Happy Halloween!

First, I must give props to my Mama, because she ended up being the one who sewed my entire costume.  I pretty much did nothing other than cut out all the pieces!  Isn't my Mama awesome?
 Today at school.  Everyone, especially the kids loved my costume.  I spent the entire day speaking what I considered to be a very good Snow White voice.  I got so many hugs from little ones!  I also carried an apple around and pretended like I was about to take a bite to see kids' reactions and many of them shouted, "No! Don't eat it! It's poisoned!"  I thought that was pretty hilarious!
 Apparently I'm just asking for a deep sleep!
 When I got home, I subjected Nellie to her Halloween costume from last year and we had a photo shoot.  We were quite bored since Daddy was working and since there were no trick-or-treaters.  (They postponed trick-or-treating until tomorrow due to severe storms!  I HATE storms!) 
               I realize she look terrified here, but I promise she was fine.  She shed the hat about 15 seconds later and then I ended her torture of the sweater about 5 minutes later.  I just can't resist the urge to dress her up since she's so cute. 
 I stole this picture from my friend, Stephanie!  We all got together after school to snap a picture.  As you can see, we had a pretty diverse group of costumes!!  I love that where I work we are all willing to have fun and dress up.  The kids also got to dress up as their favorite book characters, so it was just such a fun day!!

BS #3- 22 weeks

22 weeks with Reid, Savannah, and BS #3! 😍 How far along: 22 weeks  Weight gain- up 7 lbs overall. I have been eating more sweets this week and need to reign it in! Buttttt.... Exercise- Reid, Zach, Savannah, and I did take a long walk today in our neighborhood and I’m hoping to do it daily.  Most exciting thing this week- baby girl had hiccups for the first time this week and I could feel them all! Zach also got to feel her a couple times for the first time this week! Same timing as he did with Savannah! So cool! Cravings- sweet, Chick- fil- a, Parlor doughnuts  Aversions/ anything making you sick- not this week! Yay!!! Reid’s thoughts- he still likes to kiss my belly and ran in and talk to baby and tell her how precious she is! One day he told her he can’t wait to see her in October! Savannah’s thoughts- I have started asking her when she’s laying on her changing table if Mama has a baby in her belly and one day she patted her own b...

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                     ...
