New website IKEA LIVE shows us IKEA's affordable functional furnishings incorporated into real homes...so interesting how people blend IKEA stuff into their spaces, making things their own...the hallmark of true style... I'm digging these digs for kids...

In a couple of weeks, Scott and I have some very exciting news to share (no, we are not having a baby). Last month I said to Scott excitedly "guess what?" to which he answered in a happy voice, "you're pregnant?" Even though he's sweet to sound excited, we are both in a different stage in our lives, past the little baby stage, focusing on striking that balance between busy family home and expanding our careers, plus we already have 5 wonderful kids between us.  My kitchen is going to be painted today (stressed over colors all weekend, even colorists stress, don't you feel better now?)...stay tuned...♣ (this stands for I am one lucky girl)...
