A Life Saver

This was my life saver


I didn't know goo-be-gone would take off crayon and I was even more worried that it would take off the paint on Ashlyn's wall.

So why did I have to use this you ask? Ashlyn got upset with me because I told her that I couldn't play outside so she decided to take orange crayon to her walls, bed, and some of her bedding. It's hard to be almost 3 1/2 and not understand the concept of mom being on bedrest.

34 Weeks Pregnant


Can't believe that we are finally to this point in the pregnancy. Last Friday when I hit 33 weeks (7/20/12)I went into the dr because I was having contractions, some very painful while others were just simply there and continuing to come. After my NST showed timeable contractions I was sent to L&D to get a shot to stop the contractions and then sent home on bedrest.

I went back to the Dr on Wednesday (7/25/12) for my follow-up appointment. I have been having constant headaches since the previous Friday and let the dr know. They did labs for preeclampsia as well as another NST. I was still having timeable contractions so they decided to put me on medication to slow down the contractions and told me to continue bedrest. They are hoping to get me to 36 weeks and then we'll go from there since baby is looking good. Some will depend on what the labs show. The nice thing is that I did at least get permission to go to my baby shower this weekend. Other than that I'm suppose to stay down. Lets hope I can survive bedrest. Was on it for 3 weeks with Kaylee and I went crazy so here's to hoping that I survive :)

Movie Night

So my brothers and hubby have been talking about watching Avengers for awhile now and so on July 14th they went off to the theater to watch it. We were going to have a family movie night but I told Josh just to go ahead and go and I'd have a little movie party with the girls. So why the guys watched this action show


the girls and I ate popcorn and had ice cream while watching this


Here are some pics of the girls after I got their pillows, blankets and popcorn ready:



New Nursery Color

So I've been talking about painting the nursery forever! If you don't believe me ask Josh, he'll tell you it's true. Last Friday I finally did it and am so happy with how it turned out. The only think I wish I would have done was take a before picture to show the difference. It was previously a light green (the closet I color I can think of to describe it was mint or if you have seen the movie Princess and the Frog think of the shade of green in that) but it gave off an awful yellowish tint on people when they would go in the room. After looking at ideas and different colors I decided to just go with one solid color. We chose Sweet Baby Blue. Blue is no longer just a boy color so I decided that Kaylee wouldn't suffer from the color choice, besides blue has always been my favorite color. Eventually she'll move in with Ashlyn but for now the youngest 2 will share a room. So here is the what it looks like. I also but up his crib and bedding and I think they look great. Eventually I'll put some shelves or picture frames up with other colors that can match but for now this is how it looks.
