Okay so really you know your a mom when you fall in love with the perfect stroller! While I was pregnant with Evie we registered for lots of things. A stroller is a must have. So I wanted a multi-purpose stroller. You need to think of these things before you get a stroller so you don't end up with 10 strollers. I knew I wanted 2. A larger one for walking/jogging and then a small one to get around small area places like all my antique shops! :)<br />
<br />
Our stroller we registered for was from Target. My best girlfriends got us this. We were thrilled and we LOVE it. We've gotten so many compliments on it. This is what is awesome about it:<br />
<br />
1. It's affordable<br />
2. Great reviews<br />
3. Safe- locking wheels<br />
4. It has the infant car seat attachment<br />
5. You then can use it after the baby is out of the car seat<br />
6. The seat lays all the way down. Which is amazing especially if you need to do a diaper change. BOOYAH!<br />
7. Folds for storage<br />
8. Has a large basket underneath to hold items<br />
9. Easy to clean<br />
10. The color is neutral for Boys & Girls<br />
11. Only requires one hand to fold up. Which you don't really think about until you have a screaming child that you are holding in the other arm.<br />
12. It has a canopy for shade<br />

Here it is: We love this stroller. It really was a life saver when Evie was tiny tiny. I took this to all my dance camps with me!<br />
<br />
Okay the only bad things about this stroller is that it is rather large. It folds up great but takes up most of my trunk space in my jeep. The next one is that there was no place for keys, water bottle, or your wallet. So we had a to buy a little thing which was an additional $15. Yuck.<br />
<br />
On to our other new stroller. This stroller I am just thrilled about. I take Evie antiquing with me all the time and usually just put her in my moby wrap since the stroller above is soo large it just makes sense to not take it. Well now that Evie is older we wanted to invest in a tiny little stroller as well to take with us places. My sister in law suggested an umbrella stroller. So I did my research. I refused to pay tons of money. I was convinced I could find a great one for a great price. I searched Amazon and found this puppy.<br />

I am pretty much in love with this stroller. I love the color. It does come in bright colors but I wanted to go with neutral so gray it was. This was easy to assemble just put the wheels on. It has a basket underneath, it has a canopy up top, it comes with 4 compartment that you can sit your drinks in, it has a zipper compartment and 4 small mesh pockets, adjustable straps for Evie, easy to fold, weighs 11lbs, AND AND AND AND The price was unbelievable for all of these things. It was on sale at Amazon for $36.00. Oh yeah and the grand total with shipping was $40.00. I say I found a gem. We have already used it and we love it! Sooo all my mommy to be friends out there if you are in the market for a stroller with multi-purpose qualities check these out! They are must haves!!</div>

Just about everyday in the mail I got a package and sometimes I would have to beat my husband to the mailbox so he wouldn't see all the goodies I got for our daughter!! Now I'm really really thrifty about spending money & typically I make things instead to save money. However, I found this cute, adorable, trendy little Etsy shop that I instantly fell in love with. Sooooo I had to splurge! The shop is called Kakabaka. It first started off with a pair of black & white leg candy. Then it turned into a custom order for a Jayhawk onesie, then matching KU leg warmers, next chief leg warmers, with a matching bow, last I topped off my order with MORE leg warmers!! OH MY GOSH I had to stop there! Karen, the owner of the shop is the sweetest, most accommodating lady! I immediately fell in love with her business & enjoyed emailing her back & forth while we finalized my large order. Check out her Etsy shop you will drool over her work. Right now she has free shipping on some of her items!! Thank you Kakabaka for ALL Evie's adorable items & the extras!<br />

Crazy! Seems just like yesterday we were patiently waiting for this little chica to arrive. Wanted to share some of her pics with you all. I try not to be "that mom" that posts ONE million pictures of her child. But it's hard not gonna lie. So now that I'm back in the bloggy blogging world I will try to post her "professional portraits" here. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
A great friend of ours started her photography business right around when Evie was born. Which was great timing because the original photographer that was going to take pictures of Evie was literally having her baby too. Soo this worked out great. Here is Whitney's website. Take a look, we love her work! www.lifeyoulovephotography.com ! Thanks Whitney!</div>

