Getting Ready....

Well, we officially have a "start" to a nursery.  I painted the walls last week (holy cow, that's hard to do with a baby inside the tummy!)  My back hurt so badly each night after I was done.  Luckily I did it in two days.  And Pac only had to hear me complain about it for two days. :)  We've finally gotten the crib and dresser set up, and I love the bedding! You can't really tell, but the wall behind the crib is a very pretty purple color. It's almost a pastel, but just dark enough to be bold as well. It compliments the cherry hugh that is in the furniture.

Almost done!!!

Finishing up the crib...

Boomer loves cardboard. Or anything stiff that he could possibly rip apart. He found a little cardboard booklet attached to the front piece of the crib and went to town. At least he was finally focused on something! 

So, this picture stinks. But, it's the show more of the contrast in color. 



Here is the crib against the wall. This work is definitely still in progress! But, at least I can take a break from it for a month or so and just relax. Just a couple more months of teaching....

We've had some requests for baby bump pics.  Here you go! I hope they are all they're cracked up to be! I've tried hard to get a pic for each month, and so far I've done well! The bigger I get though, the more picky I am about making sure it's a good picture.  Call me vain, I don't care. I'm pregnant. lol!

1 Month. Awkward Face. "Is the flash on honey?"

2 Months.  I thought to myself..."how cute would it be if I wore the same outfit in all of the pregnant by month pics we take?!"  After realizing I'd have to change out of what i was already wearing that day, I quickly did not care anymore about this idea. So, that's why Month 1 and 2 look the exact same. I promise, I did not take them in the same night.

3 Months.  We had just gotten home from Pac's Family Christmas party, so if I look tired, it's cause I definitely am. I remember leaving early cause my body had had enough. I'm still not showing very much at this point, but it was still worth it to take the pic.

This pic is my epic fail. Especially because it's the one that's the cutest so far! I should be holding up a 4, but apparently my brain had something else in mind.

This is ACTUALLY what I looked like at 4 months.

I messed up on my 4 month pic the first time we took it, and accidentally held up a 5 instead of a 4.  It works out though cause it's cute and currently my FB pic. We re-took it, and that's the one in the yellow, but I'm acutally like 4.5 months in the real one. We are also headed to a Superbowl party, and I may have checked appetizer we were bringing to make sure it wasn't poisoned ;) I'll add more pictures later.  I'll tell you this though, this little girl is already determined to make her presence known!!! Let's see, feeling a baby move inside you? Yup, best, feeling, ever.

Pac is going to be out of town this week. I joke with him that it's like I'm single again for the days that he's gone.  It feels like it anyway!!! He has a 20 Group meeting is Montana for work. Yeah... Montana.... lucky him right? I hope it's not too cold!  On top of the fact that he's going to Montana and not some warm state like California or Florida, this is the week during the year that he usually goes down to Las Vegas and watches the Nascar race.  He Looooves Nascar!  I feel so bad he doesn't get to go (I don't go cause I most likely wouldn't enjoy it as much.) But ya gotta do what ya gotta do!  Wish him luck!!!!
