Busy Summer!

It has been a long time since I updated the blog,! I don't know where time goes in the summer, but it sure goes fast! So, Joe and I are spending our summer doing a lot of work preparing for the baby. Okay, it has mostly been Joe doing the manual labor, but I have been very supportive! First and foremost was our pool. The liner had several rips and had to be replaced. Needless to say, that is not a job Joe can do, so after weeks of waiting on our "pool guy" to finish, we finally have a pool to relax in. It has been a life saver to me, as the heat combined with my ever growing belly have created some very uncomfortable days! Luckily, baby Nugget loves the pool too. She kicks all the time when I am floating. Here are some pics of the pool before and after the new liner.

We have also started prepping Little Miss Nugget's room. It is a hot mess right now, but it will be fit for a princess soon enough! Her crib and mattress are in the spare bedroom, waiting to be assembled, but the ceiling is scraped, the old carpet is out, and we are ready to start on the fun redecorating now.

The floor is purchased, we are just waiting to paint first. I know it was already purple, which is girlie, but I had to go with the color Pottery Barn used with the bedding, so it will soon be changed.


Baby girl's closet. I don't know how we will ever fit all the clothes we have been given into this closet! See below to find out what happens when you are the only one around having a girl. The gifts keep coming!

These are the clothes given to me by the family I babysit for (who are getting ready for a baby boy), and a friend of their's! This does not include the tub of clothes I already had from gifts from my sisters, mom, and mother in law! She is going to be one fashionable little Nugget!

Our little lady is growing at an incredible rate, and you can really tell by looking at her momma! She is up to twelve inches, and somewhere around 2 pounds right now. Here I am at 25 and a half weeks. I am definately getting bigger by the day, but I LOVE my baby bump! (We'll see how I feel about it in another couple of months!)
