Our Nest In The City: mélange

13.9.12

love this idea for a doll house. better than buying one and when the child outgrows it, it's still useful furniture.

kids DO notice colour, though many people suspect they don't. What I think they don't notice is that it means anything negative. Lily is so drawn to her black IKEA boy doll and I think she prefers his rich colour (he's also wearing bright orange!). She notices he's different but not that it means much.
this makes me really scared for Oli.
Fall means everything-pumpkin. Everyone knows that. But smoothies + cream cheese? I was not aware!

Fun t-shirts supporting the adoption of a precious child into an awesome family? I'm in.
Nana Camp is a brilliant idea. I think it would be easy to convince my parents as well as Brad's to sign on for 1 week a summer each :)
I love when people write Dear___ letters. This Back to School version is so cute and sassy and real. I don't have kids who wear gym shoes or who are in middle school, but I was still nodding with approval.
When it comes to TV, I like Grey's Anatomy but I can live without it. I try not to miss a Habs hockey game on Saturday night, but as long as I know the score I'm good. I never followed cult favourites like The Bachelor/Bachelorette, but when it comes to Downton Abbey... I come undone! Season three peeps. Get on it.
