it as LINGERIE. Something is seriously wrong here. 

Another disturbing thing about the kid's lingerie line is the website with the girls wearing the lingerie. These sweet young girls are made to look like adults with their hair and make up done up and lounging around in their underwear. What kind of mother allows her little girl to pose for a LINGERIE line!

You be the judge read the article here or go to their website here


So what do you think? Should kids be parading around in their "just like mommy" bras and panties???

Cloud B Soother

this mamma loves..............

Cloud B Soothers
 These night time soothers have been a lifesaver for me! I bought the large lamb to put in Stella's crib and the small giraffe to take on the go. When Stella was a newborn she hardly slept! And when she did sleep, she needed noise. Her lamb was the perfect soother to help her doze off. Then I was finally able to get some sleep too! There are four different sounds soothing sounds that will comfort your baby. The sounds are incredibly calming and makes it easy for your baby to drift off into dreamland. They truly are the perfect night-time companion for every baby!

What helps your baby sleep??
