Thanks Aunt Jessie!

What a cute card!!!

Aaden carried it around all day yesterday!

:)

and the renovation begins ...

Today we officially officially started painting Livi's room!!!!
It is so far exactly what I envisioned! The color is the most perfect shade ... and I couldn't be happier.

My sweet Hubs even said, and I quote, "What a great color! You did a good job picking it out!!!!
WOW! What a compliment.

Thank you sweet Hubs!



I didn't get to paint a ton, but I was the first to touch paint to the walls with a sweet little tribute to my precious girl.

Isn't the dress cute??
My friend from college sent me a WHOLE BOX of winter maternity clothes. Seriously a blessing that made me cry! I was expecting a couple pieces and not a whole wardrobe.

THANK YOU ALYSSA!!


A special thanks to Hubs, Grandad, & Nana who painted until the room was complete! Not just one coat, but two ... AWESOME!

I love you all.
THANK YOU!!!!!!

Butternut Squash

I'm 30 WEEKS TODAY!
holy moly!!!!!

Time is sure flying and David and I are seriously seriously excited about meeting our precious daughter.

Livi is the size of a butternut squash and weighing 2 1/2 to 3 pounds! She is about 15 inches long and her brain is developing by leaps and bounds!!! Lately I feel Livi lots and lots throughout the day. She is moving a ton, kicking, punching, stretching, and quite a bit more active then she has been prior to now. Like the true darling she is, I feel her A TON when I'm resting. Either relaxing on the couch or laying down. ;) I always look forward to snuggling up with Hubs at night and listening to him tell her sweet stories of his day, or try and get her to "kick kick kick." My heart is over flowing with love ... what a problem right??

Olivia already loves her big brother. I can tell because all it takes is his little squeals to get her dancing! I simply cannot wait to introduce them to each other!!


I'm still craving unconventional things for my "normal life." Anything sour, apples, and lemonade are high on the list. The biggest differences from this pregnancy with Olivia and my pregnancy with Aaden is back pain, heartburn, and exhaustion. I had no heartburn with Aaden, very little back pain, and the exhaustion seemed to get better with A not worth.

But despite all the differences, I am simply over the moon with love, joy, peace, faithfulness, and blessings.



Nothing by LIVI LOVE here!

Fun Learning!

We spent lots of time this morning learning in and out.
Putting things in buckets and taking them out.

IN OUT IN OUT

But the most fun ... putting things in and
SHAKING THEM ALL ABOUT!

Video Fun!
