You will never have this day with your children again. Tomorrow, they'll be a little older than they were today. This day is a gift. Breath and notice. Smell and touch them. Study their faces and little feet and pay attention. Enjoy today mamma, it will be over before you know it.

Gender Reveal


This post is a little belated but for those that might not already know!



It's a ........


BOY!!!!!


The balloons turned out really cute and Cohen liked them as well:)

Everybody had on gender neutral colors except my mom....the pink says what she guessed it was!

We revealed it a little differently to Grammy and Pops since they were a little later getting there....we met them at a restaurant and so we had the balloons hidden in the trunk ha!
They were equally surprised and excited!

So, we won't be having an Eleanor like we thought, instead we are waiting to meet 

Carter Finn O'Neal, 

but he will go by Finn!

Cohen's Big Boy room

I have really enjoyed looking at all the ideas that my friend Kim has been putting together for Cohen's room!

It will be original and no one else will have one like it! That is probably my favorite thing about it! 

Here is a post from Kim's blog (http://kosekcasa.blogspot.com/2012/03/cohens-big-boy-room-idea-board.html)  about his room.....what do yal think??

Cohen's Big Boy Room Idea Board

After discussion, a million pins, and a trip to the fabric store.  BIM put together two idea boards.

The first board was inspired by the zoom zoom fabric on the Euro Shams.  It's vibrant and full of excitement, but it wasn't exactly what Leslie had in mind.  The green bedding is from Target, the rug from Urban Outfitters, and green linen curtain fabric from Fabric-Store.com, and the other fabrics are Premier Prints.  

Visit Cohen's Pinterest Board for links.


The second room just screams...BOY!  It's a mix of contemporary fabrics, down home cookin' art, and rustic burlaps and metals.  That's what makes a room...mix!  The greens and blues marry beautifully with the crisp touches of white, and offer the perfect pop against the hard metal light fixture and the burlap shades.  

Leslie decided on this option for Cohen's Room.  


Now, if I can talk her into a focal wall with...wallpaper!  Don't you just love this gray and beige faux grasscloth wallpaper!?

And my ideas for a reading nook and storage for Cohen's toys are bubbling over!  

Don't you just love these built-in looks?




I CAN'T WAIT FOR COHEN TO SEE HIS ROOM WHEN WE FINISH!
