The cupcakes were DELICIOUS and I LUV the cupcake stand Neal made for us!! :) We're gonna use it in her room and for her 1st bday party!!

33 weeks!

Holy cow.. I cant believe I only have 7 wks to go before my due date!!! Its sooo crazy how time has flown by. I absolutely cannot wait for Dakota to get here.. I cant wait to hold her in my arms and kiss her little cheeks... but I know that I'm also going to miss her moving around in my belly. She is rolling around like a little gymnast as I type now! I LOVE that feeling and LOVE to sit at night and watch my belly roll around. Its honestly one of mine and Chadd's favorite things to do!! And everytime she is moving around like crazy... I tell Chadd and he rushes over to feel. She likes to play games w/ her Daddy... its kinda funny! She'll be kicking and moving around like crazy and as soon as he puts his hand on my belly, she'll stop. Then he'll take his hand off, and she'll move around again. He likes to try and fake her out too.. I cant til she's here and I get to see Daddy and Dakota play together!! Chadd is going to be such an amazing father!!

So, alot has been going on since I've posted last.. we have been working on the nursery like crazy and had a muralist come in to paint on one of the walls.. someone my Mom knows and does an AMAZING job!! Here's some pics of the room.. the painting was finished this past Tues, but I haven't made it back upstairs to take some more pics of it.

We are SOOOOOOOO in love w/ her room!!!! It is exactly how I pictured it to be!!



We still have a lot to do.. I'm getting a wall decal to go on the other side of the room and still need to get some things set up on the shelves, etc. I'll definately get some more pics posted as soon as its more done :)
