Fave Five of April - and My First Giveaway!

I am so excited to announce my first giveaway!



Fashion to Figure is offering a $30 gift card. They not only have amazing clothing, but accessories as well. Certainly when I'm pregnant or after I have a baby,  I would fit into their clothes, but right now I'm craving this necklace. The nautical look is very spring appropriate, and how can you not love an anchor?


Or this top. As you can see from my master bedroom (keep scrolling down!), I'm really enjoying a pop of yellow!

In case you missed any, here are my top five favorite posts from this last month. The time goes by so fast in blog-world (just like in mommy-world), so I wanted to take a moment to remember all I've accomplished in the last month, with you, my readers, by my side!

Our Master Bedroom in progress. And the day this posted, I had a feature on Emily A. Clark's blog, which is so amazing for me. I am incredibly thankful for all of you who joined me after that:)

oh, and I added a little something to the bedroom after I posted that. I brought in the yellow garden stool from the loft. What do you think?

I LOVE the yellow garden stool addition, great pop of color. It is so true, time just flies, it's amazing all of the big projects in such a short time. Congrats on your first giveaway!!

Your kitchen is rock star status and I am loving that bedroom color (I even pinned it - mine room needs some serious attention). I love garden stools in the house - I have 2 and your yellow one is fab!

Crossing my fingers for the giveaway - I could always use some retail therapy!
