Progress!

Yesterday I went into Seth's room hoping to make a little progress and this is what I ended up with...

I guess I was on a roll : ) I just need to go through that pile of decorations and decide what's going to go where and then we can start putting together Seth's furniture! I'm so excited! 

What did you do this weekend? Anything productive or fun? 

Put together!

Here's some update pictures of our apartment, a little more put together than the last time!

It hasn't been a breeze moving in. There has been one headache or another with many different aspects, but I have a pretty awesome husband by my side and a sweet little baby who knows just when to kick me and make me smile <3 We obviously still have odds and ends to put out, decorations and such. I had planned on taking a little break now that I have the essentials done, but as you can see, Seth's room is a hot mess and i'm not sure I can stand waiting to get his stuff put together much longer! : ) Our schedule is pretty crazy between now and the end of the month and we are headed to NY a week from Saturday! But, I know the mess will only get worse when we come home with all that we bring back with us so I hope to get some of it accomplished before hand! 

Our weekend

What a wonderful weekend we had. I don't really know what it was about it, but I felt pretty accomplished and happy each day! I was off on Friday for Seth's appointment which went well. His heart rate was in the 160's and he was kicking at the doctor : ) I have my glucose test in two weeks and then my next appointment 2 weeks after that. After that I think we will be going to having appointments every 2 weeks instead of once a month. I just can't believe how quickly this is going!!!

6 months down, 3 to go! 

After my appointment I scored the jackpot. I follow mom swap and garage sale pages on facebook. This one woman posted that she had a bunch of boy clothes newborn-12 months for $30 so I snatched them. When I arrived to get them this is what she had for me! 

What a blessing!!! I also got a blue bumbo seat for $5! Those things go for like $40! I'm trying not to get too much since I know we have showers coming, but these deals are hard to pass on sometimes. I've told myself to stop for now though....

We got our washer and dryer delivered on Saturday! 

I think it officially makes me old that this was like Christmas to me. I can't wait for them to get hooked up today so I can start doing laundry - IN MY HOME!

Other than that we had a pretty relaxing weekend. I got us a little more settled in; Jeremy got our cable hooked up; I ordered a few 'upgrade' items for us with some gift cards i'd been saving; we paid off my car (another old feeling moment that this excited me so much lol) I had some Jamberry parties; and we just laid around and felt Seth kicking away - my favorite thing to do! 

I hope you all had wonderful weekends with loved ones! 

This has no title...

I was supposed to post this yesterday but I completely forgot. This is kind of a silly blog post but it's also too long for facebook so, just go with it : ) 

A couple nights ago we were laying in bed watching 'Friends'. For my fellow 'Friends' addicts you will probably recognize this episode right away. One of the main characters, Monica, is sent home from work because she is sick but she refuses to believe that she actually is. She continually says, "I'm fine!" "I'm fine!" But since she is all congested it sound more like "I'm find!" "I'm find!" So I asked Jeremy why they were making it sound like when you have a cold you put D's on the end of things. Then I proceeded to plug my nose and try to say fine and then Jeremy did the same. I died laughing and could not stop. Then Jeremy leaned over and asked Seth if he was ready to come out and join our crazy family : ) 

I love us! 

Our new home!

I can't believe this is our third home since we have been married! I also can't believe this August will be our third year Anniversary! I also can't believe we will have a baby then! Time sure flies when you're having fun! We realized while moving that each time our parents come to see us we are in a new place LOL Hopefully that changes soon : ) 

So here it is! I should have taken pictures of it empty, but I didn't so...don't mind the mess. It already looks better than this and I will update once I get it a little more homey! 

Our front door and living room...

...directly behind me in the picture above is the kitchen...it seems a bit smaller but I actually have a little more cupboard space than I did...

...the room to the left of the living room is Seth's room...

...Side note - I LOVE calling it that : ) ...

...his huge closet that he will have to share with some storage...

...he even gets his own bathroom...

...to the right of the living room is a small hallway with a linen closet and washer/dryer hookups...

...to the right is our bedroom...

...our walk-in...

...and to the left is our bathroom...

I don't know what I would do without him! 

Being pregnant definitely made this move interesting. I am SO thankful that we had 4 dear friends come give us a hand in the process, so loading and un-loading only took about 2 and a half hours. Last night we put the furniture back together, got the bathroom unpacked and started the kitchen and bedroom. I wanted Jeremy to get our kitchen table put together, but then he asked me where the baggie of screws and such were that he needed...UHM?!?!? I remember putting them all in a baggie, I remember picking up the baggie, but where did I put the baggie??? I was SO mad at myself for not being able to remember. We tore open every box as I looked for some glimmer of a reminder. At least 20 minutes later Jeremy opened the drawer to our kitchen cabinet, pulled out the baggie and just starred at me. I died laughing. Yes! "I remember putting them in there because I thought it would be a great place for them to not get lost!" LOL The next three months may test his patience for my brain, but I sure do love him and all he is doing for Seth and I! 

Things to do!

Our move date is fast approaching (as in only 4 days left) and then I feel like I can be in full baby prep mode! Besides getting to set up the nursery there are some home projects that I have been putting off that I really want to finish before our little man arrives! 

We desperately need some end tables and I love these DIY trash cans!

Our kitchen is going to be a bit smaller so I want to make something like this to save some cupboard space!

I have been wanting something like this and I love this idea! I have had an empty wall in my kitchen that would be perfect!

I have so many pictures that I would love to have out but who wants to hang that many picture frames and then have the picture be horizontal when you need it to be vertical?! I love this solution!

Again with saving space, I don't think we will be able to have our ironing board out all the time anymore. What a simple solution!

I have had this on my to-do list forEVER! I even have the bottles and the spot to put them already. I just need to do it!
