22 Weeks

We have sailed past the halfway point in this pregnancy. I cannot believe how fast it is flying by! Maybe it's because I have two more friends who are pregnant, or because it's football season, or because the holidays are coming up, but I feel like I have NO time left to get ready for this baby, and I haven't even started yet!

Fortunately, we DID find some time to take some pictures. I've heard that baby #2 gets slighted in the picture department because all of the attention was on the 1st baby. I think this one will be the opposite. With my favorite camera in my bag everywhere I go, I don't miss an opportunity for picture taking. 

Hubby was kind enough to take some belly shots for me last week! He's getting much better at using my camera!

 

Even though the wall is crumbly and dingy...that's what I love about it! I've been telling him for weeks I wanted to take some pictures there. 

 

Brownie points for anyone who can name where this wall is!!

 

Hubby didn't like the "haze" in this picture, but I think the sun flare is perfect!

 

I didn't take many belly pictures with Grayson, so I want to make sure I get these while I still can.

Remember the sneak peek I shared last week with painted baby feet??

New Shades

I was recently sent some sunglasses to review c/o Firmoo.com. They have a great selection of prescription and sunglasses to fit all personalities. I was extra excited to get to PICK my pair! 

 

I chose these little beauties....

 

I like my glasses oversized to cover more of my face

(Sun protection people!!)

Hubby says they're too big...but he always says that about my glasses.

 

I love the ombre brown color of the frame, and the details on the earpiece.

 

They are comfortable to wear AND look good on. All of their glasses come with a hard and soft case, which is great when you have a toddler around who likes to throw things.

 

They offer free glasses to first time customers too. Check out the details HERE. Head on over and check them out! Just because it's fall doesn't mean the sun won't be out...dress your eyes up!

Happy Mail!!

I got some happy mail today! I finally ordered the fabric that I'll use to make the bedding and accessories for Baby #2's room.

 

I got this wonderful package of fabric from Westwood Acres on Etsy. The fabric line is "Out to Sea" by Sarah Jane for Michael Miller. I got the "Ahoy There" colorway, full of rich blues and reds.

 

 

I ordered this adorable border print of sailing boats to make a crib skirt. Won't they be adorable sailing under the crib.

 

 

I receieved a fat 1/8th bundle of all of the "boy" prints to make his quilt out of. These are my three favorite prints. Whales and Norwalls, steering wheels and anchors.

 

They will look great in a patchwork.

 

 

There are even more prints in the "blue" scheme, from maps, to pirates, to an alphabet spelled out in rope! Perfect for a nursery.

 

 

There are more cute prints in accenting reds and yellows.

 

 

Now, if I can find some time to sit down and sew these up! The nursery is totally naked right now, needed paint and a crib. Those will come soon enough, but when they do, I want these to be ready to throw in there too! Baby will be here before I know it.
