Home Sweet Home

So I thought I'd share a few of my favorite places in our new home. We are still very much in the "set-up" stage but slowly things are coming together. I love walking in and feeling so at home! I also love that Spence loves it...what a great place for him to come home to after a long day at school. So here area few random but awesome places in our home.

The hall way. Now I know this may seem really random but for some reason these pictures on this wall just make me smile. We have noticed that we have too much "us" around. We're working on changing out "us" for art and others but this will take time and money. One step at a time people!
Also, these pictures make me think of two of my besties MJ and Lo. They gave them to me for my wedding and every time I look at these I can't help but smile and feel loved!
Our TV stand. Now this deservers a post for itself but I'll spare you. I love this cute little stand. I need a few coffee table books to make it look pretty and our pictures will be on our wall someday. Still waiting for an addition that will take them off the floor. The B will also make it's home on the wall but for now it makes me happy when I go to turn the TV on or off!
Now this is my most favorite part of the house. My little reading nook! One day it will be my rocker for a babe but for now it's my spot to just sit, realax, study, and read! Love the little pops of color we're slowly bringing in. We decided to leave most of our books at home because we didn't think we'd have space. Now I have an empty bookcase...oh well! I think we'll fill it up in no time.
My office. I have loved this little bookcase from Ikea for some time now. Spence let me splurge just a bit. Before we moved in I thought we only had 1 closet. So this was supposed to be my "closet". Well turns out we have lots of storage space (joy) and so I need to find a new plan for this little guy. Again we kinda just put stuff there for temporary fix. But it's a work in progress. 

Our little condo is finally feeling like home. We still have tons of work to do but I'm waiting for my Mom to come help me! Aren't Mom's the best!

  1. Love the new place! It looks like it has really high ceilings and the light is awesome! Also, the rocker turned out so cute! I love the fabric you picked out. Did the slipcover fit okay or did you have to alter it very much?

    1. Thanks Liz! I'm really loving the new place. It's funny the ceilings are so high we might have to buy a ladder. We're struggling changing light bulbs and such! I am in love with the rocker slipcover. It fit's perfectly. I still need to take it off and iron it but that will happen one day! Thanks for letting us buy it off you guys. The slip cover ended up being more than I was planning on so I don't know if we really saved that much money but I still love it!
