Project #2

Yay! Another project successfully completed for Baby Girl's nursery. I found this beauty at the D.I. and thought, I'm going to give the whole DIY stuff a try and see if I'm cut out for it. This rocker was brown with orange cushions when I bought it. A little paint and new fabric and voila!!! Thank goodness for Vera to help with the sewing, but we had so much fun and the project didn't even involve any swear words on my part. That's a true success in my book. I'm getting so excited to meet this little girl!

Birthday Girl

I just had to post this picture. My adorable niece turned 2 recently, so we celebrated in red, white and blue! My sister had the cutest party for her. And is this not the cutest red,white and blue outfit you've ever seen? Seriously, I was dying when my sister found this. It's safe to say I'm kind of obsessed with this little peanut!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATE!!! We love you!

We Love Ice Cream

What's a pregnant girl to do when she's in need of some ice cream?
Call her pregnant friend of course!  And she was in luck because her pregnant friend just so happened to be craving some ice cream as well. Thank goodness for Iceberg to take care of just  these types of situations.  And that is a "mini" shake in my had, although it is enormous. 

I'm just jealous that Caitlyn gets to meet her baby girl on Monday!! and I have to wait until October.  Good luck Cait!

Nursery

Baby Girl's nursery is underway. We are having so much fun getting ready for her! Erik put the crib together last night which made it even more real. Here is one of our first completed projects and I'm so excited about it! This dresser was in the the room that my sister and I shared when we were little. We tried our hand at spray paint and it turned out great. Now I have that pop of turquoise in the room that I hoped for. It is actually going to be our changing table, but we don't have all the accessories yet.
It's a good thing this project went well, it gave me the encouragment I need to tackle a couple more. I'm just feeling so domestic these days - the next few projects involve sewing (yikes). Thank goodness for Vera. Wish me luck!

My Belly

I feel weird about posting this picture. I don't know why, because I think prego pictures of other people are adorable. Anyway, this is for the few friends/fam who are not in Utah to see my body-expanding-transformation in person. 
And on another note, 
HaPpY 4th of JuLy weekend!
Hope you all have some fabulous summer fun!
