I'm guessing it's pronounced Presley?

This goes beyond the name to the horrific pink, the "princess" plague, the Mrs. Derrick Adams soon to be Mama Adams self-description, the fact that the mother to be looks all of 18.

I dunno it could be like lee-ah at the end.

Mrs.Expchic

I was thinking Press-leah but your pronounciation  makes more sense.

FallinAgain

I'm in the f'ed up spelling of Presley stroller.

I can't read and I thought this was called, "Interesting Game."  I have been sitting here trying to figure out what the game is.  It's going to be one of those days. That room makes me sad.

buddhagouda

That is a horrific amount of pink.

FallinAgain

Oh, yeah, she's 21 and lists her hobbies as collecting Elvis shiit, so I think it's definitely Presley.

Gag me with the white walls, though the idea of using stuff from her nursery is cute.

mrsbaecker101108

that girl is going to have a hatred for her name as well as the color pink

If by interesting name you mean dreadful, yes! Why why why spell it like that??

FallinAgain

The white walls are the thing you dislike here?

notquiteblushing

Well that hasn't already been mentioned.  It makes the pink look even more Pepto colored.

FallinAgain

Why why why spell it like that??My guess is the thought process went like this:OMG!!! We're pg!!  Let's talk about names b/c that's funner than thinking about the fact that we're having a baby at 21.   Elvis is the coolest EVA! We should name the baby Presley!!!  But, oh, no what if it's a girl?  Presley is a boy's name.    I know!!  We'll spell it Preslea!!!!!  That's makes it girly!!!!!!!!

I'm not a huge fan of Preslea, but it almost sounds like a normal name with an only slightly unusual spelling compared to most of what we get.  

Mrs.Expchic

what kind of packrat keeps stuff from a 22 yr old nursery?  I'm ticking.  I'm ticking.

mrsbaecker101108

It's just too much pink against the white.  I can understand not painting if they don't own, but it def. needs more than just pink in the room.

I'm irritated by the lopsided letters, they must have access to a level, ruler or something.

FallinAgain

I'm ticking with you on that, Exp.

When my friend had Liam the DTS, her MIL brought out a bunch of her H's old baby stuff.  He was 40 or 41 at the time.  She had saved some of his clothes and toys for that long.  I have a feeling I'm going to be that packratty.

KristenBtobe

My mom kept some of my outfits, booties, special toys etc. But none of the decor.

buddhagouda

My mom has one or two outfits with special memories saved from my brother and I being babies. I'd say that's fairly normal. Saving a whole nursery's worth of stuff, however, is GROSS.

buddhagouda

Thank you, Camaro, for that riveting bit of info that we would otherwise not have known.

Mrs.Expchic

Look Buddha's talking to herself again.

confession: I saw the clown painting I grew up having on my wall at my 'rents last night and I took it. IT'S A CLOWN. But I like it. He's riding a unicycle and juggling, not slicing open the kiddie's throats.

pdxmouse

But Tasty you'll give your kid a false sense of safety around clowns. That's where the danger lies. Might as well let them think hippos are cute and cuddly at that point.

FallinAgain

I totally get saving a special item or two, but I think she's talking about the pictures, etc., which don't look esp. special.  

Vinny08

Ughhhh.  Clowns from the '70s.  I just got the chills. I'll admit it.  I have a toy in Andy's room that I grew up with.  He doesn't give it the time of day, but it is there regardless.

tastyburger

Mouse, I grew up w. that pic, loving the circus, AND having clowns at my 8th b-day party and I still have a healthy mistrust and dislike for clowns as an adult.

Mrs.Expchic

Hopefully, you took it to burn it, Tasty?
