One Week...

Until we meet our baby GIRL!!!

37 Weeks

Baby M @ 37 Weeks ( see...this shirt makes me look HUGE) Not much news to report except that it is getting closer. We've been busy this week so I haven't made much progess on the closet or her dresser but I'm sure by the end of the weekend it will be finished. (hopefully) Have a great weekend!

36 Weeks

Better late than never.....

Baby M at 36 weeks!

It must just be the picture & the shirt because I'm pretty sure I'm way bigger than that!

I almost finished with the room! Just a few more things and it will be done. I still need to organize the closet a little, hopefully I'll finish that this week.

Were pretty sure she has a name- 99 % sure- Although I keep changing my mind. I have until the 28th to decide :)

I FINALLY washed the crib sheet and put the bedding on the crib! My first time mom friends would be proud :) As soon as I finish things up and get the room back to order I'll take some pictures!

Here's Miss T showing off her chick shirt! Quite the little ham!

I'm a baby......

Since we only have about 3 weeks to go until baby M makes her appearance. I've started cleaning up some of the baby equipment. It's still to early to get it out, but I figured while I have the energy I should get it all sparkly and fresh. Last Tuesday afternoon I pulled out the pack n play to work on it. Tayten was in aw. She said, " what's that?" and I replied, " a bed for your baby sister". She thought about it for a minute and then said, " I'm a baby, I want in." So......

I put her in and she enjoyed it way to much. Now every time I get some sort of baby thing out she replies, " I'm like a baby." Hopefully once the newness wears off she won't like it so much any more! We can only hope :)

33 Weeks

33 Weeks Here's this week's news-

- We have a date set! Baby Girl Moseley will make her debut into the world on April 28 (if not before i guess)

- My current cravings are still those Keebler grasshopper cookies, but I've actually slowed down on them. They don't taste as good anymore.

- I think I'm running out of room to eat actually. I usually only eat little bits here and there now

- I finally had to ditch my rings. My fingers are to swollen by the end of the day and they were getting uncomfortable. Which, by the way makes Tayten sad. She keeps saying," Mommy's ring gone" and then asks me to go get it. I normally wear it on my pinky finger when she needs it. ( Yes, i know she's spoiled, but that's how I like her :) )

- The wall decorations that I ordered for the baby's room came yesterday, so now I have no excuse to start getting the room ready.

- I've ordered some cute baby things on Etsy, I'll show you soon

I think that's about it for this week.

6 more weeks to GO!!

AND...

Here's me and the girl before we went to Gymnastics's today!

32 Weeks

Baby M at 32 Weeks

I forgot to post a picture last week, and this picture is horrible.

I don't have much to report this week. I'm still working on baby girl's room. I've almost got the lamp shades finished and I have ordered some wall decorations. I have a few more things to create and then I think all of the craft projects will be done.

Then I can put the bedding together and fill the dressers and closest. Lots of organization to do!

She will be here before we know it!

30 Weeks!!

Baby M at 30 Weeks!

I've only got about 9 more weeks to go!

Baby is the size of a cabbage this week.

She's still currently nameless!

I've started finishing up the many craft projects I have going on for her room, but I haven't got the room together yet. There's still lots of boxes & bags just sitting in the crib.

I'm having heartburn something terrible and it's all day LONG!

Time is going so quick!

And of course...Here's Tayten's & I's weekly picture!

Have a great day!

DIY: Wall Art

This was so easy to do! If your needing some easy & cheap art for your walls you have got to try this. Remember the paper that I bought for baby girls room? It needed a frame, so here's what I did!
First: I picked up two frames which were half off and some paint at Hobby Lobby.
2. Take the entire frame apart. I painted the entire black part with some blue paint that matches the bedding.

3. Since it dried really quick I didn't have to wait to do the next step. I wanted to tone down the blue paint so I dapped small amounts of white paint onto a paper towel and rubbed it onto the frame creating a brushed appearance.

4. The almost completed project! ( I was getting excited at this point!!)

5. Add the paper and glass back into the frame. I also had to attach a picture hanger thing to the back so we could hang it.

6. Mission Complete! I also got the curtain's hung on Sunday, which make it look so much better. I just need to hem them a little since there a little long. I can't wait to put the bedding on the crib and see how it's all turning out.

I'm making two frames so that they can hang on either side of the window. This simple project took a total of about 15 min from start to finish and was less than $10 to make.

I can't wait to start on the next project :)

26 Weeks

Baby M at 26 weeks! Baby is the size of an English cucumber!

She's moving around a LOT

My current food obsession is Keebler Grasshopper cookies! They are just like the thin mint Girl Scout cookies. I'm in love with them.

I've started working on the baby's room & love the way it's turning out so far.

She still has NO name. I don't think we are any where close to coming up with one either.

I have a Dr's apt on Friday, I'm anxious to see how everything is going!

Weekend

We had a laid back weekend around here. On Saturday we went to a Creative Memories Party that my aunt had. I love CM's product which is scrapbooking things. I ordered a display board thing and I can't wait for it to come in. While we were at the party, Brandon painted the baby's room. I was nervous about the color but it turned out great, and goes with the bedding wonderfully! Dresser/changing table

(that still has Tayten's clothes in it)
Crib

Then on Sunday we put the crib together and moved the dresser in there. We ran out of time to put together Tayten's new dresser, but we wanted to make sure everything would fit in there. I still have a nightstand and a bookshelf to add and I think were good.

The paint still looks orange in the pictures but I think it's safe to call it coral pink. The room is very very small so it hard to take good pictures, but I like what we've got so far!

We have a busy week this week, so I have lots to blog about!

Baby Girl's Room

Finally........

Here are my "plans" for Baby Girl's room!

(she needs a name, I'm tired of calling her baby girl!)

