Baby Boy Update

Woah, Baby!! Hello belly....

How far along: 25 weeks + 2 days

Gender: Boy

Weight gain: 15 lbs. 

Belly Measures: 26 cm. today! Right on track

Maternity clothes: I am currently still able to mix + match. Some days I can still wear my non-maternity jeans [ woohoo! ] and some days not so much [ like above photo, haha ]. I do however LOVE maternity shirts :)

Sleep: A good night's sleep is hard to come by lately. I'm finding it hard to get comfortable + turn from one side to the other. [Yay, pregnancy] I believe it is time to break out the body pillow ;)

Best moment this month: Energy!! Until out of nowhere i'm exhausted and have to revert to bed ASAP LOL. 

Worst moment this month: My daughter's drama is in full force! Whining and not listening... it's only been a few days and we are addressing it. SO far today has been much better :)

Miss anything: I miss the opportunity to drink a glass of wine or two, here and there. Other than that I'm thoroughly enjoying growing this baby boy + wouldn't trade it for anything :]

Movement: YES! This boy can kick... Must get his skills from daddy ;) Some days are less than others, but my favorite time of day is laying in bed at night feeling him move.

Cravings: Popcorn, green veggies, Passion Tea from Starbucks, Milk, Mcdonald's Breakfast [Shhh!] 

Looking forward to: I am looking forward to finishing the baby nursery and revealing it to family + friends. My husband and I are working hard to get it done slowly, but surely. I also can't wait to see if baby boy has lots of hair, no hair, dark or light hair, and if he will have blue eyes like Big Sister did :]

[ Oakley is looking forward to little bro too! ]

[ He needs a football buddy ;) ]

[ I also just picked this up last night from a ThirtyOne consultant! LOVE it. Who says little boys can't be fun too?!  ]

XOXO!

Super Productive Super Bowl Weekend

From the time we woke up Saturday morning we were incredibly busy... and it was GREAT! We even were able to sleep in until 8:30! ;) Avary had dance class and right after we did a quick family lunch outing. We headed straight to Lowe's to pick out spray paint for a fun household decor DIY project I've been putting off [forever].

[ Step 1: Tape edges of mirrors. ]

[Step 2: Make Avary feel like my BIG helper. ]

[ Step 3: Spray 2 coats and let dry. ]

Once these are hung up in the house where they belong I will show them off. I absolutely LOVE the way the green mirror turned out and the POP it gives my [dull] front living room. 

After an afternoon of car shopping [cannot wait to purchase] we headed home to finish up some painting in the baby nursery. It does not look like much but I am totally happy the paint is 3/4 of the way done. Next weekend is the accent wall and furniture arrangement!! 

[ 'Polar White' walls for our soft, woodland themed nursery. ]

[ And Avary got into some of Dawson's collection of toys already ;) ]

Sunday consisted of sleeping in again!! and then watching the Kitten Bowl on the Hallmark Channel. My poor child wants a kitty cat sooo bad. [ Not gonna happen.] Avary and her dad went to Lowe's [again...] and bought plants and flowers for the front yard and they went to work while I prepared a yummy - Sausage Beer Cheese Dip for a Super Bowl Party later in the evening. Seemed like a fair trade to me.... my husband even pre- cut the onions for me. [Yes, he's the best.]

[Kitten Bowl. Pajamas. And crazy hair. ]

[ She had a great time helping out. aka digging holes ;) ]

Before heading out to the Super Bowl Party we swung by Grandma and Papa's for a visit. Av rode her new electric scooter, ate apples and oranges and made silly faces for Papa. 

[ Silly girl + Papa ]

[ And we couldn't forget about Dawson this Super Bowl. Love Milestone Cards + they had this adorable FREE printable available. WIN! ]

Until next time! XOXO
