The months are flying by...,

It's hard to believe I'm almost 7 months pregnant with Nellie Mae. It seems like yesterday we were waiting for our embryo transfer and seeing our baby through a microscope. Not many parents can say they saw their baby 5 days after conception. But we did. We saw both embryos move around and one of those is my sweet Nellie. 



We haven't been up to much lately. Just getting ready for this sweet girls arrival. We cleaned out our middle room this weekend for a temporary room for Nellie while our house is in progress. 


Kevin made a N nightlight and I love it. 

Her real furniture, bedding and room decor live at my parents for the time being. I love her deer we found her in Canton. 


And I love the saying on the sign we bought her. It has a little more meaning to me than I thought I'd ever share. While going through ivf this last round I wasn't a Google crazy lady this time. I was an Instagram #ivf crazy lady. But out of this obsession I found lots of inspiration. And this was one of the sayings I loved the most. 

While I was on bedrest after ivf and started to lose hope I said this saying to myself over and over. I also said "faith of a mustard seed" and prayed my little seed stuck. And she did. So when we saw this in Canton I had to have it for her nursery. 

Other than picking out bedding and cleaning out rooms. This weekend we rested. Kevin finished 5 days of chemo and I was just tired from working all week. We watched movies and did laundry, so exciting. 

Kevin bought me a treat while we were in Dallas picking up her bedding. 

Nellie and I loved our sprinkles cupcakes. I've tried to avoid the sweets as much as possible, but it's hard to say no to sprinkles. 

Only a couple more weeks till my best friend gets married. I will be the most pregnant bridesmaid there ever was but I can't wait to stand with her on her big day. 

And it's only 12 more weeks till Nellie gets here. I can't wait to hold this baby girl. Kevin and I argue who will get to hold her the most. Can't wait!
