Nursery On Its Way

So, Spring Break was just the other week and I wanted to get a lot of stuff done during that time. I wanted to have the entire room painted and cleared out. We cleared out the room and there was junk everywhere in our house. We painted the room a really pretty yellow color.





It will look really nice with the white furniture and decorations that will go into it. It is going to take us forever to get everything back in place and go through other stuff. Our theme is nursery rhymes. My grandmother and I are working on making the bedding.I found this really cute fabric. It is pink and white toile that has several different types of nursery rhymes (Jack and Jill, Little Miss Muffet, Hickory Dickory Dock, and Humpty Dumpty, along with others). We are going to add yellow plush, celedon fabric, and lace. We are getting things out of storage now, old trinkets and dolls of mine that I had as a baby. We are going to put them in her room for her to play with.

So Greer is moving more and more everyday. I keep feeling her kick and it makes me jump every time. Most of them are real dainty but there are some where she like karate kicks! Mo>st of my family has felt her kick. For a while, she would kick and when others would try to feel it, she would stop. Again, being shy. Now though, she is so active most people have felt her. This last week I was watching my stomach and I saw her push against me! It was so weird, I have felt her move for a couple of months but never have seen her push. It was the neatest thing so far! Her is the latest belly pic. I can't believe I am now 6 months! The time has gone by so fast!

Little Baby Kicks

Okay, so I am now 21 weeks pregnant! Where did the time go? I can't think about the amount of weeks we have left because then I started freaking out. We have bought several baby clothes. We have so many 0-3 months, we need to start getting 3-6 months. It is so much fun and there are so many cute clothes for girls! I am taking several items up to this store "Snug as a Bug" soon. They will take the colors from the outfits and make these really cute big fluffy bows to match. Jordan is having a lot of fun buying clothes and getting stuff ready too. He is so funny! He is reading all the books and is the first person to tell me what to expect. The first time I had cramps, he says.."It's okay, it's just Braxton Hicks. That's normal right now." We went to Home Depot yesterday to look at some paint samples. I picked out several pink options, more of a rose color. Jordan also picked out a pretty yellow color. I found the fabric option I want online so I have to go to the fabric store to see what it looks like up close. After that, we can choose the color for the walls. I am excited about the bedding. My grandmother and I are making it! I have picked out several fitted sheets and then we are making the dust ruffle, bumper, and curtains. My grandmother has something up her sleeve with the baby quilt.:) She won't let me in on it.

So, the other day I was noticing a different feeling. The butterfly feeling has gotten stronger but then there was something else too. The more it kept on, I figured out what it was. She has started kicking! They are very small and I only feel maybe 3 or 4 a day but it is incredible! That is the big news so far, I am loading a picture of the belly. I have grown so much, I am scared to see what I will look like after all this is over.
