Nursery Pics

Here are some updated pictures of the nursery. I have a few blankets left to tie and a few odds and ends to get ready but I think we are prepared for her arrival!
I am planning on switching out these red and black bins for pink and green ones. We needed to get her room organized and the red and black were the ones I had on hand.

Ta Da!

The bathroom is pretty much done! There are a few odds and ends but for the most part it is complete. I love it!



This is one of the coolest features of the new bathroom. The mirror is a two-way mirror and what you are seeing is the TV that is behind the mirror. Aaron knows I love to watch the news in the mornings while I am getting ready so he came up with this awesome design. Thanks again to all the family and friends that helped us get to this point!

Preview

I have been such a slacker about updating the blog lately but I am planning on posting some more stuff soon:

1. Updated pictures of the nursery will all the great stuff we have been getting at baby showers

2. Updated pictures of the basement, it really is looking amazing

3. Updated pictures of the giant belly- 33 weeks and counting!

Progress

Thanks to my Dad and my sister we have made some progress on the basement! Aaron has been working so hard to get everything done before the baby comes but it is too much work for 1 person. My Dad and sister came to the rescue and the three of them got the entire bathroom grouted. It was a ton of work and it took them all day but it looks amazing. Aaron and I are planning on working all weekend to get the rest of the work in the bathroom done (not that I am much help). Anyway, thanks Dad, thanks Britt! We appreciate your help so much.

Big Week

We have had a busy week around here! On Saturday my wonderful sister, amazing friend Brandey and Brandey's amazing mom Cindey threw me an awesome baby shower. This little girl got so much stuff, she will be so spoiled.



We had great food:


It was so nice to see friends and family that I have not seen in a long time:







I wish I would have gotten more pictures of everyone that came. I think I was a bit distracted by all the chatting, eating, and present opening.

There were lots of kids running around which was one of the best parts for me. My sister drove all the way from Idaho with her two youngest Brooklyn and Sam. It was so good to spend some time with them but they are growing up too fast and it makes me sad.









I have to highlight this beautiful sweater. I wish I had talent and patience like this. My friend Shay knitted this sweater and the one above that her beautiful daughter is wearing.



I am so grateful for so much love and support for this little one. People never cease to amaze me with their generosity. Thank you everyone!

Help me out please

Aaron and I are in a food rut. We can never decide on what to have for dinner. We usually end up grabbing some unhealthy fast food. Please give me some good dinner ideas so we can stay home and eat! Thanks!

Update

I know I haven't posted anything for a while and that is because there really isn't anything exciting going on. I had a Dr. appt yesterday and I am measuring right at 30 weeks. The baby's heartbeat sounds great and she is doing well. I can't believe I only have 2 1/2 months left. We are getting really excited for her to be here. I am finally feeling better. I am only throwing up about once a week now which is a huge improvement! I have more energy and things have been a bit easier. That's all that is happening here.
