So after this weekend I've realized.. I'm getting ready for BABY! This to me was the fun part last time too now that I look back. I had project after project planned for hubs..Ok mostly me. Any jobs he needs to do I have to give him a deadline because he'll put it off forever. If you follow me on Pinterest you probs are getting the idea that I'm in organizing/redecorating mode!
I want to do all the things! My biggest hold up right now though to getting any redecorating done really is the darn GRAY paint! I can't find a shade I like. I actually did really love the shade my friend has in her house but finding out the name from her has been impossible!
Since we aren't needing to make another nursery I'm focusing all my decorating on the rest of the house haha. Mostly the living room/dining room and kitchen. We bought our home almost 8 years ago (this summer) so I'm over the look that we originally went with. Out with the peanut butter and green walls.. It's time to freshen up everything!
Here are some I can't wait to do though.. Now all I need is to get my hands on some spray paint and my butt to Ikea!
And some arts and crafts that will look cute!
If you know me, you know I love Chevron. I want to make these so bad!
Eventually, like probs this Winter, we'll move Kenz into a toddler bed. She still could use the crib sides up since she rolls/flips so much. Plus baby Kylie will sleep in her rock n play in our room until Christmas most likely.
I can't wait to make that bed though! Or I can.. I'll keep my now baby a baby in her crib as long as I can! :(
Kenz had a little cold, and 2 molars still trying to break through. And the birthday boy came down with the flu (on his bday).. I felt so bad for him... (eventually) Haha. See I think my man if not all men, are just wimps when it comes to being sick.. This one. He will tell you over and over how "he's dying" and wants you to baby him. So I sorta took on another kid for a week. Once we got back Monday night (he barely made it home driving). I could see him fading. If only I could drive the truck with towing the boat.He was really sick (stayed home sick) until Thursday. That's when I finally believed he really was miserable..Luckily me and the baby dodged it.
Waiting for dad to get home from fishing early that morning.
We had so much fun playing with the ducks that live below the deck and I think my favorite part was just a little game of Monkey in the middle we played in the long driveway. It was fun to watch Kenz running back and forth.. Also I got to put my old softball skills to use. Soon after you bet we all took a nap!
Also a couple weeks ago my dad had his other knee replaced. Babygirl and I have been going over there to bring him or make him lunch everyday. We've been getting spoiled with some lunches out.
We finally tried out the new burger place, The Habit. Delish!
Oh and also this happened.
I know everyone has their thoughts and opinions on car seat facing..We went to almost 2 years. And we decided it was ok to turn her around now. Miss long legs. I know they say it's comfortable and they're fine but we just made the decision to do it.
She is loving it btw.
Then the weekend came and it was a blast! Saturday was just a lay low let's try not to spend any money, family day. It was gorgeous out. We decided since it was almost low tide, lets pick up some sandwiches and head out with the dogs and go to the beach.
By the time we got our sandwiches and gas and everything the tide was already rising so we weren't gonna have much time with a beach. We still got like an hour and a half out of it and then trolled around for a little bit so Bob could fish.
...until someone I think got sea sick. Her first time. All over me. She was sitting on my lap, facing me and just puked everywhere. Over and over. Poor thing. That quickly ended our trip as I was about to be next.
This beach day made me realize this Summer being prego and all can still be a blast! I'm excited! Many beach days ahead!
And I can't wait to start it all off with our big group challenge we're starting next week. Perfect timing to be done before Memorial day weekend! We've got some big money for the top transformation! Obvi I can't do the complete challenge with everyone, but.. I have a confession.. My appetite has kicked in and well I need to get back into eating better (for 2) and also working out again. So I'll be downing my fiber drink and other approved supplements with you all while you all get to try the new and improved cleanse! PS. There's still time to order so get on it!
Yesterday we had a fun little playdate. I tell ya Kenzie and I have made some really good friends out of this little Mom's Group. These two sure are cute together. They were setting up their snacks to share. AKA dump the pirate's booty on the table.
Now as I am finally getting my hair done this Friday, (Hallelujah!!!) I'm having fun looking for what I should do. The ombre was fun.. and easy. So low maintenance (I haven't had to touch my hair since last summer!).. I'm over it. I miss all the blonde.
or this..
Super blonde. I'm always afraid that the white blonde will wash me out.. Hmm. Decisions decisions.
P.S.S. Anyone else follow this #bish on Insta? I want to be her. ;) Kidding. But I'd love to have her hair, and her tight little toned tummy. She's really motivating though and shares fun workout videos to try.
Which pic/look should I go with for my hair? #helpasistaout
Finally getting a chance to recap Easter. As Kenzie is almost 2, the Holidays are becoming even more fun as we celebrate each one!
The week of Easter our Mom's Group had a little potluck and Easter egg hunt. It turned out pretty great! I planned it and was really surprised by the outcome. The kids had so much fun!
one of our mom's has bunnies and brought them for the kids to check out!
And one of our moms seriously won the "MOST CREATIVE MOMMY AWARD". Are these not the cutest?!
Easter Sunday we took our time, shoot I didn't even know where her basket was.. So I found the closest thing that can resemble her basket and while Daddy took Kenz in the other room I threw everything together and "hid" her basket.
She lit up when she found it!
In her basket this year was:
a blow up pool so I don't have to get in with her every time she wants to cool off.
2 rompers from Target
Princess pink Goldfish crackers (that were half eaten 'cuz Bob just opened them right up the night before)
Tons and tons of clippie bows. We like the little clips over headbands.
Her first pack of peeps (and only candy)- just cuz it's Easter. How can you not receive Peeps in your basket?!Buuuutt...We all don't like them so probably no Peeps next year.
Sidewalk Chalk eggs
Then I gave her the little eggs the "Easter Bunny" left for her the night before on our doorstep.. aka my Brother in law's girlfriend dropped off little treats. She immediately started to try to eat them. #momfail We didn't dye eggs this year.
Our only plans for the day were to go to my parent's house for Brunch.
P.s. I've come to a conclusion.. We are not a brunch type of family! We wake up way too early to wait and eat hours later. It was still great and of course we still ate after already having pancakes at home. ;)
Her basket at Grandma and Grandpas! Sister got hooked up!
Without the bubbles.. *meltdown*
Ok give her back the bubbles
All in all a great little day. We went home and I crashed with the little while Bob went fishing. Next year?! 2 Babes to celebrate with!
