Mini house tour!

I"ve been meaning to post a few pics of the new hardwood floors and now that our new Windy Peak office is almost finished I figured I would snap that and the rest of the downstairs too. 

I loooove the floors. It made our house feel so open and flow together so much better. My dad, Austin and I did it all ourselves. It wasn't hard really, just super time consuming and labor intensive. 

 We got a new sectional and rug in the den so here are the photos of the new den:

We moved all of our dining room furniture (which I loved so much, but I know I will have it again one day) to my Dad's house so now we have space to work. This was desperately needed. It's coming together well. We are about to order a huge 30x40 canvas wrap of Molly to go over the desk. 

New lamps in the foyer:

And the kitchen and breakfast area. No new changes here, just the floors. This is pretty much the whole downstairs of our house, minus the hallway and powder room. 

I finally feel like my house is coming back together after almost 2 months of crazy! Although because the nursery is still a work in progress the garage still looks like a work shop. I will post pictures of the new upstairs rooms as soon as they are finished! 

27 weeks...third trimester!

How far along: 27 weeks! greeting the third trimester with open arms! 

Size of baby: A rutabaga..what in the world is that?

Total weight gain/loss: Don't really know, I'll find out at the doctor next week. 

Maternity clothes: Yessss

Gender: Sweet baby boy! James Austin Green!

Movement: I feel like I am writing these surveys all the time now. They really sneak up on me and I don't much new to say. But yea, little guy is still moving a lot. Austin says he feels him in the middle of the night when we are asleep and I think thats so sweet! 

Sleep: Sleeping well still, thank you babyyyyy.  

What I miss: I really don't miss anything. I love being pregnant and I know I'm really going to miss it once it's over. I do miss being able to bend over easily. 

Cravings: Nothing new really, still crazy over some orange juice! 

Best moment this past week: Austin's birthday was last week and we had a lot of fun. Monday we went to dinner and Tuesday we cooked dinner, I made a rum cake and he opened some presents. Good times! 

Symptoms: My back has started to hurt randomly. It's not awful but I definitely have more back pain than normal. My feet are still swelling sometimes, especially when we go for long walks and I get real hot. I just asked Austin "what would you say my pregnancy symptoms are?" his answer: "forgetfulness and clumsiness". Great! 

What I'm looking forward to: Painting the nursery next weekend. The crown moulding and board and batten is just about finished so all we have left is to paint. Then we can put the crib together, hang the drapes, and make some real progress! 

Milestones: His eyes are open! And his brain shows brain activity now and will keep getting more complex.

Mood: happy girl!  

Labor Signs: sometimes my belly gets super tight and my doctor said thats a contraction. cool! they are aren't regular or anything but she says it's my body getting ready for labor. neattttt. 

Wedding rings on or off: on

Chalk board is back in action!! 

20, 24 and 27 weeks. Sometimes I don't feel like my belly is any bigger, then I look at these and ohhhhh. 

A little nursery decor :)

Can't get enough of this one!

So excited for baby showers!!

Aus' little birthday party from Molly and me :)

Babymoon in Savannah!

Savannah was super fun! We spent a nice relaxing 4 days and we didn't want to leave. We stayed at the cutest little bed and breakfast - The Dresser Palmer House. This was our first time staying at a B&B and we loved it! It was so personal and cute and I loved all the history and character. We had all the privacy we wanted but still had intimate breakfasts with lots of personal touches. There was an "honor bar" that stayed open all night and Aus loved that. I loved the different homemade breakfasts each morning and the wine and cheese parties at night, minus the wine.  Anyone staying in Savannah I would definitely recommend it! 

We spent our days walking around, shopping, hanging by the river and EATING! ha. We did some eating! I think my favorite restaurant was The Olde Pink House, where we both had crab stuffed grouper...amazing! 

We also loved the Savannah Honey store! We went in several times and brought home honey and a big piece of honey comb. Sooooo good! 

Sitting on the Forrest Gump bench! 

Had to get our crab leg fix!!

One day we took a little ride over to Tybee Island to walk on the beach and walk around the city. Always love seeing the ocean! We hung out on the pier for a while and just chilled, the weather was awesome! 

Aus had to get his night time bridge shots. He is such an amazing photographer! 

And we took a few maternity photos out at the Wormsloe Plantation...you might recognize it from a Forrest Gump scene! Run Forrest, Run! :)

 I will post the maternity pics soon! 

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend!

26 weeks

How far along: 26 weeks!

Total weight gain/loss: Lets go with 22 lbs...or more considering we just ate our hearts out in Savannah for 4 days straight! ekk

Maternity clothes: Yessss

Gender: Sweet baby boy! James Austin Green!

Movement: Lots of movement and we are able to watch him move and I think I can feel his feet sometimes. It's so crazy/cool and I still can't get over that there is a real life baby inside me. What a miracle.     

Sleep: Sleeping well still. 

What I miss: Not much really...feeling a little uncomfortable sometimes and missing alcohol...especially while vacationing! 

Cravings: Pickles, cucumbers, OJ and yogurt, can't get enough. 

Best moment this past week: Our babymoon of course! We had soooo much fun and it was so nice to relax and do a whole lot of nothing for 4 days. I'm going to blog about it ASAP! 

Symptoms: My hand still goes numb, swelling in my feet and hands, especially the left side, odd.

From a few days this week...

25 Weeks!

How far along: 25 weeks and approaching the 3rd trimester! The weeks are flying by it seems.

Size of baby: A head of cauliflower  

Total weight gain/loss: probably getting close to 20 lbs

Maternity clothes: Definitely but I do wear the occasional non maternity top or stretch pants, especially around the house. My regular tee shirts are quite amusing.

Gender: Sweet baby boy! James Austin Green!

Movement: All the time and it's great. He is moving all the time and I'm beginning to wonder if this kid ever sleeps. Ohhhh no.   

Sleep: Sleep is still awesome. Thank you God for that! But I do have some craaaaazy dreams, some dreams I wish I would NOT dream about.

What I miss: Nothing really. I do miss the ease of bending over to pick something up off the ground. It just kind of hurts now. And I'm start to feel large and uncomfortable. Ahhhhhh and we still have so long to go!

Cravings: Chick-fil-A's new chocolate chip cookies. OMG. I should have never been introduced to those. They are seriously the most perfect chocolate chip cookie ever made AND they come warm. Please go have one and tell me about it. I am 100% obsessed!!

Best moment this past week: Working on the nursery a bit more and finding furniture for our new office. We legit have a project going on in every single room of our house except our master bedroom. Lord help me! We are totally out growing this house way faster than I thought...I sure hope we can make it another 3-4 years like we planned.

Symptoms: No new symptoms really, just this thing called weight gain. Awesome. And my ankles are definitely swollen after I work all day. And my hands some days too.  

What I'm looking forward to: Leaving for our Babymoon this Thursday! We will be spending 4 nights in Savannah and I can. not. wait for some serious R&R with Aus!

Milestones: He has a sense of an equilibrium now and knows which way is up and which is down. He is also growing more hair and fat and if we could see it we could tell the color of his hair. Neat!

Mood: happy and getting sooo excited to meet our baby

 

Labor Signs: negative

Wedding rings on or off: on
