OUR WEEKEND IN PICTURES
It was definitely a beach weekend here. We had a very hot few days reaching into the low 100's, but that didn't seem to affect our fun sandy trip to the ocean.
We've been reading the book Olivia a lot lately and Kensi has learned that we have to be careful when we go to the beach because of the dangers of the water and rough rip currents. Whenever we get to the page where Olivia goes to the beach on sunny days, Kensi now says in a chilling voice, "Oh! Dangerous."
This was the first time she had a real interest in 'building' a sandcastle. More like Mama making a tower of sand and Kensi smooshing it. She thought it was the coolest thing.
We spent the rest of the weekend making making final changes to our fireplace project we're starting next week. I'm so glad Mike enjoys calculating measurements and dimensions it just gives me a huge headache!
Oh and this totally happened over the weekend....
Yep, our first PSL of the year. I'm not sure if it's 'officially out', but the barista totally made one for us. We know, it's early....and yes we are addicts.
XOXO

25 WEEKS
How Far Along: 25 weeks
Weight Gained: 12 lbs
Nausea: None
How Am I Feeling: Tired and achy
Maternity Clothes: I’m wearing a mix of clothes; some maternity and some regular
Sleep: What’s sleep? This past week has not been good. I cannot get comfortable at night and I’m waking up with back aches. Walking was a huge help, but since it’s so hot and humid I don’t even want to be outside. I’m still doing yoga, but if I’m being honest....I really need to do more.
Cravings: Fruit, spicy foods, fruit, spicy foods....more fruit.
Food Adversions: Pork
Movement: Yes! I've been feeling more and more movements throughout the day.
Belly Button In or Out: Out! It popped immediately around 8 weeks.
Gender: Unknown.
Names: We’ve started to narrow it down to some names. A few have really stuck out to us, but we’re still not sharing!
What I'm Looking Forward To: This next weekend Mike’s parents are visiting and we’re starting our faux fireplace...YAY! Oh and of course the Pumpkin Spice Latte....it’s a HUGE must for Labor Day.
What's Different With This Pregnancy: This baby is not as much as a stretcher as Kensi was, this baby loves to curl into a little ball and just snuggle.
What I'm Missing: Still missing deli meat, caffeinated coffee & wine.
How Are We Preparing: After Mike’s parents visit we’ll dive into working on things for the new babe.

TALK ABOUT M.I.A
Posts have become few and far between lately mostly because of just being busy and working on different projects. We're currently planning out demensions for a faux fireplace. I'm already stressing out about this project because it's a big one and I desperately want it done for all the fall and winter holidays, but I'm so nervous to do this! So far we have everything taped out on the wall and now need to purchase our materials. I don't like posting projects mid-way because sometimes it takes quite a bit of time to get the entire thing done, but I am hoping and praying {hard} this will be quick and painless!
Of course a mess always comes with a project and that's the part I HATE the most. Kensi doesn't seem to mind though, she just adds to it. If I had shifted the camera to the right of my feet you would see a glorious amount of crayons and stickers on the couch and floor. Somehow I believe she thinks she's 'helping' even when she's not measuring the wall.
In the last couple weeks we also had a neighbor come over and split our one flush mount light in our now dining room into two large pendants. It has made a huge difference! Just ignore our lovely mess of a corner on that book shelf :)
So that's what's been going on at our house, messes and projects. The end products will be worth it, at least I hope!
