Style

My little girl has her own sense of style.  Including wearing her sunglasses upside down.

Look Out

Caelyn loves her binoculars.  Her favorite thing is to climb up on the ottoman and look for Phil.

Zoo with Daddy

Once a week we try and do something "special" with Caelyn as we prepare for the business that will come with a new baby.  We love to go to the zoo and this time Daddy was able to come with us.  It was a beautiful day and we had so much fun.

Hopefully we will get to go again before Baby Jackson arrives, if not we will wait until it cools down and visit in the fall.

A little bit behind

So I have gotten a little bit behind in my blogging.  I am pregnant and have a two year old, need I say more.  We have already had a fun filled summer.  Including Caelyn's birthday, a trip to Orlando, and our many adventures around the house.  Here is a picture to keep you happy until I can post the rest.

Helping Daddy Assemble Her "Big Girl Bed"

Big Girl Room

With Jackson arriving in September, we wanted to Caelyn used to sleeping in her "Big Girl Bed" in her "Big Girl Room."  We sent Caelyn to Meme and Papa's for the weekend so we could make the big switch without her being there to through too much of a fuss.  Caelyn isn't a big fan of change, so we hoped a fun filled weekend with grandparents would help smooth it out.  We painted and put the bed together the week before, but we still had to switch all of Caelyn's clothes, toys, and some of her furniture from her old room to her new room.

Phil and I were at Tim & Angela's wedding when Caelyn came home, so we missed the big reveal.  However, my mom sent me a text message to tell me everything had gone smoothly so far and she loved her new room.  It took a couple days to adjust from the toddler bed to the full bed, but I think we are on track now.

Here are some pictures of Caelyn's "Big Girl Room."

We painted her walls Pale Apple by Valspar and she got a new headboard and footboard from Ikea.  I got a steal of a deal on the bedding from Pottery Barn, which made me oh-so-excited.

I updated the letters from her nursery to make them more fun and to match the colors of her bedding.

Inexpensive plain white curtains from Target with cute coordinating ribbon ironed on with Stitch Witchery, easiest project ever!

It is still a work in progress however, I need to paint this chair.  However, I am waiting to ask Phil until he is done with Jackson's room :)

Hopefully I will have pictures of Jackson's room near the end of the week.  It is almost done, but just a few finishing touches.
