We went back to the house today to pick out carpet for the bedrooms. We also went to a few baby stores and a lighting store. Here is what we have picked out so far….

We bought this end table today because we needed a

small table for the living room (Pottery Barn)

We also bought this light fixture for the entry way foyer of the house.

It goes indoors, we both really like the rustic look and the rubbed bronze finishes.

Granite was installed today-here is the sink!

Backsplash

Tile has been layed, just needs grout

At the baby store there was a lot of cute stuff, but I saw this bedding for baby Jarrett! Bonnie is doing her nursery in monkeys and I thought this was too cute!

Is it too early to start taking bump pictures? I’m going on 18 weeks and right now I just think I look fat rather than pregnant so that is why I am reluctant to post anything! LOL! It just makes me want to buy one of these….

Well, we got the house! Woohoo! I’m so excited because for the past 8 years of our marriage we’ve only lived in base housing, 1 bdrm apts, or in-laws houses!

So it’s so nice to finally have a place to call HOME. We met the builder today and picked out tile, flooring, and granite. We should have a move in date of the beginning of November…just in time for Christmas to put up a tree 🙂

These are recent pictures from Martha Stewart Magazine the Halloween edition. She has some amazing ideas…and these were just a few.

Doesn’t Martha look scary?
Owl pumpkins…oh my!

That is the big day when we find out what we are having! FINALLY! I hate all the suspense and it’s killing me ahhhhh!!!! I had a doctor appt. this morning and heard the baby’s heartbeat and he/she was kicking a lot! I am starting to feel a lot better lately thank the Lord! Also, thank you all for your prayers and well wishes….this has been a rough few months for me and I know I haven’t been as active in commenting, but I am still reading your blogs as I can.

We will hopefully finalize something on the house by the end of the week, still not sure what that decision is going to be yet…but hopefully we will get it!

My Mom is planning a double baby shower in Arkansas for me and Bonnie. I am so excited to go home in November and be able to spend a whole week with family and friends. It just restores my spirits when I go home and see family 🙂

Hope you all are having a good week! Much love, Becky
(Now I am off to look at all YOUR bloggies!)
