Little Big Head - 7 Weeks in Rewind

Now that things are settling down, my hope is to regularly update the blog with Quinn's growth and progress.  Here are the last 7 weeks in rewind....

 

 

 

 

 

LBH has changed from a little peanut to an active chunk!

Little Big Head - Week 1

From this point out, Quinn shall be known by his nickname in utero.....Little Big Head!  We brought LBH home and enjoyed some time just the 3 of us.

When LBH was a week old, a friend from high school came and took some newborn pictures.  You can check out her work on facebook - Falynn Dial Photography.

 

 

 

 

 

 

LBH is so precious!  I am cherishing the days where he just wants to be held and sleep on my chest.

30 before 30 - #24 Update

So I am nearing the end of this pregnancy and my hubs and I will soon welcome our first child into the world.  It has been a fairly easy pregnancy, no morning sickness, a little back pain, and a moderate weight gain.  I have survived the heat of the summer by not departing our home when the sun is up. 

Here is a pictoral progression of the pregnancy:

Nursery Completed

My wonderful husband finish the nursery and it looks awesome!  Here is how it looked when it was a guest room 3.5 years ago:

Here is the same area of the room but now a nursery:
  

My husband refinished an antique dresser and we added a convertible crib & an awesome chair from IKEA to the room

Kitchen Organization

I am in the beginning phases of nesting and decided to tackle our kitchen.  I have to see things in order to remember them so our fridge has become a catch-all.  My hubby gripes about the mess I create so I decided to do something about it. 

          BEFORE                                                       AFTER

I did some research on various blogs and created a hybrid of what I found.

It is a work in progress but a vast improvement!!!
