Life Lately

Summer has got me all lazy! I planned on blogging at LEAST once a week and seem to be failing at that. I'll try to be better! Ha!

Coffee ha that's about all I can manage:
You laugh but that really has been my day a few times these past weeks! I get up, eat breakfast and go back to bed. Growing a human is very tiring apparently. (And don't worry, I'm only drinking one cup of half caff coffee....) I tried to cut out coffee but the headaches were not worth it. 

My honey came home with this awesome body pillow the other day. He knows that I've been tossing and turning all night long, trying to get comfortable. #gamechanger Seriously. This pillow has made getting great sleep so much easier! Now if only my bladder would get on board with not waking me up three times a night! Ha! I'm lucky to have this guy, he totally speaks my love language. 


Thanks for all your feedback about places to shop for Maternity clothes! I ventured to Destination Maternity in Southpark and hit the jackpot. 5 tops, 1 dress and some undergarments all for $100! They were cute to boot! I also ordered some cute things from Gap. Looking forward to getting these cute items in the mail!

I've had so much fun working at The Red Barn Marketplace this summer. It has been the perfect part time job for me. Yesterday I got to practice my lettering by making little signs. The long black sticks will be cut down to make little individual signs with those words. All their stuff is so cute and it's all 20% off until August 20th! If you haven't ever been, you need to check them out! 
 
 

 Check out these beautiful old mantels that arrived at the store yesterday! The detail work just blew me away. If I was building a new house, I'd definitely snag one of these (a'la Joanna Gaines) and use it as my mantel for my fireplace! 

Speaking of good finds....I've been eyeing this table in the store all summer long. I've been dying to replace my old rectangle table in my kitchen with a pretty round one. The kitchen nook area is really small and I feel like the rectangle table is just not the right shape and makes movement around that area a little tricky. So I decided to buy it yesterday. I cannot wait to set it up in the kitchen.

And some pinterest inspiration! I just need to decide now if I want to keep my black farmhouse style chairs or not. I'll have to post a pic of the table when it's in the house and set up.

I got my class list this week and letters have been sent out. I've been getting busy writing names on nametags, deskplates...if you think of something to be labeled, it gets labeled. Look at the darling printable labels that I found to make for our different folders and journals. I love the clip art! It's getting close to school starting- about two weeks left! I'm excited and nervous as usual. 


I've already started to pray for my class. It's important for me to do that each summer. I believe that God has always blessed me with the perfect class for me and I'm so thankful for that. Each of those precious faces deserve God's grace and blessing and I have to remember that I'm supposed to be a living example of him each day. I pray that I can be a light for Christ and that others may know him through me.

Last thing...we find out if our sweet baby is a boy or a girl next week! I cannot wait. This has been the longest 4 weeks between appointments ever! What do you think we're having?
