Craft Night!

My sisters and I had a craft night last night and me and Missy made this adorable board to hang bows on!

Since Linsey is having a boy she made something else while we did this! It was totally easy to make and will be awesome to be able to organize all her bows and not loose all them! Thanks mis for having us over, it was fun! Next.... bottle cap bows!

Confession...

I may have just purchased 30 of these.....

But got an AMAZING price!! I couldnt resist! I figure my little girl is probably gonna be in a headband/Bow every day so I definitely need all these colors, right?? :) I have found tons of bows to make that clip onto headbands so these will work perfect! I have no buyers remorse on this purchase what-so-ever! Who can pass this up for $12!! Not me... obviously!! One more purchase made for the little munchkin!

Pathetic!!

I seriously think I have consumed more of these items being pregnant then I probably have in my entire lifetime, its pathetic!!







I'm seriously starting to gross myself out, really. I have never been this way... now all the sudden im pregnant and so I feel the need to eat pure crap!? How does that work?? I'm hoping this is all part of the pregnancy phase and will stop the day I give birth or we are going to have a problem. I honestly dont know how I havent gained like 20 lbs already! Is it possible for your child to be born addicted to sugar/caffiene? If so... my child is doomed. Perhaps I should try cutting back. Hm...! I just have a horrible sweet tooth these days... but I really should try to stop. When I realize at the night what I've consumed throughout the day and it makes me sick just thinking about it, I think thats a bad sign. Sorry for the randomness... but I'm just realizing how pathetic it's becoming....

Valentine's Weekend!

For Valentine's this year we kinda spoiled ourselves and headed downtown for some fun! Jacob planned it all and I was very impressed! It all turned out perfect! We started out by doing some baby shopping and found some awesome deals, which always makes it that much better! We found some adorable clothes, cute green baskets for my changing table and picked up our mattress for the crib I had ordered online!

Next... we raced downtown to go see "When In Rome". We got down there in plenty of time but the stupid parking garages at the Gateway were a disaster! There were like 50 people all looking for a parking spot at the same time. So after we drove around for like 30 minutes we finally got lucky and found a spot, making us only 30 min late for our movie!! WHAT A JOKE! The movie was pretty cute, but I can't say I would see it again.

We then headed to Little America to check into our hotel and get ready for dinner. Its such a fun little hotel and is nice to just get away, even if it is just downtown!

We've stayed here a couple times and have really nice rooms but I apparantly when I booked it this time I did something different cuz our room was kinda small. It was still really nice.. but not what we have had in the past. Oh well!

All dressed up for dinner!

My cute hubby in his duds!

Gotta love self timer.. except when the stupid flash reflects off everthing! We decided to somewhat dress up for dinner this year, it was fun! We had to park so far away because of the masses of people downtown so I sent Jacob for the car while I waited in the room. I thought he was gonna honk when he got there but then there was a knock on the door and I opened it to these gorgeous things!

I was so totally surprised!! He had gotten them clear back before we left for the day and had kept them in the trunk in a stand so that I wouldnt see them! I kinda just thought I wasnt getting any since it was like 7 and I hadnt seen any, but I was so wrong!! He knows I hate just plain roses so he always gets the pretties arrangements! He is such a sweetheart, he knows I love surprises and flowers!

Then we were off to dinner at PF Changs, one of my favorites! The food was soo good... I ate way too much! We got like a 5 course meal and I was so stuffed! Thank heavens we had a reservation because otherwise the wait was 2 hours!! Yikes! We finished out the night with some nice back massages! I found this massage oil at Bath and Body works that smells divine and feels amazing!

We got like a Vanilla cherry flavor or something and it was amazing! We had to improvise seeing as to how I can't lay on stomache but it still felt amazing. Jacob even searched online beforehand to get some tips... haha... it is just the best! We finished off our weekend with a nice sleep in and then unlimited pancakes at IHOP this morning! It was such a nice little getaway for sure! Once again... I have the best husband, hands down! :) Love you honey, thanks for the fun weekend away!

One more Reason....

... I ADORE my husband....

My sweet husband surprised me at work yesterday with this cute little goodie bag! He knows I totally crave sweets being pregnant so he showed up to work with this cute little surprise!! And of course, enclosed was my favorite treat of all (hence the size, and yes I will eat this whole bag until my tongue hurts from the sour!)

He's is just such an amazing husband... I dont even know what I would do without him! He is always going out of his way to do cute things for me and always trying to make me feel special! I think I get used to it sometimes and tend to overlook some of the things he does for me, many of the things he does for me... but I really do appreciate him more then I could ever put into words! So this post is dedicated to my amazing husband, I LOVE you babe! I dont know any husband who wouldnt be mad if their wife woke them up in the middle of the night just to go get her chapstick, that would run to any fast food restaurant in the state at midnight because she was craving onion rings, that would give up the Lovesac EVERY night just so your wife can fall asleep without her back hurting, that would rub lotion on her feet after I get out of the shower at night because she forgot too and she's already cozy in the blankets (and you were too before you got up!), that would bring her food every single day at work because she cant seem to remember to grab something, or enough, before she leaves the house, that would give up going to Antimony some weekends because you dont want to leave her home alone and that would do just about anything and everything to show her how much you love and adore her! Your the best babe...! Your going to be an amazing daddy! I am so lucky to have you as my husband and the father of our children. You make alot of sacrifices for our family and it just wouldnt be the same without you! Thanks for all you do! Happy Valentines Day! I love you!!

XOXOXOXO

5 Months!!

I'm slacking on my blog, one of my new years resolutions down the drain already!! I was thinking because I was prego I would have a little more to blog about but it hasn't really turned out that way! We've done a couple fun things over the past few weeks....

Jacob and I did a date night a couple week ago that was very much needed. We went to Sweet Tomatoes, one of our favorite restaurants, and then headed off to Color Me Mine to show off our skills! haha I decided to make some coasters....

... and Jacob a treasure chest piggy bank! (Don't ask! lol) We both found out just how un-artistic we really are. We were seriously there for like 5 hours. It was way fun but I think next time I will do like a plate or something that is a little less detail oriented. It took Jacob like 2 hours to just tape off his masterpiece. I would totally recommend it, its a fun date night... maybe just start off with something not quite as intricate. haha

I got a sewing machine for my birthday last year and haven't used it much since I haven't really had anything to make. (Until now with the baby of course) So while I was at work today Jacob decided to thread it up and get it ready to use. He then proceeded to find some spare fabric in the cupboard and whip up this little item for a surprise when I got home! He calls it my snack sack! :)

He is always cracking jokes because I'm hungry like every hour so he thought it might be nice to have something to carry my snacks in. haha He was totally kidding but I was cracking up that he even took the time to do it! So cute :)

I'm also finally 5 months along... happy 5 month pre-birthday to my baby GIRL!! We found out about 2 weeks ago that we are having a GIRL and couldn't be more excited. I was kinda convinced it was a boy because everyone is having a boy but guess we are different! It's so nice to be able to call her a "her" instead of an "it" and to start making all my fun crafts and get bedding and all that fun jazz! Here is my belly at 5 Months.. its starting to poke out more and more for sure and I'm loving it! Hopefully I will be able to start feeling her moving and kicking soon!

I wish I would take more pictures, I've been totally slacking because our camera is HORRIBLE! I cannot wait to get our new camera when the baby comes... hopefully I'll take more pictures that way!

Life is good! I've been working like crazy and Jacob is busy with school. We are headed to the Little America this weekend for Valentines so hopefully there will be pics of that to come!!
