Nursery Sneak Peek

We’re still organizing the nursery so I didn't take full pictures of the room but here's a few sneak peek photos of what we have set up so far. Our room isn't really "themed" but it's painted mint and grey and so we kept those colors in mind went we bought accessories.  

This is the girls' closet. We were so blessed to have friends and family give us hand me downs on top of all the new clothing items we received from the baby showers. They have more than enough, I just hope I'm able to take pictures of them in everything before they outgrow them!!

 This is their changing table (before) When we had our showers we just put everything up and out of the way but then I realized we needed to get a system going in here so we bought small baskets from the dollar store and were able to organize the little stuff. I actually love the way it came together

(and after) Top is their changing pad - cover is from Babies R Us "woodland" themed. It has bears, deer and arrows. 2nd shelf has their wipes, cloth diapers and inserts. Yes - we're doing cloth diapers with twins and No - we're not crazy. 3rd shelf is a basket full of their rattles, teething toys and other fun stuff, a basket of blankets and their bibs plus my baby carrier wraps (which I can't wait to use)! On the sides we have a purple basket full of newborn disposable diapers and the pink basket is size 1 diapers - we got these at a shower diaper cake. On the other side we have our diaper genie and so far I like it! It's easy to use and easy to assemble. We'll see how well it keeps in the smell!!

 We used a couple more baskets under the crib to keep all their little socks and tights together as well as the burp cloths, wash clothes etc. 

This might be my favorite part of the entire nursery... I love their little crib. I think it's just so cute. The little lambs are from my in-laws (pink for A, purple for B). The blankets are from a co-worker and they are the softest things I've ever felt. Crib bumpers are from babies R us. I can't wait to get to put my girls in here!!

This is the opposite side of the crib. There's a bed below the shelf which is where I'll be spending most of my time. We put up all their little books they received from the showers along with their bath supplies. I plan on making my own wipes so these supplies will come in handy. 

So there ya go! Our little nursery is finally coming together and now that it is I can't wait to have some babies to put in it. :)

Free Samples and Offers

I wanted to get this out soon as possible as I know the Holidays are upon us and everyone is looking to save some money this time of year. This post is geared towards parents of multiples but if you have singletons please feel free to reach out to the companies below too for some free samples and offers, but please be aware some offers might not apply to you. If you’re like me then the minute your babies were born you were online looking at deals and ways to save money. I came across a lot of blog posts and articles stating if you contact this company then they will send you this product free. I thought how true is this? So I put them to the test. I took many lists from the internet and combined it into one giant list of baby product companies; I then emailed and mailed each company requesting free samples due to the birth of my twin girls. Below you will find the responses I received. Some companies were great, while others were….off putting. I included coupon codes I found o...

Centerpiece Craft - 4th of July

I've started preparing for my BBQ on July 4th and the first thing I knew I wanted to make was a centerpiece for the table where all the food is going to be laid out. Regardless of what's going on in Washington and who is President right now, I'm a diehard America fan. My father was in the Air Force, I grew up a Military Brat, tons of uncles and aunts and my grandparents have served... and my brother is currently serving the US Air Force so I'm a little obsessed with these patriotic holidays. I think I mentioned before that July 4th is becoming one of my favorites but anyway because of this I'm going all out for this BBQ so let's get into the craft. What You Will Need: A large clear jar or container Pinecones Red, White & Blue spray paint Fun, patriotic sprays 2 Cardboard boxes - to keep the mess to a minimum I found my pinecones about two years ago now from a floral shop on craigslist that was closing. They had thrown out everything and I was there...

Life Update - No April Fools

I sit here in a crowded room filled with papers, knick knacks, Christmas decorations, Wedding Planning materials and more sprawled out everywhere. I worked my last day at the corporate distribution center on Friday. Come Monday I'll be starting in a new-to-me building and it's bitter-sweet. I love the old DC, where there were only about 100 corporate employees there, everyone knew everybody personally and you could have personal items displayed on your desk without fear of something happening to them. With this move, I don't think I will be as lucky... Hence all the random items now laid out in my office.  I'm realizing I'm going to need to make a trip down to the storage unit to put away the boxes that came home from the office. But seeing all my packed up wedding items, I've also been thinking I really need to start promoting my wedding/event planning business. I finally received my event planning certificate in the mail on Thursday of this past week and it ...
