Pretty Purple Pansies

 Christmas was challenging this year.  Mostly good, with family and all that jazz, but I have been sick and sniffly for awhile, and it is taking its toll.  I am so tired ALL of the time.  I feel like the freight train of exhaustion has my number :)  So on a brighter note, the purple room is nearly done.  We need to paint the crown molding and hang art.  Here is the wall with the dark purple racing stripes :)


Here is an up close of them, so you can see the detailing.   Everyone thinks the room is really cute.


My most recent addition is the butterfly garden. I think it is cute.  I will be adding a little doorway and fairies up above the actual door, but for now this is the beginning of the fairy tale theme.   I decided that any age little girl that fits our criteria would enjoy it, even if I have to move the crib into the more neutral, yet still lovely blue room once it is finished.


And here is a slightly closer look.

That would certainly explain the freight train of exhaustion! But sick and tired also mean your body is working hard on creating a new life, so it actually balances out! Sorry. I love the purple room! I love you! I will keep you even more in my prayers!

That is such wonderful news! I have a friend with celiac and a history of infertility...her lone child came when she was doing atkins (before her celiac diagnosis) and was basically gluten-free. I'm so happy for you guys! The room looks amazing, too--I love the butterfly garden. What a lucky girl to have a magical room like that! :)
