No more nurseries!

Well sort of! I mentioned the other day , we are busy cleaning out the kids room to get their big boy and girl beds. Where Frankie's room will officially be a big boy room Ava's will still be part nursery since here and baby sister will be sharing a room (unless we can sell this house!). I decided to take some pictures of their cleaned out rooms to show you guys a before picture before we redo them this weekend! So here goes:

you see that empty space in the corner under the picture (where the anywhere chair is) that's where Ava's twin bed is going!

The bow holder I made =)

We had to move the 2 dressers next to each other, not ideal but works for now.

View from the door, I'm going to need new window treatments, those valances went with Ava's crib bedding set.

View from in front of windows looking out.

Ava's clothes up top and baby girls start of a collection on the bottom, also moved Ava's toys to the bottom of the closet too.

Hooks behind door for Ava's jackets

Poor baby girl, I only managed to clean out 2 drawers for her!! Going to have to work on this!!

Baskets I had for Ava's room from Home Goods, not crazy about color now so we are going to have to spray paint them.

Ava's new twin quilt!! Baby girl has the crib set to match!!

Frankie's crib that we will convert into a full size

It's going to go right under that window on the right.

His furniture next too each other as well. Check out all his new pillows!!

Toy storage!

Frankie's closet with toys on bottom!

That's his bedding in those bags!! Pottery Barn Sports Varsity!

Easter Pictures 2012

So since yesterday I posted Frankie's  not so happy picture with the Easter Bunny, today I thought I would show you some of the professional ones we had done. You are going to notice a lack of Ava in these, that's because (just like the bunny) she was attached to my leg for most of the time. She has become extremely shy these days and we need to work on it.

In other news we are busy with redoing the kiddos bedrooms , their big boy and girl beds are coming this Saturday so we have been busy making room for them and cleaning out. I cant wait for them to come together, here is what they used to look like. Frankie's crib is getting converted into a full size and Ava is getting a twin that matches her set, because baby girl will be using her current crib. I will try and post a before picture post this week!!

WW: Mug Shot Easter Bunny

One child was attached to my body like a spider monkey and other other, well the picture speaks for itself, no? Ohhh the memories!! and embarrassment for years to come!

Feeling- Extremely Blessed but Stressed beyond belief
Health- Honestly, not so hot, mostly from the stress. I recently found out I have a blood clotting syndrome (more to come on this later) so right now we are just waiting on blood test results and seeing what next step is.

Next Appointment- Next Tuesday the 22nd and I can not wait. I will be 18w and 1 day

New Design!!

So Becca from Jumping Jax Designs freshened up the blog with a new design! What do you all think? The colors make me happy and remind me of spring which is almost here =) I guess now that I have a nice new design and I tried to clean out some clutter I should actually try and blog more!! I wasn't feeling too well and the Braxton Hicks started so its time to get serious and try and stay off them feet as much as possible so I'm thinking blogging will be a good time passer!! Hope you all have a great weekend!