I want to start off by saying adjusting to a newborn has really been the easiest thing! Nothing hard or challenging yet! I've been around kids my entire life so I really feel like I was BORN to be a mom. It really also helps that Brian and I always try to stay calm, confident, eager to learn about kids and most of all we stay positive! The hardest part yet has been two things 1. Deciding to go back to teaching or stay home (stay home it is-Evie needs her mom and I sure love to feel needed!) 2. Mom guilt- oh lovely mom guilt that will never and I repeat never GO AWAY as long as I live! All you moms know what I mean! Ugh! So that's the hardest adjustments so far. On to the fun. <br />
<br />
You know when your a mom when.....<br />
-You look at your new baby and just cry.<br />
-you want to cry when they are screaming their heads off because it hurts you to see them in pain or discomfort.<br />
-you cry every week they get older.<br />
-you are eyeing "someone" cause they are holding your baby wrong.<br />
-you wake up a sweaty mess and have to do an outfit change in the middle of the night. I'm not exaggerating but my hair was dripping wet the first couple weeks after having Evie (lovely hormones) <br />
-you know the difference between cries <br />
-you have spit up all over you and in your hair.<br />
-you have pee down your shirt after you give your baby a bath but you don't even care.<br />
-you have poop randomly on your body like your arm or leg? Still not sure how.<br />
-the sound of a breast pump puts you to sleep.<br />
-you make your child finish every bottle because you worked hard to get that milk. Breast milk is like GOLD! Lol<br />
-you now have to sleep with a sound machine to sleep. (how did I survive so many years without one?)<br />
-you forget to put a coffee filter in the coffee pot but still drink the coffee grinds and all!<br />
-random dirty diapers in your car due to all the lovely blowouts your child has in the car seat. (why does your child ONLY poop in the car seat?)<br />
-have managed to stay in your Jammie's until 2pm. Seriously WHERE DOES THE TIME GO?<br />
-takes about 3hours to leave the house.<br />
-you have to get ready in sections.<br />
-you have to shower early in the morning or it NEVER happens.<br />
-feel like a million bucks when you take a 30 second shower<br />
-you take back all the mean things you said about children sleeping in a bassinet in the parents room till they were 9months. (Evie is in her crib but it was sad to move her in there.)<br />
-find yourself swaying while looking in the fridge and you are NOT even holding your child.<br />
-you rock the grocery cart back and forth without your child even being in the cart. <br />
-your multitasking skills are at their all time high. For example, putting groceries away, talking on the phone, and cooking dinner, All while feeding Evie.<br />
-strategically park next to the shopping cart thing so it makes your life easier when loading groceries and the baby in the car. <br />
-when going to target by yourself feels like a mini vacation. <br />
-you go to get in the car to go out to eat as a family and your husband says, "You are going to need to go change you look like a mess. You have spit up and dog hair all over your shirt and pants. It's okay babe I will give you 10minutes this time to go put yourself together." I reply with , "Oh goodie 10minutes?" Hey I will take it because 10 minutes can go a long way these days! Ha<br />
-when you are at the grocery store and look at your sweet baby then say, "OMG WHAT IS THAT SMELL? OMG WHAT IS IN HER CAR SEAT?" Quickly you realize your child had the worst blow out you've ever seen. I mean it is just sitting in her Carseat like a soupy yellow mess! You then make a mad dash to the checkout line before anyone can stop you and comment at how cute your baby is and then ask you "OMG what is that soupy yellow stuff?" My fear was someone seeing this soupy yellow mess and thinking how awful of a parent I am for not changing my child's diaper! Ahhhh! All of this happened while Evie was smiling and giggling of course! Ha! <br />
<br />
That's it for now. More to come, I'm sure of that! :) Oh the joys of being a mom. I love how our life has changed. All of these things make me laugh! It really amazes me how much your view of life changes when your a mom. I don't know how many people said, "Someday when your a mom you will understand." I would always get offended by that but it's the truth. Something about being a parent changes you and you automatically relate SO much better to certain situations.The Shieldsy'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11851492404554027819noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1617643656944685111.post-72264286345536234472012-07-03T19:42:00.001-07:002012-08-13T10:56:35.978-07:00Evie Pearl ShieldsHey all! It's been 3 months since I've posted! Best 3 months of our lives! <br />
<br />
Here is our birth story of our newest addition! We went in to the hospital May 1st at 6:45. Brian and I went to a yummie dinner before we headed in. It was our last meal as a family of 2. It really is mind boggling how quick life changes, I mean really in the blink of an eye. At dinner we couldn't stop smiling thinking about what life was about to be like. Brian had a few celebration drinks with dinner and I was a little jealous. We then headed to the hospital and I started to be induced at 8pm. I already forgot the name of medicine they inserted. Hmmm mommy brain? I think so. Anyways I started feeling contractions right away. I didn't realize I had been having contractions already prior to coming to the hospital. Brian and I tried to get sleep that night but we didn't. I was used to not getting much sleep at this point. However Brian wasn't haha. He was really annoyed with all the machines that were hooked up to me. They kept going off and nurses would come in all night. My labor and contractions really started around 4am. At this point I was feeling great. At 7am the nurses came in and gave me breakfast which was just muffins and juice. I remember slapping Brian's hand because he wanted to eat part of the muffin. Ummm hello I need this muffin for energy to birth your child!! Contractions started to really get strong around 7am. I quickly realized I was having back labor on my lower left side! Holy smokes! So much more painful than regular labor! Yikes. I tried to shower and could barely stand up I was in so much pain. I originally wanted to labor in the tub but at this point in my pregnancy I developed this horrible rash from hormones and being pregnant for too long is what my doctor told me! Ha sweet! So any warm water made my rash spread and itch like crazy. So the tub option was out the window! At this point it is around 11am and I was progressing quite well I was a 5 and still having back labor. The doctor wanted to give me a little pitocin to keep labor going. I didn't want that stuff. But they assured me it was a tiny bit. Contractions were getting awful at this point. I will admit there was one time I yelled at Brian. He asked me how far apart my contractions were. I answered or you could say raised my voice and said I Bleeping don't know, why don't you bleeping count them since your just sitting there, I'm busy! Or something kinda like that. I'm sure Brian could tell you my exact wording! Ha! Right after that I wanted the meds! I didn't want to be like this the rest of the way. So meds it was! Ahhhhh what a huge difference! I could actually talk now and rest. I wanted to really enjoy this special time together and we sure did. As soon as they gave me the epidural I spiked a fever. I swear it's from the epidural because it literally happened within seconds of getting it. I got the chills so bad and couldn't stay warm. I had 10warm blankets on me and still was shaking. They were able to give me Tylenol for my fever and that got rid of it. At this point they were worried about the baby. Her heart rate increased. So they closely monitored her. Every hour they checked me and I was progressing great. It was around 3pm that I was almost dilated to a 10. Woohoo!!! This is when it got crazy! Oh yes everyone on the labor floor decided to go into labor at the same time! My nurse was off delivering another baby and wasn't able to be with us. Soooooooo I held off pushing for what seemed like eternity! Finally I looked at Brian and said either get a nurse or deliver this baby yourself! Brian was FULLY prepared to glove up and deliver this baby! Since he has had plenty of experience in this area being a firefighter/emt! Finally the charge nurse comes in! She literally is answering the phone as I am pushing! I will spare you all the crazy details. But I was just suppose to do practice pushes and that turned into Brian yelling "You better get the doctor in here". Shortly after my dr came in to check on me. She then threw her scrubs on like a mad woman and caught my baby! Ha! <br />
<br />
It was then they put sweet Evie on my chest. I was crying and laughing all at the same time. This was the moment I've been dreaming about since I was a little girl. Most little girls dream of being a princess or about being a pretty bride in a ridiculous white gaudy dress. But.... Growing up I dreamed about being a mom! All I ever wanted was an amazing husband and for us to have children! This was my dream come true! I kept laughing and crying I couldn't even speak, I was in shocked and madly in love with our daughter. This was it WE have a daughter! I love saying this and it will never get old. I am so proud! After awhile all I remember saying was, "oh my gosh she's perfect!" Over and over! How can it be that this beautiful little creature that we made came out into this world soooo perfect? The answer to that is God..... How can one birth a child and not believe in the Lord? It is a true miracle of God! Not only did Brian and I pray daily over this little girl but so many family and friends did as well. We are so blessed. God is good. God is powerful. God amazes me every day! <br />
<br />
Evie weighed in at 8.0 pounds and 20 inches. Not as big as I thought she would be for being SO late which I'm still a little bitter about! Okay I'm VERY bitter still! Lol! <br />
<br />
Most of you know that Evie caught whatever infection I had and she also had some fluid in her lungs. We had to stay at the hospital for over 10days. She was only in the nursery for 2days. I practically wouldn't leave her side. Call me crazy but I just didn't want to miss time with her! Brian was right there with us too! Then after those 2days Evie was able to come with us in our room! The power of prayer amazes us and she's a little fighter! I do believe the Lord gives you what you can handle and we certainly handled being in the hospital almost 2 weeks with ease! It didn't even phase us that we had to stay that long because we knew she was getting amazing attention from the doctors and nurses at OMC! We were able to come home the night before Mothers Day! Talk about the best gift in the world to be home as a family on such a special day! Truly a day I will never forget. <br />

