Our little bumble bee - Eliza's 1st Halloween, Happy Halloween!
Our little pumpkin - Eliza at 9 months, Happy Fall!
Our little white kitchen - it is FINALLY done. Beware if you want to re-paint your kitchen cabinets, it is time consuming and tedious but oh so worth it. We washed, sanded, primed, sanded, painted x2 -x3 coats! Then we added oil-rubbed bronze knobs and pulls that I love and we got at good ole' Tarjee for super cheap and I added a ticking stripe curtain to the window over the sink. For a whole new look on a budget we did it for less than $100. We still have big plans for the kitchen but phase one is now complete. Next we want to add new countertops, tile backsplash and beadboard and a new kitchen table, rug and light fixtures. Time and money is the determining factor here so for now I'll just say our kitchen is a work in progress. FYI, I am going for a coastal, cottage, countryish, frenchish, simple, clean, neutral and rustic look, this may take some time to achieve, haha!
Just in case you need a reminder of what it looked like before, here are some pictures of the old kitchen.

Wow, your kitchen looks awesome! It's amazing what some paint (and lots of hard work) can do!
Eliza is absolutely adorable. She is the cutest little bumble bee/pumpkin I've ever seen!
Loved Eliza as a bee. So cute. Your kitchen must have taken hours upon hours!! Great job guys.
Way to go, Mand!!! So much hard work- you did it! It looks so great. I love Eliza's costume and she looks so cute in the pumpkin.
Love the October photos of Eliza! Don't you just LOVE October? She is darling. Your kitchen looks great too!
She is the cutest little bumblebee, again love her shoes. The ones with her in the pumpkin hat too are too darn cute.
