1.  Day 29:  Something You are Listening to

This is the record player I bought for Ben last Christmas and I love it.  Lately I’ve been listening to The Shins a lot.

2.  Day 25: Green

I finished making the curtains for Liam’s nursery this past weekend.  I made them using this Joel Dewberry fabric which is actually more of a blue-ish green.

3.  Day 27:  Something You Ate

I love edamame and I also love that it is especially good for me during pregnancy because it contains a lot of protein.

4.  Day 26:  Night

It may have taken all of Sunday night but we finished painting Liam’s nursery and I finished his crib skirt.  His little nursery is actually starting to look like a nursery.

5.  Day 23:  Your Shoes

These are actually some of my shoes and Ben’s shoes mixed together because we share a closet.

This month I am participating in the Instagram February Photo A Day challenge by FatMumslim and all of these photos were for the challenge.

Oh and all of these photos were taken with Instagram (iphone app).  If you are on Instagram follow me @SelenaFaye

1.  These swaddle blankets from Dwell Studio are too cute!

2.  I love The Shins and I think this Tad Carpenter poster is perfect for Liam’s nursery.

3.  Socks the Fox from Blabla with his little tie on is precious.

9.  This baby blanket from Yellow Plum Blossoms via Etsy is too cute.

Here are a couple things I wouldn’t mind for my birthday:

2.  Minnetonka Thunderbird II Moccasins via Zappos

3.  Either of these Shins albums on vinyl would be lovely.

4.  These Urbanears headphones from Urban Outfitters would be nice, since our tiny baby will be able to hear music soon.

5.  The Timex Weekender

6.  Retro Dollie Earrings via ModCloth

7.  Clinique Happy Heart (This is my favorite and I am out!)

8.  Under the Big Top Clutch in Rust via The Dainty Squid (I love this clutch almost as much as I love her blog, check it out at The Dainty Squid.

9.  I know it is pretty much too cold for these now but I love the Unleash the Fashion Flat via Modcloth.

10.  I am crossing my fingers that my 2nd trimester will bring me more creativity and energy and if it does I would love to take this e-course by Rachel Denbow of Smile and Wave.

I hope everyone has a good Thursday!

When Ben (my husband) and I first started hanging out he tried to win my heart by giving me two cds.  He gave me his band’s (Young Agent Jones) recent cd and a mixed cd.  It worked.  Also this cd introduced me to The Shins, which is now one of my favorite bands.  I’m sure my best friend Nikki got so sick of hearing these cds during our 30 minute commute to and from the W (Mississippi University for Women).
