day 50: wall decor

Tonight, I bit the bullet and put up the wall stickers that I bought months ago. I still need to finish the other part of the wall, and the bottom...but so far they look pretty good! I'm glad I finally got the guts to put them up.

day 49: Shoppin'!

Today was another boring day, I spent more time watching the Olympics, cleaning my room and then I headed to the mall for some shopping.

The Gap had 40% off your entire purchase today so I bought Jake 2 polo shirts and some clothes for gymnastics.

Then I came home and finished setting up his little section of our room. Cute huh? I'm almost done!

day 48: reading week begins.

This reading week sucks! It's Wednesday and I'm only just starting my 'free' time. Monday was Family Day, Tuesday Jake stayed home because of a fever and lack of sleep...and today he's at daycare. This year reading week for me is only 3 days long...not long enough in my opinion.

No pics today, all I did was clean. Boooooring.

day 47: one big empty wall

this is one wall in our room. It's long and empty.

The part from the closet to the tv is 8ft.

I'm torn as to what I should do with it. I've considered getting shelves, but that may just make it look cluttered.
Then I bought stickers (those space stickers on top of the toy shelf).

I was going to get a wall decal that says

'shoot for the moon and even if you miss you'll land among the stars'

but I'm not sure if that would be considered cheesey or not.

I was searching etsy earlier and found this rocket ship. It's fabulous, but I can't really afford to spend that much money on something for the wall. 

Any suggestions would be awesome! I'll keep you posted as to what I decide to do with it.  

day 46: family day

I tried to make family day 100% about my boy this year. We did whatever he wanted all morning...which involved laying in bed watching movies until 10:30. Then he had baby pancakes and apples for breakfast. After breakfast, I brought out the activity I thought he would like. We painted a birdhouse, he build a box with my dad and I attempted artwork for our room.  It was fun while it lasted. After that, Jake got a fever and spent the rest of the day hanging out on the couch. He ended up sleeping from 4:30-7:25, then staying up until midnight. poor kiddo.

day 45: tuckered boy

in his 3.75 years of life, my son has never, ever fell asleep on the couch.
before today.

happy valentines day my love.

day 44: lazy days

It seems that on Saturday we can never get moving. We generally spend the day tidying our room, napping and just hanging out watching tv. It could be due to the busy weeks we have, we never really have time to rest during the week because I have school everyday, and he therefore goes to daycare all day.

Today the boy and I just spent time at home. We watched the Olympics, cleaned our room, watched cartoons and made valentines day cards for my parents. They aren't very valentine-sy but Jake insisted on having things his way.

He made them all by himself, all I had to do was write what he asked me to.

I'm off to try and get him to sleep cause I want to watch 500 Days of Summer
