Nesting...

Alright blog readers...here is another much delayed post (finally)! The due date of our baby girl is still 14 weeks and 5 days away, but we have been busier than ever! Doing what, you ask?...nesting, of course! Thankfully, among all the nesting activities, we found some time for warmth, sun and relaxation in AZ with good friends...sadly, I didn't take many pictures on our 5 day trip to Scottsdale, but I did manage to capture a few of these adorable girls, Rhyan and Abbey (picture of them below at the Phoenix Zoo). We had a fantastic time and can't wait to see them again!


Before we left for AZ, we began work on the nursery and added some finishing touches once we returned home. Here is a sneak peak of the work in progress...

And now...the BEFORE and AFTER pictures:

Here's a cute shot of our sweet and anxious boy, Beaumont. He has since gotten comfortable with the changes in her room and often sleeps in there next to the crib!

AND...as promised, here is a belly shot at 25 weeks:

As if finishing a nursery wasn't enough work...we have taken on a MUCH bigger nesting project...finishing our 1250 sq ft basement!!! After only 2 Saturdays of work, it is almost completely framed...now we are ready for a new hot water heater, toilet, tub, sink and plumbing...then onto electrical, insulation, sheetrock, mud, tape, texture, paint, tile, carpet and a new fireplace and we will be all set!

Let's hope we can get most of this basement addition completed before our new little "addition" arrives!
