And the fun begins!!

So today I was talking to Brock about how I wanted to do the baby's room as far as the painting part goes. I had to obviously go onto the sight that had the crib set that I wanted because it had the paint colors that go with it. When I went on there the first thing that I saw was that it was on SALE!! Wahooo!! I was so excited I could barely contain my excitement. Since I have been looking E V E R Y W H E R E for the fabric to make it, and had no such luck I was super excited to see that it was on sale. Yes, I did want to make it with my mom because I think that it would be fun, but oh well. I would like to have the set more than making some random one that I didn't really care for. SOOO... Now that I have the set I can start painting and get the correct colors to match the set. I found this super cute idea that someone did in their baby boy's room.

Isn't that wall adorable!?!?!? Of course it had to have polkadots on it. I know I know... I'll wait while you roll your eyes and laugh. Go ahead...

The part that I am unsure about is the color of the strips. I know that the other three walls I want to be the green that is in the bedding, so now what to I do for the stripes? I want to do the polkadots in the darker pink and the monkey color of brown. So any ideas for the stripes? Here's a picture of the crib set again in case some of you may have forgotten.

I am very excited to start painting next week! It's getting closer every day, and I am very excited to meet my little one for the very first time in a couple of months.

Now for a pregnancy update:

I am starting to get a little bit of a belly, but people still tell me that I don't look pregnant. I think there is a little belly there, but I guess other people see something different. That's ok, though, I'm just hoping that it will pop out here in the next few weeks before Brock's little brother comes home from his mission. We haven't told him that I am pregnant because we wanted to surprise him at the airport when he comes home on the 29th. Yes, I know... What if I'm not showing by then? Well, I will try my hardest to stick it out and make sure that I eat a big meal before we go, that seems to make my belly look a little bigger. :) Anyway, I am not getting nauseated hardly at all anymore which has been really nice. I feel like I can eat normal again. Because of this, I actually gained some weight at my appointment that I had on Tuesday!!! Wahoo! That was a big relief for me and for my Dr since he told me at my last appointment that I needed to concentrate on that. He told me that baby ( oh by the way we decided to name her Addyson Mari) is doing great and she sounds great, but that she's a brat because she won't get off my tailbone. Yep, that's why I don't have much of a belly because she is hiding in my back!!! Now that she's getting bigger, I traded being sick for horrible low back and sciatic nerve pain instead. Doesn't that sound like fun? If it's not one thing it's always something else... I'm actually ok with the back pain because it's not too far off from what I used to have before I got pregnant. It's so much better than being nauseated and throwing up all the time. :)

Anyway, Addy is kicking up a storm more times than not, and I love to feel her little and big kicks. Now when she flips you can see this lump moving from one end of my stomach to the other, and it seems like one of her favorite things to do is push up really hard on my stomach so that there is this bulge. It's really funny, and her daddy gets a kick out of it every time.
