We Have Everything!

         On Monday we decided to get the last of our items for our little boy. He is going to be here in less than two weeks (well, that is when his due date is), so we figured we better get the last of his things so we are ready and not running around last minute. When we started this whole getting prepared for Ethan (baby's name), we came up with a list of all the items we needed and put an estimate price next to each item. Hooray for budgeting!  Then we broke down the categories and decided we would buy a category every week. It actually worked out pretty good. 

We are storing everything on our huge diaper changing table. Our pack and play has a changing table so we put this one to good use for now!

We were able to stock up a bit on diapers in multiple sizes and wipes and spend a little extra on clothes and toys. It is so stressful going shopping to buy baby things because of the expense. Even if you are only getting a few items you still manage to spend at least $50-60 on each trip. And it's only going to get more expensive from here on out. But it is an expense that is so worth it! So, I can officially say we have everything we need! ... at least that I know of! I am 1 week and 3 days from my due date and we are ready for this little guy to get here!

Being Pregnant... I Cant Stop Organizing!

When I think about this baby coming very soon I want everything to be perfect in our home. I cannot stop organizing my cabinets and finding ways to make Ethan's corner more comfy and cozy. I made a few items over my pregnancy that I have put up on the walls. And then if I dont like that look i'll change it with something else. 

We recently got a printer which has opened new doors for decorating. I bought some frames at our local thrift store and painted it grey and printed out this cute little owl to put in the frame. I love it! I was going to do a set of three owls but decided that simple is better. If you didn't know yet the theme I choose for his corner in our room is owls, yellow, and grey. 

Our bedroom has seen some decor improvements as well. I used our wonderful printer and printed out some pictures of Travis and I and put them on the mantel above our bed. And I finally put up the wording Travis bought me over a year ago. I waited til we were going to be in a place for a while. We signed our contract for another year hear in this apartment so I thought it was safe to put it up! 

It makes our room feel more like a home!

I have gotten carried away with reorganizing our storage space, cabinets in the kitchen, and cleaning and scrubbing the bathroom. I kinda like the house being so clean. And if it starts to get messy, well, that doesnt last too long.
