Life Lately



Life lately has been Baby Showers and Mother's Day celebrations, lounging by the pool on the weekends, and lots and lots of naps :) I have reached the point in my pregnancy where I am TIRED. ALL. THE.TIME. I guess its God's way of preparing me for many sleepless nights and days...Ill take the naps while I can though!!!!



Swollen and 8 Months pregnant!!! 




Feeling more than large at work


Someone sent my baby this beautiful little picture..with no name or card?? I love it so much!!!!!


Walked into his room this morning drinking my coffee and felt  just beyond grateful that I get to bring a tiny new life home to love on. 


We celebrated Mother's day at the Ranch!!! 


I cooked my mom a Mothers Day supper which included; Steamed Artichokes with a lemon garlic butter sauce, Mahi Mahi, and a yummy pasta! 



Shopping at Target 


Riding around the Ranch.. this never gets old. I cannot wait to watch my son romp around these beautiful grounds!


Bliss.


We have chickens now too!! So fresh eggs for everyone!!!!






A dear special teacher friend of mine handmade this quilt for baby Jax..how special!



And our maternity session!!!!

My Conroe Shower, and Baby Jax's Nursery!!!!!




I had SO MUCH FUN last weekend at my shower... I truly felt so special and loved. The shower was given by Jax's Aunt, Grammie, and Cousin Riplee..and they truly did a beautiful job!!! Here are some pictures from our fun weekend!!!! 


Friday afternoon ready to hit the road!


Arrived at our Lake Condo...dressed and ready for a girls dinner on the lake with my mom... look at that bump!!!


my MOCKtail... 


Mom!


I love the hills but sometimes I miss the lake!!!! It looked so pretty!


WOHOO!! As I walked into the shower I was greeted with this gorgeous display of food!


& Baby Jax cookies...In love!!!


Banner Aunt Becky made him... she is so talented!


Jax M&Ms...so detailed!


My Nana and me!!! ALL boys on the keeshan side of the family...Jax will be the second great grandson!!! ( Making me still the only girl on the whole side of the family :))!


Honey and me!


All my girlfriends.. there is one missing but I know she was watching from heaven. 


Spent many years with these amazing girls!!! 



YUM!


The thank you take home M&Ms..personalized with JAX!



One of my gifts.... holy CUTE!!!! This southern Mama loves a monogram!


of course Uncle Brant got this for Jax's Golfin' dad!


Tuesday after the shower we had our 3d ultrasound!! It truly was such a cool experience. Jax did not cooperate with us very well so we only got a few shots which allows us to go back one more time to see him!! YAY!


I found this at my FAVORITE baby shop in San Antonio..Nursery couture. It is so beautiful!


Fit perfectly in his room!!! Here are some Nursery Pictures! Finally!

I wanted to go with a rustic theme but am NOT into camp or anything super dark so I chose the color Colonade Grey by BEHR for the walls.. and then just sought after something Boy...which to me ended up being Navy. We ordered his furniture from Pottery Barn and I am so in love with it! It turns out that the PB cribs are 4 in 1 so he will be able to use it for many years to come!!!! Most of the art i had custom made from a store here in SA called CRIB and KIDS. They do beautiful monogram work for kids and that is where his little moose came from. I just love how it turned out!

Oh hey belly!


When you walk in the room.. 


I did not want to use a changing table so I am just going to use this dresser with a simple changer until he is done with that. It was too small of a space to try and jam pack a changing table.. so hopefully this will work!!! The custom prints are from the cutest shop on Etsy -Wildland designs. Bear.Moose.Duck. 


Side view


His rug was from the PB outlet! Score!! I went with the Harper bedding and Valence!




A shot of his little chair. 


coming home outfit!! So cute!


His closet!!! I know I'm crazy!! 


Mama and her almost 8 month bump! 


The end!

Seriously I have been such a slacker when it has come to cooking.. Im hoping my creativity will pick back up once the baby is here.. eventually.. but for now my dad spoils me with his cooking. Steak and Lobster night!





A random Monday Morning... 



Bumpie!!! I have had so much fun dressing the bump this pregnancy!!! My favorite stores have been



Seriously ...such cute stuff!!! Also very transitional for after you have the baby and your tummy is still super pouchy..I loved all of their clothes!


Got a little crafty and painted the outdoor furniture. 


Ordered my new monogram hat from my favorite Etsy store!! #itzybitzytripzy


Had brunch with Brandon at our new favorite hole in the wall. Behind our neighborhood is a cute rustic ( think fredricksburg or canton) street with TONS of shops and little restaurants on it. I literally have no idea how I haven't discovered it but they have a TO DIE for restaurant called grumpys...and this my friends was what I ate. 



We got our maternity pictures back!!! I love this one!!!!


Enjoyed my favorite craving. FROYO.
