Lacie's Bedding

Here is a picture of Lacie's Bedding. It's so cute I love it.

Blankie oh How I LOVE you!

Jordan is getting so tender hearted. He just melts my heart everyday. Today I had to take him to the dreaded nursery which by the way KILLS me. He is so sad and just gives me that look like how could you leave me. I think about him the entire time I'm in primary. I check on him at least 3 times which the primary leaders probably wonder where on earth I sneak out too every sunday. Today when I had to teach and so I wasn't able to pick him up form nursery until seriously every kid in there was pretty much gone. He had his beloved blanket and a big gigantic frown with tears rolling down his little cheek as he watched all the other parents come in and get their kids. My heart sunk into my big toe as I watched his little sad face stare at each mom coming to get their kid. When he finally saw me his smile was as big as Texas and he just jumped into my arms. I never want to take him back ahhh it just kills me. I am thankful for his blankie. He drags one of 4 around everywhere he goes. I think it really helps him in nursery. Just to show you how much he loves it I took pictures of him eating. He insists on having it around his neck while he eats (What a cute little man!) I just love my little boy!!!

The Finished Product!

I finsihed Lacie's shelve today and it turned out soooo cute. Every time I do a new craft for her room I get more and more excited for the next project. Really the pictures don't even do it justice but I thought I would share anyway. I know my mom will want to see every detail in her room since she lives so far away so bear with all the upcoming posts as we decorate her room.

We decided on a Name!

Well after much talking back and forth we finally came to a decision on our little girls name. Nate really picked it out and it kinda grew on me. I have been busy busy busy coming up with craft projects for me to do while I wait on my nursery furniture. I am so excited about the new name project I did and it turned out sooo cute. I do need to repaint the shelve it was already in the spare room but its too dark for her colors. Here is a sneak peak at her name and latest project and my favorite bow that I have made for her.

I give up!

We are trying to get rid of the bottle and move onto the sippy for good. Jordan just hates change I have decided. He will not take the sippy and doesn't really want the bottle that much either. I finally just packed up the bottles and bought every sippy cup they made to see which one he would go for. So far he doesn't like one really! So what have we done well its day 2 and we are back to the crying himself to sleep thing. I feel so bad and I really thought that I had been tortured enough with the first crying himself to sleep episode. I give up on this sleeping thing really it just sucks with Lacie I am starting everything way earlier.

Flower and Ribbon Bows

So my friend Brittany makes these really cute bows for her girls and she inspired me to make some for our little girl. I thought it would give me something to do and now I think I'm addicted. I went to Roberts and bought some ribbon and a flower and got to work. These are the finished product and I think they turned out really cute. I might just need to work on the size a little because they seem really big but I am super excited now I have something I can do while I wait for the nursery furniture. YaY! The best part is I get to basically make them to match any outfit I have which is really fun.

Any Ideas?

I need ideas for girl names. Nate and I can't agree on anything so I decided I am up for suggestions. So if you have any ideas let me know.

GUESS WHAT??

We had the ultrasound today and the baby is






Keep Going...
















A little further...




















Almost there....











A GIRL!!!!!
We couldn't be more happy with the results. The baby is doing great and looks really healthy. She is measuring 6 days ahead of her due date and if she is anything like her brother she will be a big kid haha. I can't wait to buy cute bows and blankets because heaven knows I don't need clothes thanks to my sister and my friend Jen:) I was going to put her pictures on here but she really looks like an alien so I guess you will have to wait until she arrives:)

Baby Signing Time

I don't know if any of you have heard of baby signing time but my cousin Stacie introduced it to me and Jordan LOVES it. He seriously is not a t.v. watcher and sometimes I need a break so I put in baby signing time and he just lays on the couch and watches it. He is learning so many things now and can sign a ton. I love interacting with him and having him pop out random words I never knew he even could say. If you don't have one you need to invest in these movies. There are only 4 but well worth the money. You can't buy them at Wal-mart but if you go to amazon.com or babysigningtime.com. You can even watch previews and see how fun they are. Anyway just thought I would share my new found love.

Coupons!

I know people have been blogging a lot about coupons but I have to share. I recently was taught by my friend Mary how to use the coupons and I LOVE it! I have only really done it twice now but let me tell you I can see the savings especially tonight. I spent a grand total of 54.00 and some change and saved are you ready 160.00 and some change. Can you believe that. This is a picture of everything I got. I am so motivated now and I hope this really keeps on working:)
