My sister Rachel came up for a few days and we had a blast shopping for baby girl things :)
We are pretty much set for newborn clothes now even though I want to just keep buying them because they are so little and cute!!!
We also painted the nursery - I wanted to do a Dr. Seuss theme but no go crazy with it - so I chose to follow the book "Oh, the places you'll go!" for the bright colors and fun quotes.
We chose a tiffany blue paint and I'm currently looking for some fun coral colored wall decor. I made a hot air balloon mobile for above the crib and framed some illustrations. We have to wait for the paint to set but then we can put the vinyl quote on the wall:
I've also been trying to take pictures of my belly every couple of weeks so I can eventually put them together in a time line sort of thing... or maybe a flip book... lol! I still haven't mastered the belly shot, its actually pretty difficult to take a side profile picture of yourself... who knew?
Here is what I have so far:
14 Weeks:
16 Weeks:
18 Weeks:
20 Weeks:
22 Weeks:
24 Weeks:
I keep having to remind myself that 24 weeks = 6 months. I think I'm either in some sort of denial or the time has just really creeped up on me. Luckily, I still feel like I'm able to stay on top of things for the most part and I'm not too uncomfortable yet.... although if I'm being totally honest, I'm not really looking forward to getting much bigger ;)
In upcoming news, Ryan and I are going to have a yard sale in a couple weeks that we've been working hard to get things ready for. And in Mid-October we will be visiting my family in Oregon for a week! We're excited to just relax and take our last vacation before vacationing becomes much more difficult :) Crabbing, camping and shopping here we come!!!