I haven't posted in quite some time now. Due to being crazy busy, exhausted, trying to get things in order, projects, state assessments for school and so on. I've been swamped. This past month (month 9 and now month 10) have gone great. I definitely started getting exhausted right after our state assessments which was that first week of April. So week 38 and 39 were exhausting. I did work up until my due date April 20th. I could have kept working and could still be working now but it was better for me to have an end date. And with it being the end of the year I only had to take off the last 4 weeks, not bad! So week 40 and 41 the LONGEST weeks of my life! I realize with children you cannot plan. I have kind of wrapped my brain around all this, mostly. Most of you that know me know that I am a planner, I'm organized and I'm all about dates & times. Sooooo the entire pregnancy you've got this little date called your due date and everything and I mean EVERYTHING is center around that date. Although they tell you it's just a date and guess. BLAH. You think well the baby could come early so you want to plan and organize so you are ready for that. Then you really plan and get organized when the due date rolls around. Well let me tell you when that due date passes, WOAHZA! Poor Brian. I mean seriously, Poor Brian.<br />
Let me start off by saying this pregnancy has been easy, fast and I've felt extremely great the entire time! Not to mention I'm really a positive person and always look at the bright side of things! Well I've never been SO GRUMPY when that due date rolled around with NO baby or signs of labor. For a few reasons. I'm not miserable, I still feel GREAT!<br />
The first reason is that I was BORED out of my mind! I've cleaned everything, frozen meals, washed and did every piece of laundry imaginable, baked, redecorated the house, finished projects (except for the ones that require repainting) and so on! I've been going insane trying to find things to do. I am always on the go, so not working has KILLED ME. But it has been nice to not work because my poor elephant feet have finally gotten smaller and I've been able to see my ankle bone (woohoo). I didn't even know what to do with myself. I don't really watch that much TV, so I can't lounge on the couch too long. So I was dying to get out of the house, trying not to spend too much money, and trying to find things to do! So that's been the first challenge.<br />
The second challenge is "HAVE YOU HAD YOUR BABY YET?", "WHEN ARE YOU DUE?", "OH MY GOSH YOUR STILL PREGNANT?", "WOW YOU LOOK MISERABLE?", "ARE YOU SURE YOU AREN'T HAVING TWINS?", "WHEN ARE YOU HAVING THAT BABY", "LOOKS LIKE YOUR ABOUT TO HAVE A BABY?" (NO SHIT?) blah blah blah. I could go on and on. It doesn't hurt my feelings at all because i'm not really that sensitive. But just kills me and makes me laugh at some of the STUPID things people say to pregnant women. If I knew when I was going to have this baby I'd be GOD. I mean seriously! And it really surprises me that strangers say these things. I would never walk up to a random lady and say those things. Crazy!! I kept telling Brian that the next person that says "Wow looks like your going to have a baby." I was going to respond with "Oh yes I already had her a month ago." Just to make them feel awkward! ha! But I never did. Ironically no one else asked me after I was planning on saying that which is probably for the best!<br />
Third reason is people were being way to nice in the sense that "Ohhh hunnie it's okay you haven't had your baby you will have her when she's ready." Well shout out to my WORK FRIENDS (HOLLA) I told Brian, "Can't everyone be like my work friends and be on my side?" Meaning can't they just not sugar coat things and joke with me by saying "WOW that sucks, I bet it feels like you are going to be pregnant for the rest of your life!" Or "Well maybe your baby will come out walking!" Or "Hopefully you will have her by next school year!" Or "Maybe you should consider entering yourself into the Guinness Book or World Records for being pregnant the longest!" HA! I love my coworkers and their sense of humor!!!! SO THANK YOU for being REAL and on my side! :)<br />
Last reason, people trying to tell me ALL the things that will induce labor. DRIVES ME NUTS. On one of my angriest days, ha! (sounds so serious) I told Brian the next person that freaking tells me to EAT SOMETHINGS SPICY, I'm going to SHOVE A FREAKING TAMALE DOWN THEIR THROAT! It's amazing to me that people tell me these things that help labor, like I've NEVER heard of them before! Now we did try lots of things, don't get me wrong and NONE of them worked. Hence why I'm 41 weeks and 4 days pregnant!<br />
Alright well that's a wrap for the most negative post I've ever written! ha! I am really not mad just wanted to share my recent feelings of being 10 MONTHS PREGNANT! lol! I told Brian that the hard part of me being really hormonal is over. I think now for the laboring I'm going to be happy just because I know it will be worth it and result in a sweet little baby in our arms!! :) All in all we know she is WORTH the wait and I'd already do this over a million times because having a baby is such a miracle and we do feel extremely blessed to have been given the opportunity to experience such an amazing event!<br />
<br />
On to GREAT NEWS:<br />
This is my last post of being pregnant! WHAT WHAT! Yup that's right we are going in tonight to the hospital and hopefully having a baby tomorrow. (Wednesday) We are beyond excited, ready and thrilled to meet our little one. We did a sonogram yesterday since I'm past 41 weeks to make sure everything is okay with the baby and myself. Everything looks awesome and healthy. The baby's measurements are about 38-39 weeks. So either she is small or my due date is off. They are guessing around 7lbs. Give or take a pound. Her heart and lungs look awesome and she is already practicing breathing. She also has a few rolls of fat on her back already, ha! LOVE IT! So stinkin' adorable. After seeing our baby on the monitor it helped completely and made me realize that the end is SO NEAR! I've been on cloud 9 since yesterday and am truly ecstatic to meet her!<br />
<br />
We greatly appreciate everyone who has checked in on us the past few weeks and the entire pregnancy! We are blessed to be surrounded by great family and friends. Not to mention we appreciate all the thoughts and prayers that have been headed our way. We are praying for a healthy delivery and baby tomorrow! We are so excited to be parents and to hold our little girl for the first time! Much love!!!<br />
<br />
Last PREGGO PICS until baby #2!<br />

