We don't have our baby girl yet, but we are getting ready for her to come. Just one more month... During Christmas, we went shopping for Glider/Recliners and found this one at Sofa Mart. It was magic sitting in it after trying so many others. We loved it so much that we tried to find it in California, but after many stores and calls, it didn't exist here. We ended up driving to St. George to get it. It was a quick trip and we even got to see our friends the Noel's in Las Vegas! We love this chair!
Since we have been married, we have started a tradition of buying plants from Home Depot where ever we live. This is our LA addition.
From front to back: Cactus from Las Vegas, Plant from LA, Pink veined plant from Provo, Utah (we've had this plant for almost as long as we've been married), and the yellow speckled plant from Las Vegas that has gotten huge since we brought it to LA. Our favorite plant is the one from Provo because it has feelings. It has been almost dead for most of its life until LA weather. Who knew it needed humidity? It has died and wilted completely several times, but it always comes back.
Can you tell we treat our plants like our pets?
Our new Crib! I made the sheet, and am planning to make the other bedding stuff soon.
Here is our Bamboo Shelf that we just made. We looked all over for bamboo, and got quite discouraged until my mom said to look at a nursery. Little did we know that there was cheap bamboo within walking distance of our apartment.
Jeremy built this in our apartment at night, so hopefully our neighbors don't hate us too much. I love how it turned out!
I am making 3 more fabric boxes from makeit-loveit.com. These are the first 3 and I love how they have turned out. Plus, the owl fabric is my favorite!

Everything looks so cute! plus I am really, really impressed that you've kept those plants alive for so long. I think my record is a month.
I love that you're making so much stuff! I'm definitely not that good :) i'm so excited for you guys!
I love the boxes. I think I may just have to make some. Was it expensive for the plastic sheets? By the way the link for them sends you to some psychic rading website. Haha.
Brent asked me earlier if I had seen your post because he thinks your shelf is awesome. As do I. I am excited for you!
The chair looks like I need to come try it out. You have a green thumb and I am extra proud of your sewing skills and Jeremy's furniture building skills! I can't wait he next new addition!!
Christa - I fixed the link, whoops ;) and the plastic sheets were 1.50 at Joann's for the 12x18 size which was enough for 1/2 a box (I used cardboard in the bottom so I only bought 2 sheets per box).
Mom and Shalane - I don't have a green thumb, you should see our failure of a garden.. for the last 3 tries...
I love the chair, crib and the bamboo shelves with the fabric boxes. We are excited to have a new addition to the family.
