Nesting

How are March and April gone? Honestly? I am getting a little overwhelmed about my pregnancy coming to an end. Trust me I'm so over being pregnant and totally wish it would end but in reality I am not prepared.....at all:( I feel like I have had all the energy sucked out of me lately and I have so much to do. Lately we have been working in the yard, Auri has been playing outside with her neighbor friends a ton and she absolutely loves them! She feels so cool when she goes outside and they all yell her name and run to greet her:) we have the best neighbors. Auri is growing by leaps and bounds, she is now wearing size 2T and size 7 shoes, where her feet came from I have no idea lol! She just seems so much older than she is and her crazy little personality makes me laugh everyday. She constantly asks for her "papa" brad and I know she misses altamont everyday. She is for sure a country girl at heart. I have been putting a list together of all the things that need to be done before the baby gets here and today Cade randomly washed all the windows for me because he knew I had been stressing about them! He is the best father and husband I could ask for and I honestly don't know what I'd do without him. The best feeling in the world is watching him with Auri, they have the cutest relationship, he Is such a push over with her. So anyway, I am praying to get everything ready during May and be prepared for this little baby, it is definitely crunch time I only have 7 weeks left. so if anyone reads this and wants to come help me get my craft on be my guest! I have to paint a crib and dresser, sew some cute baby boy quilts and a twin quilt for Auri arrange furniture for their room! Also I have shopping to do! It will be fun so you know you want to help me lol:)! Two of the random pictures below are of her nose after she nose dived off our front steps:( her band aide was so sad. The one of her in her panties is her proudly showing off her potty sticker! And the fourth is her engrossed in Dora, she is Dora's biggest fan for sure:)

February

Thought I would hurry and get a post in before February slips away! Some fun things we got to do this month were going to dinner at Chef's Table for valentines, (such amazing food btw) with our friends BJ, Sherrie, AJ and Meghann. Going to the Vow, I loved it but I just Love Rachel McAddams in anything! She is my fav:) We have been able to go swimming at the legacy center a few times and Auri loves it even though it gets a little cold for her. Cade has been playing in a city league basketball team that ended tonight and me and Auri were able to watch him play and I got my exercise chasing her around! Auri started going to nursery and holy crap that has been the most awesome thing for me! I can sit and enjoy the lessons! I love it! I took Auri's binky away last week and she is doing so good without it and I love not having to spend my days looking for them. She is growing up so fast it seems, and I am not liking it too much. She is going to be 2 before I know it! Time flys when you have kids! We got another ultrasound of baby Cooper and he is getting so big as well! I can't believe I'm 5 months along! Hating feeling big and fat though lol! I can't wait to be able run again! I have really been missing it a lot lately to clear my mind! June can't come soon enough! Here's some pics of this month:)

Here's to the New Year

I will just pretend that it hasn't been almost a year since I last posted and just try to be better for this year. I am trying to view my blog more as a journal and really write about things I will always want to remember in the future:)

So exciting things for this year... We are having a baby boy in June! this year seems to be flying by already and I can't believe I only have 4 1/2 months left of being prego. This pregnancy seems to be going so much faster than my first, probably because I have so much to do before he comes and Auri keeps me so preoccupied. I am so excited to have a little boy and see what they are all about! I really am hoping the jump from one to two won't be too crazy and I will be able to adapt quickly:) Things on my mind lately and yes I am a worrier,

I am going to miss my alone time with Auri, she is seriously in the cutest stage right now. She pulls the most hilarious faces and has so much personality i am entertained by her every second of the day! I am worried she will just feel replaced when this baby comes and I just want her to know my love will never change!

We are currently renting Cade's parent's house and it only has 2 bedrooms. I'm wondering where we will squeeze in this new bambino. The second room is currently occupied by Auri and Cade's office and there is zero room for another piece of furniture:(

I just got a calling to be in young women's as a Laurels advisor and I think I will really love this calling as soon as Auri goes to Nursery (next month!)

I am working on going back to blond. I don't know if this pregnancy is making me hate the dark or what, but I am really sick of it so I just got my hair highlighted and my next hair appt I hope to be back to blond:)

I am loving that I'm not feeling nauseous anymore, I hate that part of pregnancy! I am finally feeling a bit more energy too.

I am really excited for what this new year has to bring and I can't wait to meet the new addition! Cami and Erin (my sister-in-laws) are also expecting in June and August, so I think it will be so fun to have little cousins so close:)

Well I know this post has been pretty random but I wanted to at least start writing again so I wouldn't have an excuse to go another year, so here's to a new year and a fresh start to blogging!
