.: You Can Tell I Had A Baby :.

Yep, I had a baby and some things in life have well... been put on the back burner.

Since last post: (In no particular order)
1. Jake had surgery
2. I had a beautiful, healthy baby boy!
3. Maximus passed away :*(
4. Jake blessed his son Cam
5. We bought a house! (Moving this week)
6. I went back to work

Well that sums up why the gap in posts.
Hope to catch up soon!

.:Such a Grrrr..8 Day!:.

Kennedi

Tayler

 June 1, 2013 was such a special day!

We had two nieces baptized on the same day.

Kennedi is only 4 days older than Tayler.

I can't believe they are already 8 years old!

It makes me feel old!

LOL

My bestie Leslie, helped me make these cute subway arts
that I got printed for each of the girls.
Thanks Les-Loo!

Congrats to both of our beautiful nieces!

.:SpOiLeD:.

Cam and I were so SPOILED by my co-workers!

On Friday, 24Mar2013 I was thrown a shower at work.

Cafe Zupas, cake, and gifts for our little man Cam.

2 outfits, Bumbo, towels/wash cloths, and GC for highchair or playpen.

Thank you so much!

Gotta love the Nuts About Berries!!!

Cam is Coming!

The next day, Saturday 25Mar2013, I was treated to a 

Girls Day/Baby Shower by the girls at work. :) 

Ends up the day before was technically from the boys at work.

We went to Tammy's Nail and Spa in Layton for pedicures and 

then went to lunch at Olive Garden in Layton. 

It was so nice and relaxing!

The girls: Me, Jessica, Heather, Aubree, and Stacie.

My toes :) I'm sure the Dr will be impressed when I delivery Cam :P

Also, Cam's amazing dad set up his crib and
dresser/changing table for me this weekend.
In love with the bed skirt.
Can NOT wait to see the bumpers :)

Oh little man Cam, you are already so loved.

.: Making Progress:.

We've made some progress...

Jake's surgery scheduled for June 4th.

Cam's nursery has been worked on (some what)...

Nursery 5/16/2013

35 Weeks

Cam's due date: June 17th

.:Silly Mommy:.

Was thrown an AWESOME shower by my friends Leslie and Teryn this Saturday.
Decided to have a  mini-photo booth area and all the guests had to take their picture with a mustache (for our Little Man) :)

At the end, mommy had a mini photo shoot (you will see purpose in next post or two...)

Here are some of the best/worst.
Cam will probably be embarrassed. I think Jake was :)

Today (5/7/2013) Jake and I went to our 34 week appointment.
Only 6 more weeks! CRAZY!

Cam measured at 5lb8oz and estimated delivery date (via machine) was 13Jun.
His legs are measuring early (aka long) :)
Karen, my doc, joked... "well what do you expect his parents aren't exactly midgets."
I love her, she is awesome! T
here was the usual talk about car parts between her and Jake,
so of course Jake enjoys her as well!

Go back again in two weeks, then switch to weekly appointments!

Have got to get Cam's nursery done and Jake's surgery done! Ahhh!!

.:Nursery:.

The before...

YIKES!

LOL

Better get started on the after :)

(Have almost everything, just need to piece it together)

33 weeks this week!

.:Let The Countdown Begin:.

30 Weeks !

.:Little Obsessed:.

 As you will soon discover, I am a little obsessed...

I would say I am definitely nesting.

I think about Little Man Burton's nursery

ALL DAY LONG!

It is perfect in my head, let me tell you!

It all started when I looked over at a blanket I had bought at TJMaxx for my front room. A fuzzy, soft, white and olive green chevron throw.

Instantly I decided navy blue, olive green, and white (w/ chocolate brown wood) would be the color scheme. Then we (yes, Jake's only real input on the room) decided not to have a real "theme" I guess. 

No set plan (a.k.a. owls, jungle animals, sports, cars, puppies etc).

I fell in love with chevron, like a lot of people lately, and have ended up having the main "theme" for the room be the main colors (navy blue, oliv-ish greens, and white) and have added accents of orange and gray. 

Also stuck with the chevron and other geometric patterns.

(you will see below... might be giving the Little Man some sensory overload).

Then I found a cute framed silhouette idea on Pinterest...

once again can use chevron scrapbook paper.

Showed Jake and he told me no animals (ie, cute giraffes and elephants).

SO... we kind of went with what "Jake the Little Man's Old Man" does best...

play and tinker in the garage theme... i guess :)

Framed silhouettes of multiple things are somehow going to be incorporated.

(Snowmobile, screw drivers, cars, hiking, mountain biking, soccer, hunting....

the list goes on and on and on).

Below are some pics of the bedding!

My awesome friends Meagan, Nicole, and Sheila helped me pick out/coordinate all of the fabric for the crib bumpers... in which Meagan is also sewing for me!

So excited!

She has her work cute out for her though!

CANNOT WAIT TO POST A FINISHED PRODUCT PICTURE!

I bought the crib sheet, crib skirt, and changing pad cover.

And, of course, that olive green chevron blanket is now officially Little Man's!

Crib Sheet: Gray Chevron

Changing Table Pad: Navy Chevron

Crib Skirt: Navy Chevron

Fabrics in bumper

More fabrics also in bumper

Full shot of fabrics. Note: Green Chevron included, of course.

Jake bought me a chocolate brown dresser/changing table and I have acquired an old tool box which I plan to paint orange. One of my book cases will also be painted olive green and I have fabric (not pictured) for the backing.

 I am now 27 weeks (haven't taken this weeks pic yet). 

Have my glucose test tomorrow (YUMMY I hear).

My friend made a chalkboard frame for all of her pics when she

was prego with her little girl...

Hers were a lot cuter! :P

Oh well :)

Little man's room has started to come together.

The plan (theme & colors) are set, 

just have to piece all the components together.

.:It's a... :.

 16 Week Appointment 02Jan2013

We are thrilled, thrilled I tell you, to welcome a little boy in June!

I was 16w2d on appointment day and he measured at 16w4d 

(right on track!)

He is defiantly a boy. I can't get a good pic of the ultrasound printout, but the "you know what" is easy to spot. :)

Now I can can start having the fun of imagining by dream nursery for this little guy!

Also, got our new car tonight! Have been a good girl and saved over a year and found an AWESOME car within out budget.

2007 Mazda CX7

Little dude will be mighty comfy!
