37 Weeks, Then and Now

 This was me 37 weeks with Sophie. 

   This is me now with Molly at 37 weeks.

Molly's Nursery

So for Molly's nursery, we did an owl theme.  Most of the decorations are DIY projects, some of which I found on blogs or pintrest.

I can't remember exactly where I saw this idea, I think another blog, but I recovered an old lamp shade with some cute owl ribbon from Hobby Lobby.

I got the idea for the owl garland/bunting from the Spunky Junky blog.  The owl clock came from Kirklands when I was back in NC at Christmas.

I made bigger owls like the ones on the bunting to put at either end of her name.  I put her name on an old aspen tree limb from our yard.

I made an owl pillow from an old tote bag.  I had seen owl pillows on Pottery Barn kids, but I figured I could make my own and came up with this.

The owl coat hanger also came from Kirklands.  My mama found me this great owl hat and my sister got me the owl back pack.  

I turned the plain old brown curtains that I had in the room into "custom" curtains by simply sewing ribbon onto them in a pattern.  I used the same ribbon that I covered the lamp with.

I made this cute hair bow holder from an old frame and ribbon.  This idea was from pintrest :)

I added a framed owl from a calender print to the bookshelf.

I think the nursery turned out great, it is one of my favorite rooms in the house!

34 weeks

Today I am 34 weeks pregnant.  I praise God that this pregnancy has been so easy and complication free!  Molly will be here in just a short time now, we are so ready to meet her!

I know I haven't posted in a while.  We were so busy during the holidays with traveling and everything that comes with the holidays and we are finally getting back to the swing of things when it comes to our normal routine.   We had a lot of fun visiting out family in NC and seeing some old friends.

This is Sophie Christmas morning at our house.

Sophie with all her cousins in NC.

Sophie with her nana (Travis' mom) and her aunt Tonya.

My family gave me a baby shower while we were there too, that was a lot of fun :).

I can't believe that yesterday I was 33 weeks pregnant.  Molly is going to be here so soon and we are all very excited for her arrival.

Today we have been married 5 years :)

Funny Little Girl

So for this story, you need a couple points of reference.  First of all, we talk about the hospital sometimes with Sophie, just how we will go there to have baby Molly and people also go there when they're sick.  Secondly, you need to know that my doctor is Dr. Parker and Sophie has been with us to see him a couple of times during this pregnancy.

Okay, so now for the funny thing she said today.  Sophie hit her head when she got in the car today, she then proceeded to tell us that she needed to go to the hospital and that Dr. Parker would make her feel better.  Haha, it was so funny, well at least we thought it was!!!

Christmas Time is Here

We have been trying to come up fun things to do, in the evenings especially, with Sophie.  The night we decorated our Christmas tree, Travis wanted us to dress up in our Christmas best, ha!

Then one day, Sophie made some Christmas crafts.  She had a lot of fun with these.

Another night, Sophie wanted to dress up as a princess, so Travis dressed up as her prince and they had a dance in the living room.  Our girls are lucky to have such a great daddy!

We've made gingerbread houses a couple of times.

We went to our Christmas parade, it was only 17 degrees, but we had fun!

Sophie and Travis dressed up as super heros another night.

We've had a lot of fun.  Some nights we make hot chocolate or apple cider and watch a Christmas movie.  Other nights we go riding around town to look at Christmas lights.  This has to be one of Sophie's favorite activities.  She always says, "look mama," or "oh goodness."  It's cute!

This is Sophie after church on Sunday.
