Thank you Kelley for my awesome new blog! You rock!

Our Latest Little Project...

I thought I would put some before pictures on here of my living room which is being converted into an office. If you have ever been to our house you know that we never ever use our living room. Not because like most houses it holds all the fancy crystal and knick knacks that arent allowed to be touched...we dont use ours because 1. There is no tv in there, so Matt and I would be bored pretty fast without The Office or 90210(for me) to watch and 2. because our old uncomfortable sofas from Matts old townhouse are in there and you can only sit there for so long..





As you can see it also doubles as Baileys play room...but our old office will soon be Bailey's playroom. On either side of the window will be closets and I am going to have a window seat with storage! I have always wanted a window seat....




There will soon be french doors in this opening..yay so excited! And a opening where our lovely fake tree is...that will open up into the hallway...and keep your fingers crossed for me that we get crown molding (we are still not sure if we are doing that yet)..eventually but maybe not yet:)

I will update with pictures as soon as the work begings...hopefully tomorrow!

My weekend

Saturday was a busy busy day...lots of errands and my friend Jessica's bachlorette party! It is pretty hard to run errands these days with Bailey...she never wants to sit still and riding in her stroller/or shopping cart for too long is just unacceptable to her. Thankfully I have my mom who comes with me a lot so I can actually get some stuff accomplished. One thing I wanted to do on Saturday was to get Bailey's big girl bed! She isnt going to need it until she is 2( 4 1/2 months away) but the bed I wanted was on sale and they take forever to come in (they say 8 weeks but I dont believe it). It comes in a couple of different colors but I got black. I know its kind of dark for a little girls room...but I have a vision:) I'll post pictures months from now when her room is done!

I also had to go to the grocery store..and got this funny video of Bailey pushing a miniature grocery cart all around the store (how cool that they have mini carts..another reason to love Trader Joes!)

If anyone knows how I can change this video to be right side up let me know...I tried every way I know how.

Then later on that night was my friend Jessica's bachlorette party which was so much fun. We went out for sushi (which I have finally decided is not my thing) and then went to a fun bar/club afterwards. I had to go home early of course because I had football the next day:( but it was so fun and Im glad that I got to get out a little bit! And Im thankful to my mom for watching b over night!

EASTER

I was going to post all of my Easter pictures last night but was way too tired. It was a long but fun day. Bailey had so much fun looking for Easter eggs with her super cool Elmo basket..Elmo is her FAVORITE thing right now. She was really good at finding eggs and wasnt afraid to get dirty to find them..in this way she is not like her mom:)

My only complaint was the weather! Bailey had the cutest dress to wear but I had to cover it up with a sweatshirt because it was so cold..

Anyways, here are a few pics from our day!

I gave Bailey a milk chocolate ducky

Here is Matts gift from the Easter bunny

Getting Bailey ready (just velcro rollers not hot rollers)

THE END! Hope everyone had a great Easter!

Girls Day Out x 2

Girls Day Out 1:

My mom and I got to go out shopping the other day without Bailey..so we decided to go to a bunch of little shops in Webster/Kirkwood area. There are so many cool little shops and we had so much fun..My favorite though was this cute little shop in Kirkwood called Lass & Laddie. Everything in the store is hand made childrens clothing and it is so cool (Natalie YOU have to go to this store, Im pretty sure you would be obsessed with it just like me). My mom got Bailey the cutest shirt..it rocks. All and all we had lots of fun.

Girls Day Out 2:

Heather, Adelle, Bailey and I went to the zoo today! We had a lot of fun but it was a little chilly and rained on us for the last 10 minutes.. Here are a few pics from today:

Oh and Natalie we missed you! Hope you feel better! We will go again soon..
