25 Weeks A Yawn and A Bubble

                            I dressed him in Eggplantish purple!



How far along? 25 Weeks
Total weight gain: 7 lbs.
Maternity clothes? Old Navy fold over skirts, leggings with loose knee length skirts and stretchy tee's and tanks

Stretch marks? Not yet
Sleep: Not sleeping so great, I get neckache's often and wake up at 1:30 am and pretty much toss and turn till 4 am when Bright Eyes wakes up to head off to work.
Best moment this week: Last week since this post is late. Confirmation that we are having a boy, and seeing him yawn during the ultrasound. Bright Eyes said he yawned and a bubble floated out.... so perhaps it was a burp! Plus seeing Bright Eyes reaction to the ultrasound.
Miss Anything? Sunshine!! We moved to Washington State and I miss the sun.... but that is not the baby's fault.
Movement: Lots of it! In Church he goes crazy during the Hymns and the Choir specials. And at night right before bed.
Food cravings: Hot and Spicy foods , Hot Cheetos, and Citrus fruits....... but hot and spicy doesn't help my heartburn.
Anything making you queasy or sick: No not that I can think of.
Gender: Boy Boy Boy..... we got pictures to prove it!
Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Heartburn, some side pain when walking fast but that is about it.
Belly Button in or out? Almost Gone! It gets shallower and shallower daily. Bright Eyes thinks it is funny.
Wedding rings on or off? On and not tight at all.
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy most of the time , but also a little stressed with the new area and move

Looking forward to: Decorating the Nursery, I am starting a little late. I honestly have nothing for this baby and he is coming so fast

Bright Eyes has another love named Eureka

My husband has wanted a really good vacuum since we moved in. He wanted a Dyson and we do have the funds but I don't want to spend them all because we have other things ( baby things) that we will probably have to buy. So we bought a comparable product to the Dyson. The Eureka Airspeed bagless vacuum for $96.00 normally $120 or so. People who have owned Dyson have said it is the next best thing. So we have it now and it has amazing suction, Bright Eyes loves it so far and has vacuumed the whole house. Here are some pics of my husband playing with his new toy and also the dog , just because I want to throw him in there too.


TADA! New Vac


One happy dude... I have never seen anyone this thrilled whilst choring.


 Dancing with Eureka... not really but in this pic it looks like he is.





There is a cute little guy.

Nerf ball, Walmart had them on sale for one dollar, we bought five.


I love this pup, I just hope he is happy in the new home.

Interior Design May Be Your Niche Honey

My husband and I have just moved into a Town home in Washington State. This last week or so we have been awaiting furniture deliveries and scoping out sales for home accents. So far our best looking room is the living room, my next project is getting the Nursery started, but right now the Nursery has a bunch of Jeff's gear in there. Here are some pics of what we have so far, and honestly I did a little of the decorating but my husband did most of the decorating and choosing. I told him he might want to reconsider his career field instead of Engineer he may want to go the Interior Designer route, to which he responded " I have always liked decorating things , but I wouldn't fit in with the other "male" designers". Those of you who know Jeff probably know he did not put it so nicely , but I only altered one word, hence the air quotes.


Living room furniture

Vases and reeds

Jeff picked out the vases and centerpieces

Very plain kitchen... havent decorated yet.

The home is a minty green but it looks grey here,
and a tiny garage .




Love's Choice

Crochet Hearts by: Allsocute@Etsy.com

I have the ultimate love the love of my Savior Jesus Christ, His love for me is a story if true love. But not only do I have His love I also have the love of my husband. My kind, caring and sweet husband. My husband loves the Lord and in doing so he loves me as the Bible intended a man to love his wife. He puts aside all things selfish , his heart desires to provide for his wife regardless of his workload. He loves even when he is exhausted and hard to make the effort. He overlooks my many faults and always finds the good in me. Bright Eyes says " Love is a Choice", I cannot express how happy I am that he chose me to express that love to. I Love this man, I lie sleepless in bed some nights , wondering how I became so blessed, and thanking the Lord for what I have been gifted with. My Bright Eyes , my Love, my Valentine, my Best Friend, my Husband. I am proud to call you mine, and I pray that I will never know another earthly love like this one, because I want this one to last as long as the Lord allows me to live.
