The cute knobs I got from Anthropologie.
Next up: hanging my West Elm capiz shell chandelier. I'm on the hunt for a cool rug and some curtains. Any ideas?

Join us on our journey as I learn how to be a doctor and a wife, long to be a mother, and seek out God's plan in it all.
About Me
- Dr. Erin and Mr. Heath
- Oklahoma

Our Journey
01/07 - Decide to start trying. Assumed we would have a baby in October. Saw my OB/GYN who told me to call him in a few months when we were pregnant.
03/07 - Started charting using basal body temps and "tried harder". Had a period every month, 28th day, like clock-work.
01/08 - Realized something must be wrong and returned to my doc's office.
02/08 - Sperm analysis (SA) shows 0% morphology, everything else normal. Failed independent adoption days after finding out SA results.
03/08 - Repeat (SA) still with 0% morphology. Heath goes to a urologist who finds no abnormalities. Erin has bloodwork - all normal.
05/08 - First appt with Reproductive Endocrinologist. We were told we would only get pregnant through IVF. Tried for financing - weren't approved.
08/08 - Awaiting decision from birth mother about independent adoption #2.
09/08 - Failed adoption #2. Don't know where to turn next.
01/09 - Decide to foster, with the intention of adopting. Paperwork turned in and waiting for a home study
02/09 - Assigned a case worker, have a home study and told we will likely have a placement in May/June.
03/09 - Start DHS parenting classes. Home study begins. We're told we could have a placement this month!
04/09 - Sign our contract with DHS. Lots of waiting. Things not happening as quickly as we had hoped.
05/09 - hoping this will be the month...
05/08/09 - Take little J home with us. 5 days old and love at first sight!

AMAZING! That is one gorgeous piece and you've restored it beautifully, while keeping it true to its character. And those Anthro knobs are just lovely. Fab job, E!!
Bleeeaaaach. That's funny. Bed is from Pottery Barn of course! (I WISH it was from Wal-Mart!) :)
LOVE IT!!!!
Very pretty, how is it possible that re-staining it can make it even look like more of an antique???
BTW--that's definitely a good thing!
: )
I love this desk. I want something small like this.
