And a little sneak peak at baby boy #3's nursery.
It is sooooooo close to being finished, if I just had the energy to do it!

Book of Mormon Reading Chart
Our ward is VERY fortunate to be hearing from two amazing people tomorrow at our Relief Society activity about setting up and sticking to a personal and family scripture study schedule. One of which sent me a copy of what they give their kids to keep track of their daily reading schedule. I LOVE how you mark off each DAY you read instead of each CHAPTER you read that day. I definitely don't always finish a chapter a day and don't think that is what matters. I tweaked it just a bit but give all the credit to my friend.
I plan on printing them up on different colors of card stock, cutting them in half and using them as bookmarks. I know I am 16 days late getting this out but you can use it year after year. . . just white out the 29th of February:)
We just started consistently reading the Book of Mormon every night to our boys (I know, I know we should have always been reading to them) and it is basically the only time during their waking hours when they are quiet. For those of you who know my 3 and 1 year old boys, that is A MIRACLE!

Batman Birthday Party Invitation and Party Kit, Superhero Birthday Invitation
I was pretty excited when a fabulous customer of mine asked me to do a Batman party kit seeing how my boys LOVE superheroes (see superhero bedroom). The kit includes favor tags (4 per page), cupcake toppers (12 per page) and a Happy Birthday banner. All of which are printables. The invitation and party kit are now up in my shop.
You can always contact me for more party items . . . water bottle wrappers, party signs, address labels, etc.
Other Superheroes are also available or a combination!

Chevron Canvas Makeover
Like most decor in my house, especially the ones made by me, they get moved around A LOT and get changed A LOT. Like this canvas, after painting the chevron pattern, I hung it above our computer, than over the fireplace, than above our bed and now it resides in our hallway with a new heart initial decal.
We will see how long that lasts. . .
I was not loving the "V" and "L" vinyl that I bought simply because it was on clearance, so I have been thinking for MONTHS what I could do to change it. This is what I came up with . . . for now:)
I took an old cardboard box, scrap fabric, mod podge and scissors.
Cut out a heart and started mod podging those fabric scraps on there. The back is not so cute as you can tell but I just put some sticky backs on there (because I know me and I will probably change this sometime, hopefully in the not so near future) and slapped it on the canvas. I wasn't planning on putting the vinyl back on but as I was taking it off, I thought I still liked it without the twirly stuff.
A little love in the hallway, just in time for Valentine's Day.

Winter Yarn Wreath & More Winter Decor Ideas
I always LOVE putting up Christmas decorations but I also LOVE putting them away. However, I always feel like the house is a bit bare without any holiday decor. This is just about the only thing I have for winter decor. . . and it really isn't that wintery. The white shimmery yarn and deep purple flowers remind me of winter when I really could just keep it up year round. There is just something about decorating for the seasons. . . right?!
(Please tell me, or rather my husband, that I am not the only one that likes to change the decor every month)
Here are a few of HGTV's fans winter decor ideas
Oh, this would really throw my hubby for a loop if I painted murals on the wall for each season. . . this is vinyl but I don't have a vinyl machine so painting would have to suffice:)
A subtle silver, glittery tree
Love this porch that is ready for winter.
What do you do when the Christmas decorations come down? Enjoy the cleanliness or are you itching to put up your Valentine's decorations?
