One resent opportunity for these two to hash-it-out presented itself this week. We are getting new cellular blinds in Leo's room that are also light blocking (thanks for the tip Kristin). I received the color samples in the mail last night and undertook the decision making process. Here's a little clip of how that went....
First, envision me trying to hold open multiple accordion-style samples next to the wall color, the window trim, and the valance. I ask Kevin, "Which one do you like?" and him saying, "I really can't tell the difference." To which I reply, "Are you kidding me, this one has more tan and this one has more gray." His final input was, "I like the white one, which one has more white?"
As I started to feel Ms. Serious Business take control of the situation.... I reminded myself, life really is too short to be overly invested in slight color differences and how invested my husband is in choosing one.
And to balance this post off I will share that my inner child had a great time with Leo splish-splashing in the bath! That kid can kick! Water all over the floor all over me, and one happy, beautiful, baby boy.
I do love my boys.
i know it is crazy, but i tape them to the window and watch the colors change with the light and time of day...that said i do like the blinds i chose.
ReplyDeleteooohhhh, picking out colors! I, too, tape them to the wall and follow them through 24 hours. Leo is getting SO big.
ReplyDeleteHe is such a big boy, I remember the denim drapes I made for Quincy's nursery in that house. Loved them because they kept out the light. We use them in the kids rooms in our current house and they have helped A Lot with light, especially this time of year :) Lots of moms are in your boat best not to let the little things get to you have lots of time for those in the years to come :)
