Friday 5

1 || My baby is in size 3 - 6 months and size 2 diapers?!! What?!! He has been growing so much and has been very hungry the past week. I think he's going through a growth spurt! Please stop growing up Camden! I do love me some chunky baby thighs though...

2 || My diet has taken a backseat to comfort food eating! HELP! I really need to get back on track. I have 9 pounds to go to get to my pre-preggo weight (as of this morning). I totally fell off the wagon this week and hoping to get in a little gym time this weekend. Who can resist Mc D's fries though?


3 || I already started spending my March clothes 'allowance', whoops! I ordered these Zella leggings and these converse shoes. I may or may not have ordered matching converse sneaks for Camden... :)

4 || This pin from my Closet Foodie Pinterest board has been re-pinned 130 times... I'm not sure why, but maybe it's because I pinned it from the original source and was not a re-pin? Anyways, I'm planning on making it tonight for dinner. Seems pretty easy!


5 || Season 3 of House of Cards is available today on Netflix!! It may be a binge watching weekend for Bill and me... we are obsessed!



TGIF!

Bootie Call



Yep, totally used that title for this post! 

I am really looking forward to some warmer temps (like even 30s and 40s would be nice) and for this snow to melt. I'm pretty sick of wearing my Hunters and snow boots!

I have been recently obsessed with finding the perfect pair of booties for the Winter / Spring transition.

I'm linking up with Nat and Annie for Thoughts for Thursday.

Family Room Decor

Currently, we are (slowly) working on redecorating our family room and I am having a hard time with decided what to do on the wall above our couch. 

It has been blank for over a year now and it's driving me crazy! Bill used to have 2 large art pieces hanging over the couch that I was not a fan of, so we sold them. When I moved in the room was so drab... Brown and tan everywhere blah! Since then, we've added our marble coffee table and I just got new teal blue curtains and throw pillows to bring in some more color. Next is purchasing a new grey sectional and getting rid of the ugly brown sofa and love seat. I will be so happy when that is done!

I want to wait to put anything on the wall until we ave our new sectional to make sure everything is centered, but I want to start brainstorming ideas now. 

Here are my top ideas for decorating the wall above the couch:

1 | Gallery Wall

I like this idea of the gallery wall because I can incorporate so many meaningful things like a wedding photo, artwork, random frames and decor, etc. I just don't know if I want the wall to be too "busy."


2 | Floating Shelves

I like the idea of floating shelves because it gives more structure to the look. You can also change out the art / frames easily with out putting more holes in the wall. It would take less planning and preparation than the gallery wall. 


3 | One main focal point

Or we could just have one main focal point like a custom art piece, large canvas portrait from our wedding or a large mirror like the one below:
