I love Skip Hop stuff. We already have the whale spout cover, turquoise toy organizer and the stacking duck cups as well as a Skip Hop diaper bag and some other goodies.

Now if my last two weeks would hurry up so I can finally meet my sweet baby and start using this stuff!

Those are so cute. As our future son is going to be part Korean, the Korean blocks would be awesome to have.

I loooove soda. My husband and I started keeping diet sodas made with Splenda (Publix brand) around the house instead of regular products like Coke. I was drinking Coke Zero instead of regular to help my waistline but quit drinking that after becoming pregnant because of the caffeine and questionable sweeteners. I just try to limit my intake now and try to drink from a straw when possible (the same as when I drink sports drinks like Gatorade...read they ruin tooth enamel as well).

I definitely lose inches from my waistline when I'm not drinking much soda, and I seem to have less cellulite as well (don't know if there has even been a study relating the two). But I could never completely give it up...too good.

We have exposed beams in our living room, but a previous homeowner painted them white. I so wish they were natural again, but I'm not gonna get up there and do it :(

Oh wow, I just noticed you are in Tuscaloosa. I live in Madison, AL. I lived in Tuscaloosa for about 4 years while in college. I really like the color combo of turquoise and orange, but that is just too close to orange and blue for my husband...we are definitely a crimson and white household :)

Cute nursery. I love turquoise! If I wasn't already set on leaving the walls taupe in my unborn son's soon-to-be nursery, I would have them painted turquoise. I also really love that black and white chevron rug. I'm having multi-colored chevron curtains made for the nursery. I love the sense of movement the chevron pattern brings to a room. I plan on putting some empty frames on the wall too to fill later...I'm sure my husband is going to have the same reaction as yours.

Cute room. Love the green wall color and the dandelion and the crisp white linens. And what a cute baby boy!

Kitchen renovations can be very expensive, like tens of thousands of dollars expensive. This DIY kitchen makeover really made a big difference. I'm impressed. It looks great. Amazing what some paint can do.

Cool, I'll check it out. As an Alabama girl I need to increase my southern cookery skills. I have found that I can make a mean Chinese cashew chicken, but I can't make good fried chicken :)

Great post! I'll have to check some of these out. I didn't know there was a movie based on Pollan's Botany of Desire. I love Michael Pollan and loved this book.

Yum, yum...I want this right now. I love the suggestion by LadyBowWow of adding a roasted poblano too. I'm making fish tacos tonight and this would be a lovely side.

Great room! I love the sky blue walls and I am in love right now with the mod dot bedding from Skip Hop. I love cute owls as well and plan on featuring them in the nursery. I also love the name Ainslie.

I think this is adorable. So fun and cheerful. I am too lazy to complete such a project, however.

I was born and raised in Alabama, and this is one dish I have never had a taste for. I like Asian-style coleslaws and I love me some mayonaise, so you think I would like Southern-style coleslaw...but alas, no:(