Although, I've been moving and grooving through them with the help of my wonderful hubbie and sweet family! They have been keeping me motivated and sure helping out a lot. All I want is for it to be done so I can cross it off my list. After the nursery I will be doing a slight redecorating/reorganizing to our guest bedroom/craft room which Brian is painting and fixing up right now. I also have old furniture that I can't WAIT to get rid of. Most of you that know me know that I love to keep things super clean, organized and I am slightly obsessed with getting rid of things! I just love the feeling of cleaning out things and getting rid of things we don't need or use! My husband would disagree with this, we somehow have opposite opinions on this! ha! Love ya babe! After I get that guest room done, who knows what I will do after that probably the guest/baby's bathroom and then loft area. Yes I'm crazy. I'm gonna keep on going until this baby gets here! It helps the time pass and I've gotta be constantly doing something.<br />
<br />
Are you ready? Now keep in mind the nursery is no where near done I've got to do lots of little things. But I am just so excited that is coming along finally! YAY! Remember one of my last posts, it had all of our inspiration on there. Well I slightly changed somethings for the best!<br />

We've been super duper busy here in the Shields' household doing very exciting things. I will do a longer blog later but wanted to share with you some great finds for the nursery. We love love love going to First Fridays downtown off of the 12th Street bridge. We've been going for about a year now. It all started with searching for wedding stuff last year but now this year it was all about searching for nursery/baby stuff. So fun! If you have not yet been downtown to the Antique First Fridays you MUST go. I'm addicted. I love going to get ideas I usually do not purchase a ton of stuff because I'm a DIY kinda girl. I enjoy doing projects myself and lets get honest I like saving money. Some of the prices are pricey at First Fridays. However, here is how I determine if I will pay the price. I usually make a list before I go of items I'm searching for. I then think about what color/colors it needs to be. If the item is priced okay, if it's on my list and if it's the RIGHT color I will buy it! So that is how I bought a few great items in March! Here they are! I only have a picture of a few things. The rest you will have to wait to see the Nursery Sneak Peak to see the rest of the items.<br />
<br />
Also if you LOVE vintage/flea markets as much as me and our fam. You've gotta check out Fleeting Flea at the end of March! It''s a must. This is where I have bought the MOST items for the wedding and our house! Not to mention all the items I bought for our wedding are now new decor in our house. Bonus! That was another thing I wanted to do was buy items for the wedding that will serve multi-uses!<br />
<br />
Here we go:<br />

As I mentioned before coral is a new trend color that is becoming rather popular but guess what it's freakin H-A-R-D to find the perfect coral. But I did, I found it! This is a 1955 Coronada Radio. The price tag said $22.00 doesn't work, as is! I was beyond thrilled to find this. I didn't care that it didn't work. Around the corner was an old Budweiser crate painted coral, $25.00. HOW COULD THIS BE SO? Too good to be true. I snatched up these 2 items so quick. I then called Brian to tell him about the radio and he couldn't believe I paid so much money for a non working radio. However, the research guy he is he started looking up these radios. This radio was from 1955 and only came in two colors: Rosewood & Coral. AMAZING! He came home the next day wanting to see if he could get it to work. Sure enough he worked his magic and got the radio to work. Some how we were listening to XM radio. It picked up an XM wave length. Crazy. How cool is this! Now I feel like I got this radio for a steal! As you can imagine both these items are goin in the Nursery! Yippee! </div><br />

My daddio gets tons of pallets from all his coffee that gets shipped to him. So you can imagine I have some great pallets waiting in our garage for me to get creative with. Which I will be doing a project soon for the nursery with a pallet, stay tuned. This is an adorable pallet shelf that will go in our Master Bedroom. I have seen different signs that say You & Me on it and wanted something like that for our bedroom. Well I found it. This guy I found at my new favorite Antique shop at First Fridays, called Re. Anyways this shelf was on my list, and the perfect color. I will put old milk jars in it with flowers, vintage books and some pictures in it. Adorable! It cost me around $25 I believe. In the picture it doesn't look big but it's rather huge. I think it's taller than me, which doesn't say much but an almost 5 ft shelf was a sweet deal!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZUqEN8XHivKTkdal4iDTOS0Lb9Wtzfa2utOpeHIfzWZl9V2NsybUQqIXIc58B5wYUVD3szOaCFIM6WHodYaI9DyyFhBM_sNjpQr1pn0bGEVJ_vfjL6ArB_ZKVfntUu-HQi96-N96FV9dW/s1600/fff3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZUqEN8XHivKTkdal4iDTOS0Lb9Wtzfa2utOpeHIfzWZl9V2NsybUQqIXIc58B5wYUVD3szOaCFIM6WHodYaI9DyyFhBM_sNjpQr1pn0bGEVJ_vfjL6ArB_ZKVfntUu-HQi96-N96FV9dW/s320/fff3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">How adorable?

AWW so in love. Okay soooo the First Friday Find is the & sign. I've been searching for an old beat up sign like this, I found it. I think it was $20 or something like that? Still a little much for me, but hey it completes this mantle. Once you found out how much I spent on all this decor you will agree that it was okay to splurge on a $20 sign. As for the mason jars with twigs they were from our wedding, sooo count those as free. I found this HUGE 22 x 28 beat up black vintage frame at Hobby lobby on 90% clearance in the summer for $6, yes can you believe $6! Frames are freaking expensive especially a huge one like this. It was originally $70.00. As for our wedding picture. I found this idea on pinterest. I took our picture to Office Max they blew it up to an Engineer Print, that only comes in Black and White. I was a little nervous how it would turn out and if it would be fuzzy. It's not it's clear as day and looks completely worth a ton of money! For a 22 x 28 this picture cost me a fat $3.00! UM YES! Soooo this whole mantle cost me around $29.00 not too shabby eh? I absolutely love the way it turned out! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3vDS38YaUVEUB6pLXoS0q1MByG2L1EWur6fP3iKLqJ-tT7Kl0Vhe33fT-sWNA6Y-NPoslgLXSfYU-Uh5CzHNwRNQuuIjcLhH7Pe4KxG7Z63UVu1a7mpR0v7XxlTbNwaV7-rvKCtJN9PeE/s1600/fff5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3vDS38YaUVEUB6pLXoS0q1MByG2L1EWur6fP3iKLqJ-tT7Kl0Vhe33fT-sWNA6Y-NPoslgLXSfYU-Uh5CzHNwRNQuuIjcLhH7Pe4KxG7Z63UVu1a7mpR0v7XxlTbNwaV7-rvKCtJN9PeE/s320/fff5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The last huge piece is this antique door with shelves. So fun! It was $49.00. I had to come back the next day to pick it up which was quite the ordeal with my sweet husband who was not too happy with me being that I didn't measure it. Well with a lot of frustration we got this puppy home. I had full intentions on putting it in the nursery however I don't think it will fit. The nursery seems full to me. I will be putting this in our loft area. Which I can't wait to get started on decorating that! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

