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! 

December in pictures....

December flew by, mainly because Kevin and I were too busy enjoying every moment. 

Christmas was wonderful even though my mom was sick. I was able to help my dad pull of Christmas with help from our family. Christmas Eve I celebrated week 22 of pregnancy. It feels like it's starting to fly by. 

We went Christmas light looking with the family in Highland Park and Addison with a stop at sprinkles for cupcakes. 

We went to Ice at the Gaylord Texan. Totally worth the money and oh so cold. 

We made Gingerbread houses, Christmas cookies and candy. And gave it away before I could eat it all. 

We enjoyed our Christmas decorations by the fire in our house. We didn't put them all up this year, but we did get some up. 

And we've enjoyed our babymoon at Beavers Bend in Broken Bow Oklahoma. Another amazing cabin by Hidden Hills. Mystic Mount was more gorgeous than any picture we could take. So blessed to spend this time together. And can't wait to bring Miss Nellie Mae back with us. 

Praying for a blessed 2015 and thankful for answered prayers in 2014. 

Gender Reveal......

After keeping the gender a secret for what seemed like a forever {3 days}, we finally were able to announce it to our family and friends this weekend. 

Ou gender reveal party in pictures.....

We are beyond excited to welcome this sweet baby girl into the world in April. We can't wait to love on her and spoil her rotten. She is a gift from God and such a blessing already. 

It was so fun having all of our family and friends there. I didn't take many pics but here is one of Kevin, his dad and brother. 

My next big appointment is my 20 week appointment the first part of December. We love seeing our sweet girl on sonograms. I'm hopig my energy continues to increase and the nausea continues to decrease. Then I maybe can blog a little more. 

Thank you for reading and keeping us in your prayers. We are so blessed and I can't wait to share sweet baby Hales name soon!
