Projects!

This weekend was project central at our house! (My poor husband must think I have lost my mind...) We knew that we wanted to paint the nursery because it hasn't been painted since we moved in and there were a ton of little "pin" holes in the walls and we have no idea what paint color our walls are so we haven't been able to patch them- needless to say it has been making me nuts since I noticed them shortly after moving in. So we finally decided on some colors- a bright/light blue and grey! (Very daring for us monochromatic types). When we first started with the grey I was really nervous that it was more purple than grey and everything would be ruined, a little sleep and some daylight thankfully proved me wrong and we have a beautiful brownish grey pair of walls! The blue was the perfect shade with the grey and everything came together nicely! We even found a cute car town rug on craigslist that is grey/blue (because what little boys room is complete without a car mat to play on??)



one grey wall and one blue wall all done!

 While we were waiting for paint to dry Aaron got to work repainting all of the shiny gold things in the house- i.e. door knobs and the fireplace! Thanks to some smart ladies on Pinterest who posted how to use spray paint to spruce up just about anything!! We only spent about $10 for the paint to cover about 15 door knobs! Major savings if you ask us (just don't look too closely we are not professionals but they look pretty good!) :)
 Tah-dah! The finished room! It looks so cute!
Now we just need the lil man to come and enjoy it! (Just not too early).

22 Weeks- headed to church

Aaron got a Red Lobster gift card at work a week or so ago and we decided after a long day of painting and cleaning and projects we would clean up and head out for dinner! We snagged this shot on the way out the door- I told Aaron that I was feeling "lop-sidded" all night and maybe the lil guy was sitting crooked? Things are still going well, aside from a few headaches and increasingly crazy blood sugars but I really can't complain!