However, I do have spring break in there which will allow me to hopefully knock lots of these fun projects out.<br />
<br />
First project that started this week are curtains. Mine will be a gray ruffle curtain.<br />
<br />
Here is my inspiration:<br />

It is a single panel that is $89.00. YUP, EEEEKKK! Holy expensive. My ruffles will be vertical like the second photo and my curtain cost me under $30.00 and I will be making these myself. That's more like it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Crib skirt is the next on the list. It took me FOOOOOOOOREVVVVVER to find the perfect material. But I did, I found it!! I ended up getting 2 yards of it for $25.00 with shipping. Not too bad. A lot of material/fabrics online can be rather pricey. I was super excited to find out that my fabric is from the Dwell Studio. Which I love all Dwell Studio fabrics. Here is my fabric.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVe7whLxy661iKB69wEatvnioboCQDsZozQsIbHCVj-eN_UhG0IR1_GbtJAAoVmzH_TcJYC43OuGL1dUhqKt0xu57fODSXkKn5EcQPq7HKmvvdDAG8NtbTiaPw6iTZxLtXLPcGZL7-4DF3/s1600/105546.jpg.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVe7whLxy661iKB69wEatvnioboCQDsZozQsIbHCVj-eN_UhG0IR1_GbtJAAoVmzH_TcJYC43OuGL1dUhqKt0xu57fODSXkKn5EcQPq7HKmvvdDAG8NtbTiaPw6iTZxLtXLPcGZL7-4DF3/s320/105546.jpg.png" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Stay tuned for inspiration photos and some photos of projects I will be doing for the nursery!<br />
<br />
I have a quick photo of a project I finished two weeks ago. It's a Menu board for our kitchen. We seem to do better when we are organized and plan our meals out! Not to mention Brian loves dry erase boards and wanted me to somehow incorporate one into our everyday life. So I did a dry erase Menu Board. My hubbie hung it in our kitchen today. Yipppee! First, I will show you my inspiration:<br />

Lately I have been under the weather. I have been battling this horrible cold for over a week and a half. This has literally kicked my butt. I have ZERO energy and it really stinks cause all I want to do is lay on the couch. The last thing I wanna do is chase around my whack-a-do 3rd graders! I finally took a day off Friday and went to the dr. This head cold turned into a horrible ear infection, my luck! So the dr did give me medicine thank GOODNESS and it's slowly working. I did a little more today as far as running errands but I'm perfect content with relaxing on the couch.<br />
<br />
Here are our Maternity Pics that we had my friend Amy take at The Rye Studio! We got in for one of her mini sessions and turned it into maternity pics! We love them, they turned out great. Very simple, yet creative and capture the moment. We didn't want anything over the top and we didn't want a million pics of me pregnant. Just enough to capture the moment for our little miss! They turned out great. Here they are!<br />

I didn't have a chance to post anything last week about week 29. We went to the doctor. The baby's heart sounds great. I did some lab work. Everything came back great except my blood platelets which are rather low. The only thing this means is that I will have to be retested in a few weeks to see if they increased any and they are thinking I cannot have an epidural, or any drugs during labor because of the chances of me bleeding severely. Soooo.... I was planning a natural birth anyways with the option of possibly getting an epidural. So this changes my mindset. I will be doing this the natural way. Guess I will start researching more on this!<br />
<br />
On to the good news...... WE ARE LANDLORDS. YIPEEE!!! We got Brian's house rented out. This is tremendous news. Holy cow I am not really sure how we pulled this off in less than 2 weeks. We've been praying and praying for this. Our goal was to get this taken care of before baby arrived. Well ladies and gents check it off that BIG long list of ours. We have ONE MORTGAGE. Holy cow. Whatever are we going to do with all THIS extra money? I never thought THOSE words would be coming out of my mouth. ha! Ohhhhhh I am sure we will find something to do with it, which means fixing up our house and saving saving saving. :)<br />
<br />
Here are some fun things I've been working on in my spare time which has been non existent really....<br />
<br />
I found this idea on a blog. I wish I can remember to give her credit! This is super cheesy but felt like Brian needed some sweet little motivation while we have been frantically rushing around trying to get his house ready! So I did 14 days of Valentine's day for him. I left him a little surprise every morning. Here are a few of them.<br />

It was short and sweet and fit into our hectic schedule. We just want a few pictures to show our daughter can't wait to see these done! I know they will turn out great.

We are in the last trimester, wohooo! We are feeling awesome, actually we are really exhausted. We have been working on Brian's house non stop. I even took off a day of work this week to hit it hard. I spent 9 hours, cleaning, packing, throwing away stuff. I think I over did it. I was so sore the next day and have now been getting Braxton Hicks contractions. But hey that's okay we got so much done and it was well worth it! Brian has been working non stop on his house. Between his full time job and part time job that's all he does. He can obviously do a lot more than I can as far as move lots of the big heavy stuff, so keep up the good work babe, we are almost done! It's sure coming along and we are working all week this week on it as well. Woohoo we can't wait to have it finished.<br />
<br />
I have been working on our entry way table this week. This is a piece my mom got for our wedding. She found it on the side of the curb, yup another free one! Gotta love it. We used it for our Photo Booth. It was used to hold all our cute props. It was a minty green when we got it and we left it that color for the wedding. It was super cute. I posted pictures to my Facebook of me painting it gray, and then distressing it. Here is the final product, I'M OBSESSED!<br />

Isn't she beautiful! Ahhhh I love it. I will say the pictures don't do this thing justice. All the detail looks amazing in person. I am even slightly obsessed with how well this turned out, that we might be doing the two dressers for the nursery with this color. It goes really well with the carpet, room color and our crib is a dark espresso color. PERFECT! We will see. Once we are done with Brian's house within the next week we will move our focus back to the nursery!<br />

