Baby Update

It's been 31 weeks already!  The days, weeks and months have flown by!  I miss having Alex and Emily home during the day...especially during this time of year.  I love going to the park and taking their pictures...but since they're at school...you just get a picture of me...sorry!  {courtesy of the self-timer!}

{Do I remind you of certain big purple dinosaur?  Ha!}

I'm still feeling really good...except that it takes some effort to get up off the couch and go to the bathroom...over and over again!  I pretty much ran out of breath when I rode my bike around the block yesterday!  Alex and Emily were each at a friend's house after school...and I rode my bike to get them when it was time to come home...I'm sure that was something to see!  I'm starting to lose motivation on cleaning out closets and painting...but I still hope to get to that in the next two months!  We'd like to paint the kids' bathroom and our bedroom...and finally have the upstairs pretty much in order.  It feels good to have so much accomplished...however...I have a feeling keeping up with the laundry and keeping the beds made every day is about to fall to the wayside when the little one arrives! 

But...for now...I'm enjoying it!

We finally got the crib and dresser up...and I hung a couple things on the wall...it's starting to feel like a sweet little nursery!

I usually have no idea when it comes to decorating...I like to walk around Target, Hobby Lobby and even flea markets or fun little stores and hope that something jumps out that I love! 

Yesterday I went to Hobby Lobby and did just that!  I found the little shelf with picture frame that I liked...although it had plain white peg hooks...so I bought some glass knobs, replaced them for the pegs...and had to saw off the extra screw length from the knobs in the back...and I'm happy with how it looks now!

I also found the little metal sign too...it has the quote Star light, Star bright...and of course I can't wait to meet the little princess who will fit into the sleeper soon! 

Until then...I'll try and keep getting things organized and cleaned out...and definitely take some nice long naps!
