Busy weeks!

Seems like we have been pretty busy lately! We started out a couple of weeks ago cleaning out the nursery to be! If you have been to our house, ever, you should know that Bob's office consist of a huge room that is filled of boxes, liquor, signs, etc. (I just call it junk)... so much so that I didn't even remember what the carpet looked like in there! You couldn't make it to the desk if you wanted to! So we decided to change the "office" into a nursery since it is closer to our room and move all of Bob's stuff into a walk in closet...he wasn't to excited but he did a great job and it is starting to look great!


This pic was actually before the final sweep but it looks a ton better than it did! All of this stuff in this pic is currently gone! Yay!
I also, finally, got my hair colored! I was not loving the awesome skunk stripe I was sporting! The doc said it was fine so I waited at least til the second trimester to do it! Bob loves it! Hoping it will be a little less maintenance than the blonde!


We also had some super sweet house guest for a few days! Our friend from college, Jaime and her adorable two girls and her mom came to stay with us a few nights! It was during the week so I felt like a horrible hostess seeing that I had to work the whole time they were here! The girls, Zoey (3) and Kenzee (1) were so much fun! They loved playing with Gracie and loved reading books and playing the iPad games! And Zoey even helped me with laundry!

Gotta love Kenzee's cute curls!
And Zoey's smile was too cute! She hated having her pic taken!
This was pea pods first gift that are Zoey and Kenzee's favorite two books! They are so cute and I cannot wait to read them to our little one!
I also went shopping with Grandma this past weekend for maternity clothes! Bob said it didn't matter what I tried on, that is how pregnant I looked in them! They were all super cute! She also insisted on being the one to buy the first baby outfit! It took me forever to convince her we had to buy something gender neutral as not to jinx it! It was actually really hard to find!

How could you not love these cute little duck feet!
In my photo journey, I missed week 14 where baby was the size of a lemon. We were so busy that week and I have been having the worst migraines which basically makes me want to do nothing!
So week 15, baby is the size of an orange! :)


Have been doing pretty well, outside of the migraines! Go back to the doctor on Wednesday where I thought I would get to see the pea pod but apparently not so one more month and we should know what color to paint that nursery!

Are we there yet??

I know it has been a minute since I have updated on the status of the pea pod but it has really been an uneventful first trimester... thats right, I said first trimester because today marks the first day of the second trimester and I could not be more excited, gives a little peace of mind that we will be meeting that little one in January! We have been trying to update weekly pics to see how much the baby is growing but there really has not been much change! This is today, the start of week 13...


Baby is the size of a peach and Bob had me pose with a peach we picked up from the farmers market yesterday...this is kind of a small peach but you get the idea! After we took a 3 hour nap after church, I actually had a little energy and cleaned out the fridge and the pantry, cooked dinner and cleaned the kitchen and even did some laundry! Yay! Hoping that last because I have a ton to do around this house in the next couple of weeks!

Then there is week 12, which I did not have an official picture but this was our Facebook post picture and it was at week 12. I posted "What happens in Mexico doesn't always stay in Mexico"... I thought it was super cute idea! Baby was officially the size of a plum at this point!


Week 11, again looking a lot like Week 13 I think! Ha! Baby was the size of a lime and I thought it was only appropriate to draw a margarita since I cannot have one for another 6 months or more! I have heard lime slushes are very similar so I may have to check one out soon! :)


I started the photo journey at week 10 where baby was the size of a prune!


I am hoping the next trimester goes as well as this one! No morning sickness, no over moodiness, no food aversion or cravings for that matter...just hanging out with the pea pod! We go back to the doctor on August 1st to peek at the pea pod to make sure it has all of its arms and legs and stuff and we may be able to sneak a peek to see what it might be! :) Also bought my first pair of maternity pants this week...while the dress pants are still fitting fine, the jeans are a little snug and I felt like the button might pop off so I thought it was about time! Overall doing well, cannot wait to share our next picture of the little one!