My mother and I worked on this piece together. She got it for free on the side of the road about a year ago. It's a huge piece that is nice and sturdy. It was originally an oak color. She then primed it white. Her and I painted it two coats with a teal paint. Then we sanded/distressed the crap out of this thing. Last we stained it with a dark dark dark wood stain. It turned out PERFECT! It only cost me a total of $23.00 for the paint and stain. AMAZING! This piece of furniture has lots of storage and will be used for baby items. Here she is, isn't she lovely?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcip3WNGN7o8VgULpy-0S0d8NB3UMQMhgocFFhyo46cRgRXPNq8Im6RdIyDhBzprATCosTn6SGwza43ABnaoBbn41VReAdd9ZNl0XhkCnqv5vjRRkI5QPsiUsPz6aA2hyphenhyphenNlY2zrVb6J_Uw/s1600/teal5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcip3WNGN7o8VgULpy-0S0d8NB3UMQMhgocFFhyo46cRgRXPNq8Im6RdIyDhBzprATCosTn6SGwza43ABnaoBbn41VReAdd9ZNl0XhkCnqv5vjRRkI5QPsiUsPz6aA2hyphenhyphenNlY2zrVb6J_Uw/s320/teal5.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

We have been doing great and super busy. I'm back at work at school and have some dance stuff booooooo and Brian is back to working his full time job and part time job! So free time is limited. Which we still have a million things to do!<br />
<br />
This week was it....... We got to do another sonogram to see our sweet little baby! Everything looks healthy, perfect and normal. We are so blessed. Our baby is measuring a little small which is fine, it will be a little petite baby as of now! And YES we found out the sex of our little one!! EEEKKK! We are beyond thrilled. We immediately called all our family! Before I reveal we tossed back and forth with having a reveal party for friends and family. We already had to cancel one because we didn't find out the first time. After Brian and I went back and forth we decided we wouldn't have a reveal party and just call all our friends to let them know because we just wanted to finally TELL people! And.....we have ONE million things we need to be doing and focusing on! I have a million projects to be done along with life itself!<br />
<br />
Now on to the exciting news........<br />

Brian is too sweet and one of the first things he said was that his heart would melt when he saw her! He then started talking future on the way home from the doctors office. He said, "Jen what are we going to do if our daughter wants to wear a thong when she is in high school? And will you have that conversation with her and tell her it's not allowed in our household?" I laughed SO hard! Good thing the baby comes out as a baby and we will have SEVERAL years before we even have to think about that!! Ohhhhhh Brian!!!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Let the fun begin! Let the hair bow making begin! Let the clothes/onesie making begin! Let the nursery decorating begin! Let Brian & I's journey of being parents begin!! Woohooo! So excited! As far as names we have no names picked out. We have a list started though. The name will be a surprise when we have her. As far as the nursery, it will be painted soon. We have all our furniture we just need to refinish the dresser/changing table. And then I will begin crafts and decorating soon!! Yippee! Colors we are thinking: cream/white with accents of coral, gold and turquoise/teal/blues! We do not want something girly or babyish. We are going for more of sophisticated, chic, vintage and unique for our little miss! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I believe Brian and I are going to be tackling the registering this Sunday. We are thinking Target and Buy Buy Baby. If any of my mom friends out there have suggestions on where to register? What's one thing I MUST register for? Message me!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span">This week at school one of my students who isn't normally sweet or really caring for that matter (hehe) said to me, "Mrs.Shields OH MY GOSH there is something really wrong with your feet, they are BRIGHT RED! Are you going to be okay?" haha. I responded with, "I'm fine, go sit down and stop talking in the hallway." Which then I realized well that was nice of him to ask me if I was okay.I knew if I said, "Oh it's just because I'm pregnant," then everything I did wrong or did my students will catch on and say "It's because she's pregnant." Sooo let the swelling begin. I'm trying to not be on my feet as much at school which is almost impossible. I've noticed that my feet will only swell if my room is hot or if I eat salty food. Which I hate salt so that's fine! Last week we had those 2 nice days outside and I noticed I started swelling in my feet too. Thank goodness the majority of my pregnancy it will be winter. Oh the joys! :)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

How in the world can 2012 top 2011?Happy New Year Friends! Holy smokes we can't believe another year has gone by. I wanted to dedicate this post to the amazing year of 2011. Brian and I would have to agree that this year was by far the best year of our lives! Talk about a year loaded with EXCITEMENT after EXCITEMENT. How can 2011 be topped? Well there might be a way.....<br />
<br />
Best Memories of 2011:<br />
<br />
Brian and I got engaged Christmas 2010. Although it was 2010 technically I would consider this event as 2011! Just thinking about this time in our lives gives me goose bumps and brings butterflies to my stomach. The best moment was to see Brian get down on one knee and tell me that I couldn't be his girlfriend anymore because he wanted me to be my wife. OK... I'm already tearing up, darn hormones! But really this was one of the best days of my life. Just hearing him say this justified our unbreakable, undeniable love for one another! Not to mention it did help a little that he put a giant/gorgeous rock on my finger. :) That's besides the point though because I know that the important thing is what our rings symbolize! This was one day we sure will never ever forget.<br />

<br />
After our engagement we had a WORLD WIND of events happen especially since we were planning a wedding in uhhhh 5 months!! We pulled it off I must say! My best friend Angie's parents threw us an engagement party in January, with the help of our wedding party, SO FUN! We got engagement pictures takin by the talented Tim Fleenor in January. Our wedding party threw us a couple's shower in March! My sister threw us a beautiful bridal shower in April. My work threw us a bridal shower in May! My wedding party took me out to the Lake for my Bachelorette Party at the end of May, and threw me another one back in Kansas City in June! WHEW! Talk about something every single month, we were sure busy busy in a wonderful way!<br />

The wedding crafts! Someday not just yet I will blog about the million and one crafts myself, my talented husband, our family, and my sweet friends helped out with! Without them ALL we wouldn't of been able to pull the wedding off! I mean seriously when we weren't having a shower, party or event to attend for our wedding we were at home crafting and I mean CRAFTING AWAY! It made for a perfect, memorable, detailed wedding that's for sure!<br />

