We have officially moved Maddyn to her big girl room. She's moved into the front guest room, and out of the nursery. We (knock on wood) had a very smooth transition, and she is in love with her big girl room. Since I was still not 100% mom helped us paint the room- and I was creative again this time. AKA- that means more work for everyone. We still have to do some smaller finishing touches like shelves, knick knacks and letters, but I posted a few teaser photos below!
We will decide what colors to keep in the nursery once we know boy/girl for baby #2. Speaking of, we find out Tuesday morning. So stay tuned!!!
Aside from that Maddyn has had a rough few weeks. She was diagnosed with the startings of pneumonia and has had a tough few weeks with her cough. We're ready for her to be healthy again!
I am doing a little better. They put me on a steroid which seems to be helping better than the other meds were. I'm still on all of the meds though. I'm now 20 weeks and down to about 5 good days a week and 2 terrible ones. It makes it easier to tolerate, since I have 5 days to pick myself up- but I'll be ready to be 100% again. The doctor also has me in prenatal aquatics and yoga to help me get my strength back slowly. I have been so weak, it's been tough.
Work has been insanely busy, and I've been doing lots of 10+ hour days. That's making me terribly exhausted, which isn't really helping. I'm hoping that it will get a little more normal in the next few weeks. It's really taking it's toll.
I was able to head up for a quick trip to see Megan & Em this week. It was great to have the 3 pregnant best friends together- even if only for a short trip. It will be nice to have all of our kids the same age again!!!
Amy got engaged a few weeks ago, so that's also some new news in the family. They are in the beginning stages of planning, but lots of fun wedding planning ahead. Maddyn is excited for Todd to become Uncle Toddy officially!
Other than that, Dave's been super busy at work and we have been trying to maintain some level of normalcy around here. Once we have the gender and things start to get tamer, I'll be loading some videos and pictures on the two sites soon! Maddyn's been full of funnies that i can't wait to post.
Until then, her big girl room:
