My Attempt to Blog Again

I haven't written anything in this blog for a looong time.  Having two kids at less than two years apart can deprive a mom of "me time" like reading a book or blogging.  Today I realized I might succeed at this since I like posting photos on Facebook anyways.  

My babies were just hospitalized due to a chronic cough caused by allergies. Sadly i passed this on to them. A construction site at the lot next to our condo must be contributing to their poor health. Today I need to visit a job site and I come prepared with a dust mask 


I also wore my "construction shoes" a pair that was given to me when I was part of the design team of Extreme Makeover Home Edition Philippines.  

I hardly ever wear these shoes because I don't know what to pair them with. My hubby said I should wear them with a mini skirt. Today I just threw in cargo shorts and a white shirt. 


My construction site of a three story townhouse  was no where near done but it was taking shape.  For those of you curious to know what it looks like here is a photo 


Anyway I brought my three year old with me and he is nearly bored.  Time to stop blogging and give him my undivided attention. 


Until next time...

My Baby's Room

I always knew I would be a great mom.  When we learned we were having a boy, I was ecstatic!  Some mothers look forward to candy pink, ribbons, and flowers, but I wanted balls and baseball caps.  Being an interior decorator, his bedroom was in my dreams.  I wanted it to be educational, in lively baby colors.  I decided to go with wall stickers.  They are easy to apply, and easy to remove.  I can change them with no mess and hassle when my son outgrows them.  

I've done a room with murals (pink bedroom below), yes they have a somewhat whimsical feel to it, but in this day and age, practical design seems more appealing. 



 In the end, this is what my baby's room looks like.  Now at six months (they grow too fast) he knows to look at the right sticker when I say "where's the monkey?" or "where's the elephant?"  Still working on the other animals, but hey, he's only 6 months right?