Our wedding day. Awwwww sooooo amazing! Many of you know I've never dreamt about my wedding nor cared to have a wedding. My belief is that you get engaged to get married (hence the rather short engagement) and then it doesn't matter where you get married. All that matters is that you are making a commitment to the one person you are meant to be with for the rest of your life. I truly would have been okay with getting married in a courthouse, off on a beach by our selves, yup by ourselves! It didn't matter we could make this commitment anywhere and it would still have the same meaning! My testimony to this belief is my parents, who have had in my eyes a perfect, successful marriage of almost 30 years! Yup pretty amazing huh, well they got married in a courthouse. It's proof that it doesn't matter where you get married that is going to measure how successful your marriage is. I think this is partly of what's wrong with our society today. So many people get caught up in wanting their wedding to be perfect, perfect, perfect. Vomit! Well let me tell you......that's not going to measure the success of your marriage! And let me let you in on a little secret too..... no wedding is perfect. Things go wrong. Everything you could ever think of went wrong on our wedding day. Did I care, nope! I laughed, and said okay what's the plan now. Oh we are on plan Z! Great, we got this! Although everything went wrong, it was perfect to us! I would never change a minute of that day! We will remember it forever. I'm a little exhausted still from thinking about our wedding day, but to sum it up in one word..... perfect!<br />
<br />
Although marriage is about compromise, which I figured this out quickly and I think this is why Brian and I are such a great team. Brian had dreamed of seeing his Bride walk down the aisle in a gorgeous white dress. So we compromised with a short engagement and a wedding. Yup I had to bite my tongue and put together a wedding to remember! Now our wedding was a bit over the top with the details and crafts let me tell you. Most of you that know me know that I only do things one way.... THE RIGHT WAY. lol So since my hansom groom begged and talked me into having an actual wedding I said, "Fine, then I am going all out and this is going to be the most gorgeous, vintage, elegant, detailed, EVENT EVER!" :) Right then Brian knew he had his work cut out for him! He kept up and did an amazing job at all the projects, creating and crafting!<br />
<br />
Like I mentioned before our wedding day was the most hectic, crazy, bizarre, unreal, yet AMAZING DAY! Here are some pictures of how perfect it turned out. You would have never known that a micro burst came through and ruined the tent the night before, almost $30,000 worth of damage done. You would have never known several tables and chairs flew into the fields and snapped in half . You would have never known that the port-a-potties ended up in the fields. You would have never known that several lanterns broke and glass was all over the back yard. You would have never known there were tree limbs in the pool, glass in the pool and chairs in the pool. You would have never known the new tent wasn't set up till almost 5pm. You would have never known the WHOLE wedding party was sweating bullets trying to get everything set up until 6:15. The wedding started at 7. You would have never known that I didn't get into my dress until 6:30. You would have never known that Brian and I had to schedule another date to take pictures together because we ran out of time. You would have never known that my ring didn't come in that day. I could keep going but I think you get the point!!! This day was one to remember. All that mattered is that Brian and I were officially husband and wife. There was no ruining our day, that's for sure! We were willingly ready to overcome any challenges that stood in our way. I think this says a lot about us as a couple! We can get through anything. We have been through a lot of things over the course of our relationship, so we know in our hearts that their isn't anything we can't get through! This love story ended happy as "Mr. & Mrs. Shields". We officially were married and starting the journey of the rest of our lives together as husband and wife!<br />

After our amazing wedding day, we headed to our honeymoon. The exotic Costa Rica. We were able and fortunate to stay for 2 weeks. Which was much needed after our exhausting yet perfect wedding! :) We did some amazing outings and got to relax too! We stayed in this beautiful all glass house on top of the mountains. We went to the beach for a few days, horse back riding in the mountains, got massages, zip lining through the rain forests, saw volcanoes, got to see coffee plantations, cigar factory, several water falls, cooked many meals together, met some great people and really got to experience the rain forest! Simply a trip we will remember forever!<br />

As soon as the Honeymoon was over Brian and I moved in together! FINALLY! SO wonderful. I am a huge advocate for not living with your spouse until your married. It was one of the best decisions we made as a couple. It was that much more special when we were able to move in together and share our lives together as husband and wife! It was awesome! Brian's moved in now. However, we are crazy and still have 2 houses! Yup, 2. We are in the process of getting his house rented out and eventually sold! It's a process and there was one little thing that has slowed us down.....<br />
<br />
The next big thing in 2011..... The announcement of BABY SHIELDS! Okay okay okay who are we kidding, 2011 was amazing and unforgettable but there is one thing that could top it..... The arrival of Baby Shields! :) Knowing it's 2012 and this is the year our child will be born is so crazy to wrap my brain around! We couldn't be anymore excited to bring this new little one into the world!<br />
<br />

This post is a little late, story of my life now! Anyways, we were so blessed this year to have yet another amazing Christmas! We were able to make Christmas Eve candle light service and then got to celebrate with both our extended families on Christmas Eve. Brian also worked at the firehouse on Christmas day. But it worked out great because we got up super early had our Christmas together, a yummie Christmas morning breakfast and opened presents together! Okay I will admit I was sad when 7:30am rolled around and he had to leave. I think I hugged him for like 5 minutes straight cause I didn't want him to go! I stayed with my family most of the day. Then I went to the firehouse, brought the guys a yummie dinner and got to hang out for a few hours in the oh-so-comfy recliners! :)<br />
<br />
For Christmas we got lots of baby stuff which is awesome!!! We are so thankful! I cannot WAIT to get the cute little clothes washed and put away. Maybe this will be the first time ever that I will enjoy doing laundry. Oh yes and we are super ready to get things going in the nursery. First step was new carpet. DONE! Looks amazing! My sweet hubs worked SO hard all week with my dad and our close friend Shawnski to get all the old carpet ripped up, seal the floors, replace all our stairs, and fix all the creeks in our floor! Woohoo!! Pictures to come soon. I'm still deep cleaning everything and of course putting up some new decor. Did I mention that I cannot WAIT to get hmmmm..... every single room repainted in our house! Well YUP I can't wait. Looks like we will start on the guest bedroom and nursery very very soon, right babe? :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Here are our Christmas cards this year. I got the template on a cute website: www.groopdealz.com .We soooo badly wanted to do maternity pictures for the actual picture but ya know we ran out of time. So we used our engagement pictures which were done in January 2011. Maternity pictures will be hopefully this January sometime before I get tooooo huge! :)<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now for a baby Shields update:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">How far along: 23 weeks</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Total weight gain: not sure around 15lb or so.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Maternity clothes: nope- wearing my belly band with my jeans love that thing!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Stretch marks: nope but I'm freaking out at any little mark I see. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Sleep: great. Really loving my wedge I sleep with</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Best Moment: I was in the bath the other night and I felt the baby moving all around. I then noticed I can actually see my tummy move when the baby moves! SO cool! Also loved loved loved seeing Brian open all our baby gifts this Christmas. He is getting SO excited and I just love seeing that excitement in his eyes, so cute!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Miss anything: nope- just my husband when he is at the station.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Movement: lots. The kicks are getting stronger which means baby shields is growing, yay!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Food cravings: ORANGES! Salads! But did I say ORANGES? Well this week, as of Christmas day I have been eating oranges like crazy. I had 4 on Christmas day, the small cuties though. Now I have at least 2 or 3 of those a day. I can't get enough of them. Also chocolate now that it's the holiday season. I also started drinking a small amount of coffee in the mornings again. I think it was a temperature thing before, I just didn't like drinking warm/hot things. So now I down a big glass of milk with all my vitamins and then have a small cup of coffee in the mornings.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anything making you queasy or sick: nope</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Started showing: OH YES. I had a lady at the register ask me, " Oh are you getting close to you due date?" I replied with first laughing and said, "No not really I have until April!" Guess she thought I was big for almost 6 months! Sweetness.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Gender: It's a mystery. We might, might, might find out Jan. 9th.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Labor signs: nope</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Belly button: In and still have my belly button ring in</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Wedding rings: on</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Mood: HAPPY! Who isn't happy when they are on Christmas Break!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Looking forward to: Getting the guest bedroom and nursery painted within the next week or so! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

