Lately….

Well I have to start by saying that I am so sad for all destruction that these recent storms have caused here and all over the South. I have a co-worker that her home was determined to be a complete loss but her and her husband are both safe. I just pray for them and for all the people that have lost their homes and family members during all this.

Okay onto my post:

Yea so I’m terrible at blogging. I want to be better but I’m just not. I want to be one of those people that update everyday. I just don’t have that much to write about. I mean Jayci is always doing something funny or saying something that I could right about. However, it seems like every time I go to blog about it I forget what it was.

So here are some up to date things going on with us right now:

Last Friday my friend, Lindsey and I took our daughter’s, Jayci and Laiken to see Disney’s on Ice: Princess Wishes. It was so much fun. I’m not sure who enjoyed it more, me or her. We had the best time. We took the girls to Olive Garden for dinner and let them drink out of “fancy” glasses. They thought they were so big!

Jayci had to go as Ariel, of course. Ariel is her favorite because they both have red hair. She has always been her favorite.  Laiken said she was, “a princess.” It didn’t really matter which one just a princess….My kind of girl!

 

The next day we went to my granddad's house for some Easter egg hunting and just some good family time.

Since I am now working weekends I slept all day on Easter Sunday. I was quite sad to miss everything but this 36 week pregnant girl needs her sleep! So Jay and Jayci went to church and then to an Easter egg hunt at some friends house.

This is my sweet, sassy girl Easter morning. I loved her dress so much. I actually found it at a consignment sale, Rhea Lana’s.

 

Here is a video from today. Jayci loves music and loves to sing! She is going to be like her daddy. Hopefully, she will get his ability to carry a tune and not take after my tone deaf self.

Okay I think that is pretty much all the updated stuff on Jayci recently. 

As far as Korbyn goes he is just hanging out still. Which I guess is good. I will be 37 weeks on Saturday so anytime after that we are good to go. However, to be completely honest I would be okay with him coming NOW! I am the most impatient person ever. I am making some progress so that is good. So who knows could be next week or 3 weeks from now still.

Room Tour

Presenting Korbyn’s room! Here is a little tour of his nursery. I am so in LOVE with it. I love all the colors. It is something I think will grow with him for a while. Or at least I’m going to make sure it does somehow. Anyway, here we go!

This is what you see as you walk from the hallway to inside his room. That chair is a rocker/recliner and super comfy! I can see falling asleep there A LOT.

This is just walking in a little bit more. I plan on putting some of his newborn pictures up on the wall to the right. Just have to get some frames that I like!

The next few are just going around the room to the left.

 

The Giraffes that my aunt made out of plywood. Aren’t they FABULOUS! She is so creative and I am so thankful she was able to help us create our little boys room.

 

This is just the shelf that is on the opposite wall. The book all the way to the right is his baby book. I was so excited to find a book that matched his room perfectly!

The next few are just some close ups of different things.

  

This is the view from the rocking chair. So peaceful.

The big giraffe with the sun. I know there is a run in the sun. Jay has to climb up and fix it. We shall see if that ever gets done. HA.

The baby giraffe

The comforter that goes with the bedding. You can see in the next picture that the giraffes match the bedding almost exactly!

 

And just for fun. A “lovey” made out of Razorback colors. It even has little tags on it that says “I ‘heart’ football.” I ordered this and a burp cloth from the Little b Designs shop on ETSY.

Anyway, there is the completed nursery. Hope you enjoyed your tour! Have a great week.

Shower Fun

Yesterday was one last shower hosted by some of our wonderful friends from church. We feel so blessed that so many people have supplied new baby things for Korbyn. I can’t say how incredibly helpful and how much we are appreciative of it all.

Anyway, we had a Dr. Seuss theme shower and it was so cute. I love Dr. Seuss and he is a big hit in our house with Jayci already. She loves all of his books. 

All the wonderful decorations and yummy cupcakes!

Friends   

The diaper bag that I registered for. I love it!

Baby girl K. She is so precious!

 

One of my favorite cards. A little girl that is a couple of years older than Jayci drew it for me. I just adore it!

 

Big Sister Jayci

 

Monogrammed burp clothes. I love these things!

 

Coordinating outfits! I love them. Of course I did get to pick the fabric but still to have a friend that is this talented definitely has it’s benefits. The little outfit for Korbyn will be his bring home outfit! And then we can have pictures made!!!

 

Me and the wonderful hostess’s (Angie, Angie, and Kasie)

We had such a good time and Korbyn got lots of good things. Now I just have to organize all this stuff.

One funny story….Yesterday, I asked Jayci if she was going to go to the shower with me. She said yes and I walked away to the bathroom. Well, like 2 seconds later she came in there saying, “my daddy said I already had a bath but I will take a shower too.” LOL I was so confused but she thought I was talking about her taking an actual shower.

Hope you all have a good week!
