One thing I am so excited about is reading with the baby. I think that it is so important to create good habits early, and I plan on looking at books often! My dad installed my book shelves recently, and my mom brought me all of my favorite childhood books to start filling them up!
The nursery is really coming together nicely, and I am getting very excited. Only 6 weeks until my due date!

Well Cooper and I have made it to week 33 of this pregnancy! It has certainly been a rough journey, but each day we are closer to d-day! Delivery, that is.
I had a good couple of weeks of no nausea, but unfortunately that has come back. Oh well. I am pretty good at figuring out when I am going to get sick so I have plenty of planning time.
My wonderful husband graduated from firefighter rookie school on October 19th! I am so very proud of him, and am so proud to be a firemans wife.
Also, at the beginning of October my schedule changed and I now work the night shift here at Arkansas Childrens Hospital. I absolutely love my job, and I am so happy on my new shift. Going from working 3-11pm five days a week to only working three days a week from 7pm-7am has been a wonderful change. I plan to continue working after I get back from maternity leave.
Baby Cooper is now around 4 pounds and close to 16 inches long. He is very active, and watching my belly is very reminiscent of a certain scene from the movie Alien.
I almost have the nursery complete. We have bookshelves and lamps and everything is just coming together!! I also have finally started buying some cute outfits, so he's no longer in danger of having to go naked.
And without further ado, here is a picture of my ever expanding belly!!

Ten weeks until I get to meet Cooper! Also, next Friday Tim graduates from rookie school and will be a firefighter! I am so proud of him. I know the past eleven weeks have been tough, and he has worked so hard to get to this point. Got a little bit more done in the nursery, the book shelves are up and we have lamp shades! Still need to finish the curtains and the mobile, but then I think the DIY projects will be done! I'll post pictures soon!

And all through the house....
Not a creature was stirring....
Except for two giant pups......
A pregnant momma.....
And a Cooper baby in a tummy!!
Well, tomorrow I start my third trimester! It has been quite the journey, I don't think I ever expected there for be as many ups and downs as there have been.
It is weird that in 12 short weeks I should be meeting my lil' man!
Cravings? Sweets. Man oh man. And fruit. Can't get enough fruit! Today I made a combo of the two....I made some apple muffins with melted cinnamon sugar on top! Holy cow. Deelish. Let me show you the yummy picture!
Also, tonight I decided to just bite the bullet, sit down, and finish the bumper pads for Cooper's crib. I think they turned out pretty adorable, if I do say so myself!
Check back for a bump picture, probably on Wednesday!

Hey everyone!! Well Cooper is now 27 weeks and three days along on his growing journey! No pictures this week, but since I've graduated to every two weeks appointments (read-I have to be awake and looking decent before noon) you will get a happy little bump picture next week!!
Worked a little more on the nursery this week. Want to see some pictures?
The curtains are not finished yet. I'm silly and made them too short so when ever I get the motivation I'll be adding some of that navy blue chevron you see on the chair to the bottom.
I've also only seen two out of the six bumpers for the crib! I might need to get going on that!! I ran out of ties which is why the project got put on hold. But since I've rectified that by purchasing more bias tape, I need to get started!!
Projects still in the works? Gallery wall. Book shelves. Mobile!
Hope you enjoy the bright sunny nursery as much as I do!! One of my favorite places in the house now!
