Oh Hey, I Finally Finished Something

And yes, I'm still pregnant.

We finally got around to finishing Lillian's new big girl room... only 2 months late.  We were really hoping to move her in long before the little bambino showed up, but here I am 39 weeks pregnant and she still hasn't slept in there.  She does play in there and all her clothes are in there, so I think she understands it's her room.  I guess we're just going to wing it and hope for the best when she gets transferred to sleeping in there.

The words along the shelf and the bird mobile were made by moi (I have a brief tutorial for the words to post another time).  Phil painted the "dresser" which was originally two extremely ugly poop brown night stands.  He painted them white and painted the handles green - which I loooove!  The bookshelf came from IKEA (I'm thinking about painting the backboard of it), and the mirror came from a consignment shop. She has a walk in closet, so there's plenty of space to store her cute little wardrobe.  Everything else we had on hand!

Overall it's exactly what I was hoping for, something timeless, girly, and a bit sophisticated without being too grown up.

I'm too pregnant for this...

And who really cares about that survey anyway?




Yep, I'm over it. Is it July yet?

We're busy. Sooooo busy.  On top of all the last minute stuff trying to prepare for another baby, we decided to buy property and build a house.  But before we start building our future home, we need to make some pretty big improvements to our current home before selling it... Oh yeah, and did I mention we're having a baby?!  oy.

Those horses are hanging out in our future yard :) 
(Don't worry, we aren't taking their home. 
They belong in those stables in the background and have plenty of land over there.)

I have a lot more to share about the new property and the home improvements we're making, but I'm just too pregnant for this blog.  Or anything else really.  I just want to kick my feet up with a banana split in my hand and sit around until July.  Oh yeah, but I have a toddler.  A full time walking toddler.
