Nesting is for Birds

Nesting... why do some people say that towards the end on pregnancy you go through a "nesting phase". What exactly is nesting? It seems like through out this whole pregnancy there would be days were I was so tired I didn't think that I could function, and the next day I would have a huge burst of energy and clean the whole house. I thought for sure that the last project I took on would be my last before Sadie, but it looks like she is testing my patients already and isn't quite ready to join our family. How many times do I have to go through a "nesting phase" before she gets here?!? We want to spend time with her and get to know her already.

My latest BURST of energy, about a month ago, I tackled a HUGE painting project. Jake and I decided to paint every wall downstairs. We painted 2 accent walls and darkened all of the remaining walls. I only have pictures of one of the accent walls and will have to add the other pictures when I take them. I LOVE how everything turned out, I feel like my house is now a home.

Next on my agenda (hopefully after Sadie is born) New pillows and Window coverings! I am so ready for this change in accessories at home!

Sadie's room

Many of you have been begging for months for pictures of Sadie's room, I have to admit I have really been dragging my feet on getting her room ready. Why, I do not know, I guess that I have just been lazy. We now have it at least put together, but still have some more decorating and things to get done.

The mattress is still down low, because my friends little girl I watch would fall out if we lifted it up so for now, until Sadie sleeps in her own room it will be this way.

We voted against painting her room for now, the ceilings are way to tall, and I just don't want another task to add to my list =0) Maybe sometime after she is born we might attack the painting job.

Utah Baby Shower!

A couple of weeks ago my friend Heather, and my mom threw me a baby shower here in Utah. We had a great time! For some unknown reason the air conditioning was not working. We all were hot and sweaty and smelled great I am sure =0) it was fabulous to see everyone and hang out. Thank you so much for everyone that came and supported us we love you all tons!

Here is the picture of my mom's side of the family, Grandma, Aunts, Cousins, and Cousins kids and my Mom and Sisters! Somehow we didn't get any pictures of everyone else...ooppps, but Jake's mom came, family from my dad's side, and my awesome co-workers!

Opening Gifts!

Hanging out eating great food and great fun!

A huge thank you to everyone that came!

Stay tune.... We have been working on getting Sadie's room and things put together and I will post some pictures soon of our work!
