Finding Gifts for Toddler Boys

So a few weeks ago, I received an invitation to my nephew's 2nd birthday party. And as I was thinking about his upcoming birthday, I was reminded of a dilemma that I encounter annually: I don't know how to shop for boys! I first ran across this issue when we attended Tinkerbell's friend's first birthday party. We went the store all ready to shop, and that's when it hit me.

I Had a Makeover!

After several weeks of enduring BLAH appearance on my blog, I finally sat down (for several hours, I must admit) to put together a header and a logo for my page.  I added some color (just a dash!) and a little less rigid of a structure. I couldn't help myself--I had to use pink.  And I wanted to use a daisy, because to me they symbolize simplicity, freedom, calm, beauty.  And also because they are my favorite flower, of course! Hope you enjoy the makeover as much as I do!  (Comments appreciated, by the way)
