Baby Benzel's Nursery























My folks came over for the weekend to help us get the nursery ready for baby Benzel's arrival in August. They are expert painters and love a good DIY project. Friday night we hit up Home Depot to pick out paint colors. Three colors later we were heading home to get started. Friday they painted the ceiling and got started on prep work for the walls. Saturday they painted all day and then we put all the furniture together. Sunday we took care of some final touches and then finally put the room together.
A HUGE thank you to my folks for coming over and working away the entire time they were here. We couldn't have done it without them.

I'm Back!







I spent all last week in Arizona for a big event we had in Tucson. It was a fun but long week, 24 weeks pregnant and 16 hour days are tough. Todd picked me up at the airport on Saturday and was a little surprised how much my belly had grown in the week that I was gone. He said something like "Well you can really tell your pregnant now!" I had my six month check at the doctor yesterday, where did the last 6 months go? I can't believe I am getting close to being in the third trimester already. We also had childbirth class last night and we got to see the new labor and delivery section of the hospital. Its really starting to sink in that in a little over THREE months our little lady will be here. We are beyond excited!

This weekend my folks are heading over to help us get the babies room ready. Stay tuned for some before and after shots that I will post when we are finished.
My apologies for the quality of my photos, they are from my phone. We just located our camera so hopefully the pics will be improving. My photographer thinks these little photo sessions are for the birds.
