Today I ventured out at my normal 11:00 hour to stay busy and out of the house, away from the sweets and lounging around watching talk shows all morning. I have been trying to stay busy walking, reading, cleaning, or driving to do something!
I wanted to show you some fun things I purchased today for Miss Avery's room! I found the most adorable flowers, butterflies, and dragonflies at Hobby that were the exact colors of her room! I wanting to incorporate these on the wall above her crib with a Bible verse painted, and these placed throughout almost like they are flying up towards the sky! I just fell in love with them and had to get them! I think I am going to place a few of these on pillows, canvas', and even possibly on the tops of the curtains. I also found a few pillows that matched. They were 66% off so I snached those really quick! My lady making the bedding is making 4 to 5 pillows, but I want them all bunched on this piece of furniture that I am having covered in zebra along with some of her stuffed animals, and this will be placed in front of the window!
I found several paint colors that I love, and have decided to go with a pale green, like a celery green. I can't decide, but may do the main wall in a darker funky green, and the others in this softer green. I am going to test them on the walls in the daylight first, but think they will really pull the small green I am doing in some of my fabrics. I called the lady that I am having paint a few things on the walls today and left her a message, because I want to get it started in the next 2/3 weeks! The bedding will be done by then. I also found a chandelier that I love at Lowes that is black so I am going to pick that up anyday now. I am doing some black lamp shade covers and doing the same fringe that will be throughout her room around the edges. Simply my DREAM nursery.. fun, fun, fun!
On the Avery front, I am now 21 weeks and feeling fantastic!! I have been feeling a lot of pressure, and not sleeping well at night but that is expected. I feel her move constantly now, a lot at night time!!! What I most love about being at this stage of my pregnancy is the ENERGY that I have. I am so busy running ALL day and I love that feeling of not being sick and lazy like the first few months. It wasn't me. However, on the downside my hormones are nutso. I don't feel hateful, but I cry at almost everything and I feel so senstive! Again, expected so I am just working through each emotion as it comes! I go to the doctor again on the 27th!
