the letter P...

is for sweet baby Preston! In just five short weeks, I will have a sweet new nephew to love on!  This weekend myself and the mommy-to-be did a few nersury updates :)

I love his nursery!  We hand made his wall art and the cute little "P" plaque :)

love love love.

Sarah got and amazing new camera, so we spent alot of time playing around with it!  I am so jealous! ha!  Here are some great photos we got of Sarah and Preston.

Maxi thought he needed to be in every  picture!

And if Maxi wasn't trying to get int the photos, Ava was!

Oh swee babe, we can't wait to meet you!!

weekend recap {part three}...

Before we headed home on Sunday, Sarah treated Brittany & I to pedicures as our thank you for hosting the baby shower :). Miss Ava tagged along, and I planned on letting her get her toes painted. When we got to the salon Sarah noticed they had a little kids pedi chair!! I immediately signed Ava up for her very first pedicure!



Can you see how excited she was?!?!




She was totally cheesin' :)


We picked out our colors --corral for me & green for Ava-- and settled in!







I tried with no sucess to get Ava to choose anything besides the awful green, but she insisted --she wanted green for 'St. Patrick's Day'-- so they added white polkadots!



Adorable!!

It was seriously so much fun! I can't wait to go with her again :-)

------------------------------

I'm so sorry for the lack of posts and commenting on all of you fabulous blogs! I have been crazy busy at work, and currently have 119 blogs to read in my google reader. I promise I will make my rounds just as soon as I come up for air :). I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, and that you have a fabulous week!

weekend recap {part one}...

After a crazy-almost-rediculous week, we had a fabulous weekend!

On Friday night Justin & I took in a Dallas Stars game that I was invited to for work. The suite was nice, but this girl is definately NOT a hockey girl. At the end of the second period we used the 'need to get the kiddo' and headed home :)

I was up and at'em early (( we're talking 5:45a.m. )) Saturday morning to get ready for Sarah's baby shower. I worked late every night last week & even took a day trip to Atlanta, so I still needed to get an outfit forboth Ava & I to wear to the shower ((I'm one of those girlse who insists on getting something new for special events!)) along with some last minute shower items ((luckily I had went the previous weekend to get baby P's gifts!)). I got a super cute denim dress, and Priss got a new dress too--






((she was so excited to get to wear her sneaks with it!))




Miss Brittany did a great job with the menu.













Sarah and I got busy on the decor. We hung some of Preston's clothes and pics of both Brad & Sarah as babies. Sweet and simple :)





His sweet cake





Got it's inspiration from Baby P's too-cute-for-words nersury!

Weekend recap...

I can't believe it's already time for another weekend recap! Last week flew by, as did the weekend!

----------------------------------------

Friday night was extremely uneventful. I worked late, so by the time I got home J&A had already eaten. I settled for some breadsticks ((if you haven't had them yet, go get the pillsbury breadsticks---you will NOT be sorry---especially if you coat them in butter right after you pull them out of the oven:) ))

-----------------------------------

On Saturday I spent the majority of the morning cleaning house and getting our laundry caught up. After lunch Ava & I headed to Babies R Us to shop for baby Preston's shower next weekend. I totally forgot how overwhelming baby shopping is! Ha! We navigated our way through the store and came out with some goodies:). I also had shirts made for Ava & Preston made that I am SUPER excited about! Fingers crossed I get them before the shower---I will post pics when they arrive.

Saturday night we headed down to our favorite Emerson's and had dinner at Chilli's and just hung out :)
-----------------------------

Today was pretty relaxing;) I made it through target twice today---once with Sarah, once solo---and didn't buy anything "extra" ((but I can tell you I did scout out future purchases---I am loving the all the cute dresses they have in right now!!)). We also had lunch with S&B at Fridays. It was delish!! Here are some pics:-)


Love these two girls and my sweet nephew-to-be.




Sarah is the kind of preggo you love to hate---seriously, how fab does she look?!?





Ava also did some posing for the camera...






I love her funky, confident, quirky, adorable little self!

I hope you had a great weekend!!!

Nerves...

They usually get the best of me. I spent much of last night tossing and turning---my mind was going a million times a minute. Some big things are happening at work---and it's got me in a sort of nervous, excited panic. These things have come at me fast and completely blindsided me. It could mean a very good thing--it's the not knowing all the details that is driving me crazy! And I am hoping they have it figured out by the end of the day so that I have the weekend to weigh all my options.

So sorry for the rambling and being so vague. As soon as I have more information, you know I'll be back to share!
