Bathing Beauties

Most nights you can find these little bathing beauties in our tub...

Carter has always loved the bath...

And Emme is following in her big sisters footsteps...
While they get a nice soak in the tub I thought I would share our bathroom with you (I know it's been awhile since the last "Home Tour" post, but I was enjoying sharing so thanks for indulging me).

I think bathrooms are one of the rooms in a home that can go either way, being fabulous or functional. A strictly functional bathroom is not a deal breaker in a home, but if you wind up with one that feels a little on the fabulous side it's like an added bonus. When we checked out our current digs the girls/guest bathroom was a pleasant surprise...

It is an older home, which usually means a slightly neglected and outdated bath. But much to my surprise this one had been spruced up and I loved the perfect mix of vintage and modern...

Lot's of white and aqua, with a few splashes of pink, leave things feeling airy and girly...

I also love the under the counter top open shelving, it's the perfect spot for all those little bath critters and other necessities...

I'm also a fan of using something unexpected (like a bud vase) to hold something expected (like a toothbrush) I think it spruce's things up a bit...

But my favorite things about this bathroom is the print that I knew would be right at home the second I walked in. It serves to tie everything together perfectly. I have had these goldfish for a long time but have never loved them more than I do in this cozy little room (art by Henry Matisse)...

It's a happy little place and the perfect room for munchkin's to get squeaky clean! Oh I almost forgot the fish above reminded me I wanted to introduce you to the newest member of our family, Ruby...

She loves the water just as much as Carter and Emme so she fits right in!

I sure hope you give Ruby a better living environment than we gave poor little Beau in college! :)
Oh, and you kind of make me sick with all your bathroom cuteness... no one should be so cute & creative, it's just not fair! :)
