25 WEEKS TOMORROW!

She's getting big people and so am I!!! From head to heels she's measuring 13.5in and about a pound and a half, CRAZY! She's moving so much now too; it's so fun to watch my belly move all over the place. Matt and I just lay on the couch and watch in awe as she makes waves in my belly and punches/kicks at me:) It's always at the same time of day too, around 9pm. Thank goodness she stops when I head to bed because I have been SO tired lately. I think my energy level has gone back down some which worries me because I still have plenty of things I need to get done around the house and not to mention the baby room to finish!! I'm not too worried though, I have a wonderful Hubby that always steps in when I need him to:)


WK24.5 weeks...


Thought I'd share another little project I did last weekend. So a few weeks ago I stumbled upon a huge Goodwill store that is close to one of my favorite antique malls. To my amazement they had an incredible assortment of furniture and home goods, for practically nothing of course. So, I stumbled along this entertainment center that you see here below. Ya it looks like trash probably to most of you but I knew it was the perfect little dimond in the rough:) AND they were only asking $115 for it!!

I had the Crossfire that day so I knew there was no way I could take it home with me. I figured I'd go home and tell Matt about it and then if he was cool with it go pick it up that weekend. So he was up for it and our friends Brittany and Steve came up for the weekend from Houston. Brit and I shopped till we literally dropped that day but managed to drop in to see if this piece was still there. We walked in, found it thank goodness, it had been moved so I was sad for a few seconds thinking it was gone. Then out of no where as were oogling it, the Goodwill God came on the intercom, "attention shoppers, don't forget about our 4th of July sale we have going on this weekend...EVERYTHING in the store is HALF off " Holy cow did she just say what I think she said?! Yes....it was the perfect day to be there and buy the thing, only cost about $60!!! What a steal!! I'm still so excited about it just writing about it to you guys:) So ya, I did a little dance in the store, we bought the thing and then borrowed Trapper's truck the next day and brought that puppy home!! A week later after a lot of back and forth in regards to picking out the perfect color, here's how it turned out!!

Here's the before...


Here's the after!! Oh ya and Bub's in the picture looking quite large these days...he looks like a horse!!

A better view with the whole room...

We love how it turned out, it definitely brightens up the room (thanks Trapper for the extra push I needed to pick a brighter blue!). Only thing is now our TV feels SO small!!! Wonder if they have 50" TV's at the Goodwill too!?! hehehe JK!!! But seriously we need a bigger TV pronto...
