6 month mark!!

I am up way too early for a Sunday morning, but the pups insisted that it was time for a walk and since hubby is at work, I had no choice!  So what else can I do before really starting my day - blog, of course!

The time is flying by that is for sure and there is so much that needs to be done still!  I know it will get done with time to spare, but I am in full blown nesting mode and with the holidays here, I know that time will go by even faster with all the shopping, baking, parties, visitors, etc.

First on my to-do list is deciding on bedding / decor for the nursery....I have been very indecisive and changed my mind quite a few times.  I ordered a few more fabric swatches and hope that one of these two will be the "ONE!"  Isn't it funny how as new moms we stress about these things when our baby won't even notice how her room is decorated?  I know it is part of the fun of preparing for baby's arrival, but as long as she is loved and taken care of, the color of the room doesn't matter much!  We did get a majority of the baby registry done last weekend, so at least my time of researching strollers, car seats, swings, and every other thing that I have no idea what it is used for at this point paid off!

Besides baby stuff, our weekends have been filled with spending time with friends, seeing some movies - NEW MOON finally (I think I might be a Team Jacob fan now after seeing those rock hard abs!) - and having family visit.  Mama and Papa, Aunt Janice and Jim made the trek over from the west coast of FL yesterday for a visit, which was wonderful!  I love seeing and spending time with family, especially during this time of year - it makes me wish we lived closer to everyone, but I feel blessed to have so many special people in my life.

With Mama and Papa - excited for the arrival of their first great-grand baby! :)

Steve and the short people!

Two of my favorite women - Mama and Aunt Janice!

 

Hard to believe next week is Thanksgiving (already!!??), but I am excited to enjoy a wonderful dinner with great friends, put up Christmas decorations, and then head to the Keys for a relaxing weekend with friends from OH!  It will be nice to get away for a few days and see the Keys in a whole new light - sober! :)
