We are counting down the days y'all!!! Every day I wake up and I am like, "Will this be the day???" I have got to stop! lol I haven't been feeling well at all and that has made this last leg of pregnancy so hard. I have been in pain for the past two and a half weeks with my back and hips feeling a dull muscle ache. When Rocco moves around it intensifies these pains. . .he moves A LOT! Two nights ago I didn't sleep well because he decided to have a dance party! It was so painful. That next morning I scheduled an appointment with my chiropractor and let me tell you! She worked some serious magic!! I feel SO incredible and have decided to walk around like a granny trying to keep this adjustment in place. lol This Thursday will be my 39 week check up and we will also have another ultrasound done to determine just how much this baby boy is weighing in at. At my last ultrasound, my tech told me he was on track to weigh around ten pounds at birth. Eek! He has consistently measured two weeks ahead at every check up. Praying things will progress in God's time, I will gain some patience and this baby boy will be healthy!
Also, I am bored! I keep getting caught up with house chores and then the boredom starts to set in. Plus, with no weddings or engagement sessions currently on my schedule, work has basically come to a halt. Which was the plan so I can focus on my family and try to relax while we wait on our baby boy to arrive. However, my brain hasn't caught on to this idea yet! My brain is re-branding my photography business, checking out ideas for new website designs and layouts and I am taking an online photography class that is geared towards business. I just can't stop!!! lol I love my photography business and the amazing clients I get to meet. I love that it allows me to be creative and I have SO much fun with my clients during our sessions. Seeing my clients in front of my camera during an engagement session, giggling and loving on each other AND already getting excited about their wedding day photography. . .it keeps me going and keeps me passionate!
So, for now I am trying really hard to stay positive and think happy thoughts. I saw these gorgeous pink peonies at the grocery store and thought they would help brighten my day. Which they do every time I see them! :) They are my faves. I love how fragrant and beautiful they are. They made the perfect prop for my milk bath maternity session too! I had Trey behind my camera rocking out his skills. Thank you for taking these for me babe.
Before we knew Rocco’s gender, I purchased these cute stuffed animal heads. I wasn’t quite sure how we were going to place them in his room. Trey came up with the idea of taking pallet wood and cutting it down into these little plaques. Perfection!
Check out that light fixture! Originally, we installed Edison bulbs and they looked beautiful. However, the hue they cast in the room was just TOO orange for our liking. 
Trey got super creative and built lots of cool pipe shelves and he even made the curtain rod.
Look at all those clothes AND diapers! Woohoo! His drawers are even full of clothes, blankets, sweet little swaddles and SO much more!
Look at all these cuties!
RyAnne wanted to play some games at her party. I found a couple of Minute to Win it games that I THOUGHT would be a good idea. lol This is the Fruit by the Foot game. The object was to see who could eat the most without using their hands. lol Well, I forgot to mention they couldn't touch it. . .so they all ended up cramming the ENTIRE Fruit Roll Up in their mouths. Eww.
This is when I realized just how bad of an idea this game was. lol Everyone's faces! I was scared to death they were gonna choke. Everyone was safe!
The next game was called Cookie Face. The object of this game is to place a cookie on your cheek and without touching the cookie move it to your mouth. It was SO funny to watch them. I tried to show them how to move their faces to make the cookie slide down to their mouth. hahaha! They gave me the oddest looks. They all decided to just try and use their tongues instead.
Once we finished up with ALL that sugar. . .why not eat cake! Haha!
I know y'all have heard about the Color Run 5K. Trey and I found the packets of chalk they use during that event and let the kids go crazy with it in the yard!
I hope everyone had a fabulous day with us! We sure did!
