Yellow Striped Nursery

The nursery is FINALLY finished!!! I can't tell you how many times I changed my mind about the colors. . . yellow, cobalt blue, kelly green, gray. . . so many choices!
I finally decided to not stick with gray because my whole house is gray and I needed some color. . . so I might of gone overboard with colors:)
 Here is the Monster themed nursery BEFORE (and I mean waaaaay before, don't have any current before:)) . . .
. . . and here is the AFTER
I got the changing table at a garage sale for $5 and spray painted it yellow. This is my first changing table and my third child. . . I am loving it. 
The fabulous anatomy ABC poster is from Oohmoon (amazing digital designer!)
I love this poster because we named our little guy after his dad, who is in medical school and is also the third son.
Recovered the lamp and with the help of my Mom made some fun curtains.

 I love how happy and colorful the room is and I love the little angel that occupies it!

Yummy {Pinterest}

My wonderful Mom has been here helping me take care of my new baby and my two other boys.  She has been making some DELICIOUS recipes we found through Pinterest (thank you Pinterest app:)).
Here are our favorite so far, they definitely pass our taste test:
Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes from Picky Cook 
(we might of had these for breakfast, lunch and dinner one day)
French Dip Sandwiches from Our Best Bites
We ate the whole 9x13 pan in one day
Honey Sesame Chicken from My Kitchen Snippets
Strawberry Lemonade Bars from K & K Test Kitchen
Brown Sugar Blondies from Baked Perfection
(we added some oatmeal. . and they were yummy!)

It looks like my postpartum diet has consisted mostly of sugary, chocolatey, buttery goodness!

February Visiting Teaching Message - {Free Printable}

The importance of this month's visiting teaching message is very real to me. I gave birth to my third son this week and while caring for that little angel, I know of the importance of a woman's work here on Earth. Even if we do not have children of our own, we still belong to a family, an eternal family, that we can nurture and bring unto Christ. 
I hope you enjoy this month's visiting teaching printable. You can click on the 4x5 images below, save to your computer and print or just click the download button below to download four to a page.

As always, there are bundles of more visiting teaching tools over at VisitingTeacing.net.
