Why did Tigger look in the toilet....?

To find Pooh, silly... And that is just what we did.  Find Pooh, not look in the toilet.  We decided on having some Winnie the Pooh themed decor in the nursery (is it weird that I think it's weird to say nursery and just want to say the baby's room?).  But we didn't just want Pooh, we wanted Pooh having fun.  And lucky for us, we found really nice wall decals that are easy to remove down the road when Miss Marley is over Pooh.

Hubbs did an excellent job of putting up most of the wall decals while I was at my second (and last) prenatal yoga class (I'll expand on that later).

So here we have Tigger swinging Pooh from a tree.

Then in the middle we have a Christopher Robin quote.

Then we have Piglet waving from the other tree.

And that is the whole wall.  As you may be able to see, the crib is not full of a mattress or sheets, but clothes needing to be washed any my baby scrapbook.  We think the wall turned out quite lovely.


On Sunday, I went to a friend's baby shower.  She is having a little baby boy in October.  And I decided to make her (well, him) a baby blanket to go along with his gift.  So Hubbs and I went off to Joann's and picked out some fabric.  I was lucky to find some that semi matched their jungle animals theme and a blue (or turquoise if you ask the old lady in Joann who told Hubbs that her whole house is that color) that matched perfectly. 

So first I laid the animal one down with the print facing OUT.  Then laid the blue on top.  Then cut to match, more or less.  Then I did some fancy measuring and marking and cut strips into each side.  I then tied to the two fabrics together.  Easy peasy.  And this is what turned out:

And here is a not so good shot of the basket...