I decided to go with the color scheme of.....

Blue, Green & Pink.

I hoping it all comes together as well as I have planned.

First- The bedding. When I ordered it online I wasn't sure about it but went ahead with it since it was the only thing I found that I liked. I was really worried about the white in the bedding not matching the crib. My crib is white but it's pottery barn white, so bright white's look funny with it. Anyway, it came and I love it!

This is a close up of the crib skirt.

The sheet that came is blue, and the bumpers are white with blue trim and dots of all three colors.

Second- Extra Fabric. I set out for Jo-Anne's today looking for some coordinating fabric to match the bedding. I have some BIG plans in the works, and was hoping to find something cute. I decided to just go with solid colors for now and work in some prints (maybe). I'm feeling really creative so hopefully I can make some cute things.

I'll post my creative side as soon as I start on it!

Third- Paint. I was having all kinds of trouble trying to figure out what/how to paint the room. It's a very cozy looking room and it has angled walls and such. I took the bedding with me to Menard's and decided to paint the walls the pink/salmon color. It's not a bright pink or a pastel pink. Maybe salmon is the best way to describe it. The trim will be primitive white. I hoping it looks okay once it's finished, which will hopefully be on Saturday!!

The paint samples look orange in the picture, but I promise it's not.

Fourth- Extras. I went to my favorite store, Hobby Lobby looking for some matching paper. Above is what I found. I thinking about framing them in big frames for some cute wall art.

I also picked up two lamps on clearance at Target. One is a floor lamp and the other is a table lamp. I'm going to revamp the shades to make them match as well. The only other thing that I have picked up is a blue distressed picture frame that I got at Marshall's the other day!

Of course, I have lots more ideas for the room, but they are hard to explain, so when I do them I'll post about them as well.

I'm excited to see it all come together, but first I have a lot of crating to do!

Hope you all like it as much as I do, and if you have any decorating idea's leave me a comment I love to hear them!

I post a picture of the painted room, once it's finished!

25 Weeks

It's been a while since I last posted a weekly photo so here they are!

First up is Tayten and I's weekly photo

Then it's Tayten's turn. She never misses an opportunity to get her picture taken
Here it is: 25 Weeks

Please excuse how horrible I look.

I had just returned home from shopping with my mom all day and I am tired.

I can't believe were at 25 weeks already. Time is going so fast. Everything seems to be going great and I finally started on baby girls room. I'm getting excited to see how it's all going to come together.

We still haven't picked out a name. We have made it to the letter "M" in the baby name book.

This past week I've been very tired but I think my body is still working on catching up from running nonstop since the 7th.

I think that's all for now.

PS. I'm still working a post that will reveal the colors for baby girls room!

Future Gymnast?

I didn't get around to getting a picture taken this morning, but I did manage to figure out how to upload the video clip. I have a ton more but they take forever to load so I'll just do one.

This is what she doe's in my belly all day, especially when I lay down at night :)

I think we may have another future gymnast on our hands.

Cindy the ultrasound tech. was trying to get her to flip over in this video. She did this for about a minute or so before she finally figured out that was not going to work!

It's a.........................

GIRL!!!!!! Her hands were always by her face.
Sweet little baby feet

We couldn't be more excited for this baby GIRL.
It's going to be so fun to have two girls to dress up. I told Brandon that this means I really need to learn to make hair bows now! I think I may have a winter project lined up!

So far, she is still name less and probably will be for a while. I'm open for suggestions!!

I have lots of video clips that I'll try to post tomorrow if I can get it to work!

20 Weeks & gymnastics

Can you BELIEVE it ?

Half way there all ready!! Baby M at 20 weeks

I forgot to post a picture the last two weeks, but there isn't much to update! I still haven't cleaned out the room, but as soon as Christmas is over I'm on it!

Here are a few shots from gymnastics today. Tayten loves Mrs. Christie so much, it so cute to see her excitement each Wednesday morning. It's amazing how much she has changed since she started going each week.

Arm Circles

Jumping on the BIG Trampoline

Walking the balance beam in her "classroom"

Swinging on the rings

16 Weeks & Starbucks

Baby M at 16 weeks

• Currently the size of an avocado
• Still eating boxes of nerds but I've laid off KFC
• My back is currently KILLING ME. I don't know what I did but it has hurt for the last few weeks. It feels like it's on fire.
• I'm starting to think about names...I mean I went upstairs and dug out the baby name book.
• No longer wearing regular jeans, they are way to uncomfortable
  

Every Wednesday when I get ready to have my picture taken, Tayten always insists on having hers taken, so here is her weekly picture before gymnastics!

I don't have a clue what she's looking at but she is saying,"cheese"

I probably should have added Starbucks to my craving list, but I didn't because I crave Starbucks even when I'm not pregnant. Last Friday night Brandon and I swung through the Starbucks drive through to get our mocha's. You need to try the White Chocolate Mocha!!Anyway, after the lady handed us our drinks, and we drove away Tayten says," Where's my mocha?" We about died laughing! Apparently I/we go there a lot because she now can spot a green Starbucks sign from a mile away and always says," Mocha?"

Anyway, next time your by a Starbucks try:
Salted Carmel Hot Chocolate
Carmel Apple Spice
or a
White Chocolate Mocha!
They are delicious!

12 Weeks

Baby Moseley at 12 Weeks

It's hard to believe that it's been twelve weeks already. I don't have much to report except that my latest craving has been Jolly Ranchers. I would suck on those things all day if I could handle the way they make your teeth feel.

I'm going to try to do a update each week so when I print my blog book it will all be there.

I now interupt you regular scheduled program....

To.......

Announce.........

(insert drum roll)

BIG SISTER TAYTEN

We are so very very excited to announce that Baby Moseley will be joining us some where around May 3!!

Many more updates to come!!
