27 Weeks

What a GREAT week it’s been.  Harper has been moving like crazy and has had the hiccups (that I can identify) twice!!    

This weekend was Halloween, we got to sit in our driveway and hand out tons of candy to the little ones in our neighborhood.  It was truly one of my favorite memories in the house thus far. First, we had dinner with some neighbors and it was so fun!! Then, we set up our little bistro with candy (that we bought WAY too much of) in the driveway…. :)  Most of the costumes were SOOOOO cute.  Our favorite was a little dinosaur (it was handmade and ADORBS) the little boy (around 4 or 5) kept tripping on his tail and it was so awesome!  He had a little sister roughly 3 who was a strawberry!!! We LOVED it!! :)  Then we went over to our other neighbor’s house for some beers and campfire!

I feel just great, although it’s getting more difficult to sleep…. My tum just feels heavy..... Also, I am not a fan of sleeping on my side just in general.  What I am finding helps is if I sleep on my right side with the body pillow behind me and between my legs…. I know it seems awkward (and don’t be fooled, it is) but it works…..  Lastly, showering at night seems to help just get me tired and put me in a “sleep-state of mind”…

We are on the 3 month (or 12 week) countdown – starting Wednesday…. CRAZY…. 86 days until Harper's due date….

As soon as I get my camera I will post pictures from my shower that my mother in law and sister in laws threw me.  It was sooooo beautiful and such a blast!!

AHH!! XOXO

Fall Mantel

Wanted to show off our first ever FALL MANTEL!!!!!!  We wanted to keep it as simple as possible so we could use it though Thanksgiving.  I think next Halloween, we may have a different mantel for Halloween and thanksgiving because DUH, its more fun for kids - but this year, we wanted to give it a go anyways!

Wednesday, I am going to make a fall wreath for the front of our house! WOOT WOOT!

We are in week 25 of the pregnancy!!  It's been sooooo wonderful - Kevin felt Harper move for the FIRST TIME EVER last night, his face lit up, it was so fun!  He started singing a goofy song to her and that's when she kicked - it was the first time I had ever seen my belly move as well (even though I have been feeling her for a while now)!

Our nursery is painted WOOO HOOOO and the crib is up!! (although we are waiting to set up the bedding)!

Here is Kevin and I hanging our "Harper" sign (courtesy of my sister in law Megan) :)

More to come on the nursery - I will update pictures as we get them :)

XOXO
