LBD 2.0 Nursery

Here are some pictures of our little lady's nursery.  It really was a DIY, collaborative effort!  The best part: NO PAINT!  Woohoo! Almost everything you see was sewn or crafted by me and my wonderful family!  HUGE HUGE thanks to them!

I made these drapes.  I love how they look in the room.

DIY artwork and button monogram inspired by Pinterest



Check out this girl's wardrobe!

Chair from Jackson's room.  I sewed the pillows.

I made this little elephant mobile



Elephant by Aunt Steph and I decorated the little mason jars

Cute elephant clock from Etsy

Wreath I made Adalyn

Custom bedding sewn by Aunt Mary Ann; it turned out so beautiful!




38 Weeks! One Week left!


Whoa!  One week left!  How crazy is that?

37 Weeks


We are 37 weeks, full-term and in the home stretch!  Less than two weeks to d-day now.  The last few weeks have flown by!  I'm starting to have some swelling in my feet.  That hasn't been fun, but I can still wear my wedding ring!  She has most certainly dropped.  The doctor says she is either breach or she has a big head :)  Either way, it won't matter too much since we have a repeat c-section scheduled. 

The nursery is pretty much complete.  I'm just waiting on our maternity pictures so I can add those to the nursery.  I'll post those soon!

Happy (Early) Birthday, Jackson!

With LBD #2's delivery date scheduled for June 4th, we decided to celebrate with Jackson a few weeks early!  He was so excited about his birthday party and he had a great time!  Both sets of grandparents were there to celebrate, which was very special.  Jackson got to bounce with his buddies, eat pizza and cake.  It was a great time.  I can't believe my first baby is about to be three!  Where does the time go?







I'm "free" (three)!


Happy Birthday buddy!

Time for some cake

Aunt Ashley came to celebrate too!

Me and my little man.  He is getting so big!

36 Weeks

 36 Weeks - Only 3 left!  Wow!

I can't believe we are in the final 3 weeks before our little girl is here.  She has most certainly grown in the last week or two.  I can feel it!  I have less room for breathing and I am in full blown waddle mode.  Unfortunately I have had some swelling, but it hasn't been too bad.  I can still wear my rings most days.  I am also still sleeping pretty well.  I'm crossing my fingers that this continues!  I don't know how I would survive if I was dealing with insomnia like I was last time.  She is going to be here before we know it, so I will take all the sleep and rest I can get!
