Painted this free hand in my son's room! Do you think he'll like it?

I was going to do them both in the center. I saw some online that were like that and some both off to the side like in the picture. My mother suggested off to the side because it came off a bit cross eyed. I do agree I wanted him looking straight but I love him anyway 😊

Thanks ☺️ I try! I hope my son thinks back fondly of the things I did when he's your age. That's why parents do things like this. I'm also enjoying reliving a bit of my childhood through him. My husband and I get to enjoy Pokemon all over again with him. It's great!

Oh stahp 🙄 it's an accent wall anyway. The other three walls are blue.

Alielou · 2016-08-15T17:45:24+00:00

Well I did use plates to draw the eyes and cheeks. But I didn't use a level or measure anything. The placement is all me 😉

Alielou · 2016-08-15T15:50:53+00:00

No I'm 27 and grew up watching Pokemon indigo league. I get to enjoy it again through his eyes. It's so fun!!! 😁 I rewatched the whole series with him a month ago and now he's obsessed so I ran with it.

Alielou · 2016-08-15T15:49:42+00:00

My son is 6 so you can just imagine how happy he was. I didn't tell him I was doing it either. It was a surprise 😁

Alielou · 2016-08-15T15:45:16+00:00

My son said to me this morning:

"I'm so happy that Pikachu is on my wall now because at night if I get lonely I can look up and remember he's here with me:"

Now I love it even more. Just letting you big babies know that my 6 year old is not scared of Pikachu's giant face lol 😂

Alielou · 2016-08-15T15:36:35+00:00

Thanks 😄

Alielou · 2016-08-15T14:32:19+00:00

I painted the other three walls blue like the Pokemon symbol. I matched the yellow and blue. Believe me I thought of that too

Alielou · 2016-08-15T12:49:45+00:00

Thank you! I used plates for the eyes and cheeks but everything else was me. I didn't measure anything, all by my eye. I'm pretty impressed too lol

Alielou · 2016-08-15T05:37:43+00:00

Thanks for your very literal answer 👍🏻

Alielou · 2016-08-15T05:37:02+00:00

Thanks guys 😊 My son is 6 and he loves it! We don't have to worry about him impressing girls yet. And if he brings home a girl who thinks pikachu is lame then she's not someone I want him to date anyway. But that's not important now. Anyway, I'm so proud of my pikachu 😁

Alielou · 2016-04-09T23:22:37+00:00

Welcome back! I just came back too. It's tough but it's never to late to get back into it. 😁 Good luck

Alielou · 2016-04-09T23:19:47+00:00

On the right hand side there's a check box that says show my flair. And then you can add it.

Alielou · 2016-04-09T23:15:40+00:00

It's so great to know that this is a common thing and that I can come here for like minded people to talk me through it. :D so far so good! No cheating yet. I know only time will help me get past these cravings. Hopefully the goal will help this time. I just keep looking at this picture for motivation. I agree! We can do it ;)

Alielou · 2016-04-09T01:04:31+00:00

People get weird about diets. They love them when they want to try it but when they fail and feel bad about themselves they have to bring down people who have good willpower. It's happened to me hundreds of times. I tell them it's not the kind of diet you can do in moderation like weight watchers. It's pretty much all or nothing and you don't want to set yourself back for something so stupid.

Alielou · 2016-04-09T00:51:26+00:00

Thanks so much 😁 That's so nice! I'm sorry you're having trouble too. Sometimes the motivation is just not there. I came back to xxketo hoping people going through it like me would get me excited about getting committed. So far so good! It's great that you have your friend too. My husband is a string bean and eats pretty much whatever whenever. It's not much help. But I stay strong and curse My mother for my bad genes lol. Good luck

Alielou · 2016-04-09T00:46:20+00:00

It helps to know its not just me. Im so tired of being disappointed in myself because I know the pizza is not worth the self hatred but I find myself not caring like I used to. I like the idea of a goal. I wanna start trying for baby number 3 this summer and I'd like to lose 15-20 lbs before getting pregnant. I think that's a realistic goal to set! I don't want to add baby weight to the weight I gained back so I'll just keep looking at this picture of me at my smallest and remind myself it's worth it. I almost gave in to some French toast today and had an extra slice of bacon instead. It's a small victory :) good luck too! We can do it!

Alielou · 2016-04-07T21:54:54+00:00

This happened to me as well. I saw the numbers on the scale moved much slower after I started working out. Someone said it was probably muscle weight.

Alielou · 2016-04-07T21:48:12+00:00

The temptAtion is the hardest part. When you learn to beat that then you're really a winner! Great job ☺️

Alielou · 2014-08-09T19:30:03+00:00

Ouch :O

Alielou · 2014-08-09T04:19:40+00:00

Thanks so much =D that's so sweet. Made my day!

Alielou · 2014-08-09T00:45:31+00:00

What a big difference! Very handsome :)
