Corners Of Our Home

Image
I have a minor confession to make, I tend to organize my house if I know I am going to take photos for my blog. I need to do this more often so I am more motivated to clean up! Another confession is that I am a horrible gardener! Let see how long our basil and our mint plants will survive. I hope you are having a great week so far. Busy week for me and I am so glad that we are halfway through the week!

14 Months of Pure Joy

Image
Kaylee upgraded from her rocking chair to big girl chair when she turned 1! I can finally say motherhood is not so bad, now that we got the whole sleeping arrangement down and she is sleeping in her nursery with no fuss! She is walking, talking and often singing and humming. Caught her several times walking over to the dog's station to try on their food, eek! Luckily she hasn't eaten any yet! (not that I know of) She loves eating, just like her momma and I can tell that she is going to be a picky eater when she's older. She can eat fruits and Pho (Vietnamese Noodle Soup) all day long and can not get enough of sushi! Happy 14 Months baby girl. Mommy love you so so much!

Lookbook: Stripes:Pink and 30 Things

Shirt:Bebe Pants:HM Purse:MK Over the weekend I went out with few girls since my dear friend Diane was in town for couple days. Every since I gave birth to Kaylee, going out and sipping on a margaritas is not the norm in my lifestyle anymore. Although it's so nice to be able to get together with the girls, chat about life and gush over Fifty Shades of Grey.

Welcome and Hello May

Image
The weather has been beautiful lately, we simply love taking Kaylee and our 3 doggies out to enjoy the nice breeze and get some fresh air. Every since we had Kaylee, the dogs has been a bit jealous of her so we are trying to make up to them by taking them out more often on weekends.  We recently found a new brunch place that we can't get enough of. Love going there for their yummy waffles, I can seriously eat that everyday! Hubby loves their cinnamon fresh toast. I can not believe it's May already but we are definitely excited that summer is just around the corner. Happy May day!

For The Love of Mint..Home

Image
Mint is such a hot color this spring for fashion but I find that even with home design, a splash of mint can really make a statement. Once in awhile I love looking at home decor design stuff to be inspired.  I simply love modern, fresh and clean design of these photos. Mint is so refreshing and easy on the eye that I can definitely see me using it on our next home design. I hope you have a wonderful weekend! you can view our home tour here
