Baby Bump Photos and Nursury Pics

Well, I updated you all with nursery pics a few weeks ago and we have continued to work on it. Actually, at this point Norma, Bryan's mom, has continued to work on it and I have tried to help a little without getting in the way! :) She has been a Norma has made 3 fitted sheets for the crib, 1 fitted sheet for the bassinet, and a bed skirt for the crib! All with our cute little animal print! It is so adorable and she has done a wonderful job. Norma, her husband Bob, and Bryan's sister Rebecca also gave us our crib mattress so we could start putting all these sheets on it and show them off! Thank you so much...the crib looks so complete! We have one more blanket my mom is working on that is a little thicker, but in the animal print as well and then all the bedding is done! Yeah! Check out these adorable pics!





So I have some sad news. Bryan and I have been taking pictures of our little baby bump from the very begining and a few weeks ago our computer crashed. I had uploaded all of our pics to the wrong hard drive and we lost them all. I have no belly pictures from before 20 weeks now! :( Very sad. I thought I would go ahead and upload the ones from 20 weeks, 24 weeks and 30 weeks! That is really when the baby bump started growing by leaps and bounds anyway! :)




And finally...you would think we would have put the house projects on hold, but oh no...we have to finish a few more things before the baby comes! Bryan and I went out of town for his nephews graduation a few weeks ago and Mom and Dad surprised us by painting the main hallway around the staircase and the upstairs hallway a beautiful tan color I had picked out. I had no idea they were doing this until we got home and found it! They did a beautiful job and the hallway is so warm now. Plus our pictures look great hanging on the wall now that it has a fresh coat of paint. They also took all the bedroom doors down upstairs except the master and painted them as well. No more yucky brown doors! Thank you so much Mom and Dad! Check it out...





But wait...there is still more...
One of the big projects we wanted to do this summer was redo some of the backyard fence so we could finish fencing off the pool (safety reasons...keep little Kaylee from being able to just get down to the pool area) and also redo the stairs and decking down to the pool. (Also partially for safety reasons and also for looks...the old stairs and the jungle down there were not a pretty sight and they were a breeding ground for bugs! Yuck. We are having the fence done this next week. They are doing an 8ft cedar fence all the way around, which will be beautiful and help with some of the privacy. Then when they finish the fence, Bryan and my Dad can finish the pool fence and the deck/stairs around the pool. It will be so nice and much safer for all of us. I can't wait to see it! Here are some before pics. The first is what it looked like when we bought the house and the rest are since they have cleared things out for the fence and deck.
