Project - Day 31

Can't believe it's the last day of March and hopefully very soon we'll be meeting our little guy! I'm so ready to see his little face! I thought it would be fitting to end the project with one last belly shot, it's gotten BIG!

Thanks for following along over the last month. I'm going to enjoy looking back over the photos in the future to see the little things in life we were doing before our son joined our little family.

Posting will probably be a little non-existent over the next month, but hopefully it won't take too long to get back in the routine. I'll definitely keep you posted on Jake's arrival.

Project - Day 30

I might not have mentioned, but after our house didn't sell and learning of the new addition to the family, we started on quite a few projects in the house to make it more livable. One of the projects was to turn our formal dining room into a den. We maybe used the room 3 times over the past 4 years and thought the space could be utilized much better. So, we embarked on selling the dining room set. Once that was sold, I needed a place to store all our formal china and serving pieces. My hubs created and built a wonderful storage solution for me, and last night I was finally able to unpack lots and lots of boxes that had been sitting in the corner of the room for months. Now we are finally getting to the point of being able to furnish the room! Took a few pictures of the madness from last night, so much packing paper!

Project - Day 17

I didn't get any pictures yesterday. However, we were able to check another 'getting ready for baby' item of the list. We visited with the pediatrics office we'll be taking our little one for potentially the next 21 years!

The picture I've included, I took this morning in my work cube (can't wait to get a break from cube world). It's a pin from a fantastic trip to Savannah, GA that I took last year for a dear friend's bachelorette party. That was such a fun weekend with lots of green everywhere. Hope everyone has a happy St. Patty's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

The hubs and I we're both in nesting mode this weekend as we tackled the job of organizing and purging our closet. The hubs did a fantastic job installing a new shelving system in our closet, but then it was time to go through the piles of clothes. We successfully purged and organized our closet by Sunday evening! I've included a few pictures of the madness and our crazy dog in the middle of the chaos.

Project - Day 8

Little bits of heaven and just as easy to make as cookies with store bought cookie dough. There are only 3 ingredients involved...Nutella, eggs, and all purpose flour. The recipe includes a 4th ingredient (nuts or cinnamon), but I left that out. The recipe can be found here, you must try!
