Been Busy!

Well, a lot has happened in the last couple weeks. First, we have made some progress on the nursery. Nana graciously offered to paint for us (she's MUCH better at it than us) and she did a GREAT job! Walls are now completely painted. All that is left is the moulding above the wainscoting and I finally picked one out. Soon - the nursery will be complete! Thanks to Nana and Papa for making this happen!

We were also able to enjoy Mardi Gras day. It was a beautiful day! The Burtons invited us to hang out with them at their RV - so there were chairs, food and a bathroom! What more can you ask for to enjoy Mardi Gras! Thanks Burtons! We had a great time - pics have been added to the photo album.

We also had a garage sale this morning along with two other friends. We were able to get rid of so much stuff and between all of us - we made over $1,000! It was much more successful than we expected. Thanks to everyone that helped out with this!

Road trip!

We took a quick road trip to Dallas this past weekend to visit Dave, Jenn and of course our beautiful niece, Mia! Mia was baptized on Sunday, so were able to witness a very important event of her life. We were so excited to be there. Since our last visit, Mia has learned SO much. She knows all of her animals, body parts, etc. She even knew who we were when we got there!! It was the cutest thing. She is so smart and of course precious....to us, she's just perfect! I added some pics to the Photo Album.

We also want to thank Jenn (aka Aunt J) and Dave again for all of the adorable outfits that they gave Madeline while we were there! You would not believe how much shopping Jenn did! Ha ha! Madeline's closet is already filling up quickly!

Having Fun

Since we find out we are having a girl, I have been busy making some fun decisions. We had already ordered the crib, so it was time to pick out the bedding. My friend, Cheryl, told me about this website that she used - www.javisdavis.com - who does custom crib bedding. At first I thought, probably too expensive - but it ended up being very reasonable AND on SALE!! So after about 1 million different designs I played with, I finally decided on one. I put a picture of it in our Photo Album for you to see. I absolutely love it and can't wait until it comes in! If any of you know someone who needs crib bedding, I STRONGLY recommend this website. It's amazing and the people are extremely nice and helpful.

Thanks to my mom and all of my friends who looked through all the 1 million different designs and gave me feedback and helped to make my decision. Y'all are the best!

Tomorrow, my mom and Annie will be joining me to register...another fun event!
