Two Steps Forward ...

... one step back. :P

Lost our camera this weekend. HUGE bummer. We've had it a couple years and loved it. Never had any issues with it and it did the trick. Now we have to get a new one stat - before the baby gets here.

Buuuut ... My wonderful husband did get the room all finished & it was ready for me to decorate this morning. These pics are a little premature but Im too excited over all of this progress to not share.

Before:

When we bought the house this room was humongous - David decided to split it into 2 separate rooms so each kid could have their own space.

This is the half of the room before the renovation:

After:

Here is what my husband has finished up so far! **Notice the chair I couldn't say no too. Check it out:

I will post more pics when we finish up and once we have a camera (other than my cell phone).

Baby #3 - 34 weeks, belly shot

wow - this is a happenin' blog ... first a 33.5 week post and now a 34 week post.

There are 42 days until my due date - Id be lying if I said I wasnt freaking out just a bit. Babys kicking like crazy, Brooklyns getting all of her tantrums out now, Kalinas working through all her tween infused attitude, david is killing himself getting the house together and surely in 42 days we'll be stress-free, smooth sailing.

mmmmm hmmmm - riiiiight. ::do you sense the denial?::

With Brooklyn I at least had the room ready, the bag packed and all other anal retentive details covered by now ... this time, nada.

...but, hey, babys the size a honeydew, thats pretty cool, no?

lurrrrve this, want this.

just dont have the drive to seek out all 26 of these wonderful pieces ...

A Gotta-Try Recipe

A friend of mine forwarded me this uhhh-maze-ing recipe. Try it ... seriously. It hit the 'crazy preggo combo' spot with grilled chicken, monterey jack, grilled pineapple, cilantro & jalapeños.

Baby #3 - Maternity Shoot

I was super duper excited when a friend offered to take some maternity shots for me (thanks Janessa!!!! ... who I wish had a website I could link since I try to always link my talented friends ... get on that J! ;-P ) . Not only is she talented but shes smart ... because she recommended that we bring the mustang to the shoot. Again, if you didnt read the Sonic post, my husband is game for anything that involves the mustang.

Heres our first shoot as a family of 5 ... :D

Best (Mustang) In Show

Daddy got his first trophy last weekend at a car show we go to annually. He was voted the #1 Mustang! I dont have any pics of Kalina from the show since she was adamant about finding something else to do :P but we dragged Brooklyn along, who absolutely loved waving to everyone in the parade.
