I guess you can't send a PM on here; ycjoseph I would love to see more of this room. We just bought a house and are planning to redo our toddler's room in a similar fashion (and I have been collecting green items for years, hah!) so I'd love to see more if you don't mind. I was also planning to do a tree on one wall, with felt leaves. How did you do the trunk? Love the playsilks as a roof.

Hi, that's my poster up there :)

I don't know if all versions of MS Office come with the same stuff... I have Office 2007 and the 'Insert Clip Art' function also pulls clip art from MS online, and these were in there. Lots of other great clip art too!

Who cares about the room, I swear you've kidnapped my dog and put him in your pictures.

Baxter is that you?? :)

Love your stuff, exactly my taste, and I'm with you on the dark, carpeted apartments. Can't wait to get out of ours in Jan.

I had never heard of Pandora... what a great little free app. I've already started my little nursery playlist (I'll be leaving my laptop in there, anyway.) I really like Dave Matthews Band and Norah Jones, but I would love any other suggestions for 'baby friendly' music. I'm debating whether Steve Miller Band and Led Zeppelin would be too heavy.

Thanks for introducing me to this; should save us lots of time downloading...

i've changed a few of the graphics so they're all animals, but too lazy to gap another screenshot. have yet to get it printed but the plan is to have the 16x20 image printed on 18x22 paper.

I lived in Japan for about 12 years. Our house had a 'western' toilet in one stall and a urinal in the other, but no traditional Japanese toilet. I think most of the newer buildings are moving toward the western style.

I hated using the bathroom when drunk at the bar/club, because I almost certainly would forget that my cell phone was in my back pocket...

They can be cleaner (the Japanese type) because you don't have to worry about 'touching' anything: in fact many have a button you step on to flush. However sometimes they can be quite disgusting: subways late on a Friday night, or at a busy club for example. Lots of drunk people trying to aim at a hole in the ground can leave quite a mess that you will then have to step through.
