Pink Prettiness

Big news in our household: SHE is standing on her own!  My life is about to change!

Anyways, enough about the cool stuff my baby is doing (can you tell I am a proud Mom?).  I am a planner, always have been.  I like to have control and organization-it helps keep me a bit sane.  So when my husband and I found out I was pregnant I wanted to find out the sex of the baby and from the very beginning I knew in my heart of hearts we were having a girl.  Call it Mother's intuition if you will.  So when the ultrasound made it official my husband became immediately worried-everything was going to be PINK.  What makes it worse-I llllloooovvvvveeeee the color pink.

So I promised him I wouldn't paint the nursery pink, wouldn't dress HER in too many pink clothes, and keep all the baby stuff neutral.  And, well, I've kept 2 of those promises.  SHE wears pink and lots of it.  So it got me thinking: "How can I make pink adult?"  More importantly: "How can I convince the hubby?"  Well, show him these super cute pink rooms for staters.

Just the right amount of pink... and gold!

  2. Tracy~ Unfortunately I lost the pink room debate. As my husband said "we are painting it a color for a boy someday." But I got my pink in her room in bits-I'll be posting pictures next week so be sure to check it out.

  4. Pink accessories are a good compromise until she hits the tweens and then she will probably want pinkness everywhere!