No One Knows!!!The past two weeks sure have flown by! Things have been going great. Ever since I've started my 5th month of pregnancy I have a crazy amount of energy. Well I still get tired but I'm actually cleaning, running errands, organizing, decorating, dancing, crafting, baking, cleaning, cleaning and CLEANING! Last weekend was too funny I was literally running around the house like a mad woman who has ADD. Which for those of you who really know me know I don't believe in ADD, yup I'm a teacher and don't believe in it! It's called parenting! (Alright now I'm off my box) :) But anyways if I believed in ADD I was totally distracted by the ONE million things I needed to do. I was running around the house cleaning, decorating, redecorating, and then somehow I ended up going through lots of clothes to get rid of them! Totally random! I was doing this all while Brian was watching football and just starring at me like I've gone crazy. He just kept laughing and saying HOLY COW LET THE NESTING BEGIN, blah blah blah! hehe! He was so glad to see me with lots of energy though!<br />
<br />
On to the good news.... We had a sonogram for baby shields last Monday. We were told this was the time we would find out the sex of baby Shields. So we had a gender reveal party planned with our family and close friends! We originally were calling it a sex party, too funny! Then my dad started asking, "So whens the sex party?" Yup you guessed it......things got real Awkward!! lol For some reason it wasn't so funny anymore when my dad started saying it so..... Gender Reveal it was! I made these Ahhhhdorable invites on Etsy and sent them out!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Pretty cute huh? So we went to the appointment of course we were SO excited the WHOLE day and the days leading up to our appointment. I kept getting cute text messages from Brian while I was at work that day.... one of them saying: I'm so ******* excited! haha! We decided that we would find out at the appointment and then keep it a secret until our reveal party. Well Brian decided that because he can't stand surprises, he has to know!! The appointment went great. We got to see our baby, the spine, the brain, the heart, the arms, the legs. However, it was curled up on my right hip and facing my spine. So we didn't get to see the face, feet and it was hiding it's goods! We couldn't tell if it was a boy or girl. It was moving around tons but the feet were so curled up that there was no way to find out. BUMMER! We were not too disappointed because we had warned ourselves for this to happen. So we have another appointment Jan. 9th to do another sonogram to see if we can tell then! Which means the Gender Reveal Party got canceled! Boo!! Oh well it's okay!! We were so thankful that our baby was healthy and right on track with it's growing!! That's the most important part. We feel so blessed and keep continuing to pray every day (a million times a day) that this baby gets here healthy as can be! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">On to the next question that I keep getting.... is the nursery done? ha NOPE! What nursery? Just kidding we are using one of our guest bedrooms that will be turned into the nursery! I have not started on anything, I want to know what we are having first. I have not bought one thing for this baby yet. We have been lucky to have been given a brand new crib, an amazing rocking chair from Pottery Barn and then I'm repainting an old vintage dresser that I refinished, this will be the changing table! So I've got the basic here. We will be getting new carpet in our house, which includes the nursery next week so that's a step! We will then paint the room. As in we I mean Brian. I love painting but he says I'm a horrible painter. He used to paint houses growing up so he is really particular! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Funny Pregnancy Story: Last week was a crazy, crazy, crazy week at school. It was jammed packed with fun activities, a field trip to crown center, crazy behavior, Christmas parties and more! Anyways my day on Friday started at 5am to finish packing up Christmas goodies for my friends at school. It was a crazy day because we had 2 parties and a Christmas singalong. I was beyond tired. After school my friend Jenn and I went to HyVee so I could make Christmas cards for the firehouse. We were trying to kill time before our </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">work Holiday Party that night that started at 5. I left the party around 9. I still had to get groceries at Hen House on the way home. So around 9:45 I walk out of Hen House. I loaded up my car with the groceries and then..... I go around my car and get in the passenger side. WHAT? hahaha. I was the only person there. I was so tired I guess I thought Brian was there and he was going to drive me home. So of course I start laughing at myself and hoping NO ONE saw me do this. I get back out of the passenger side and walk around to the driver side and drive myself home, which is like a minute away. I get home, go inside, let the dogs out, get ready for bed and an hour later I realize CRAP all the groceries are still in the car. This mama was ONE TIRED MAMA! haha! Oh man!!! Of course when I told Brian he responded with, "Well I hope you don't leave our child in the car when you're tired!" hehe! Ohhh geeze, last week was a long week and Friday was an even longer day to say the least!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Here is the official update:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">How far along: 22 weeks ( 5 1/2 months)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Total weight gain: 13lbs</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Maternity clothes: Nope, still fitting in my clothes. When I work I do wear maternity slacks because they are comfy comfy!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Stretch Marks: I just bought stretch mark oil and boob tube! ha! They are suppose to be WONDERFUL. I can't wait to use them, they better be worth the money I spent on them! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Sleep: great! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Best moment this week: Seeing our baby at our appointment and seeing Brian's face when we got to see our jelly bean!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Miss anything: nope</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Movement: LOTS! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Food cravings: I have been loving this vegetarian bean and rice burrito at Taco Bueno!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Anything make me queasy or sick: nope. Well Brian got food poisoning last week. I was doing a great job taking care of him until I heard him puking. I had to go down stairs cause it was starting to make me sick. I could still hear him and started gaging. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Showing: OH yes! I love going over to see my family at my parents house, but every time I walk in I hear, "OH MY GOSH YOUR BELLY!" Guess I'm just getting used to it. Someone at the firehouse (no names) said, "Oh wow you look like you're going to pop." I responded with WOW thanks I only have 4 more months to go! ha!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Gender: unknown!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Labor signs: no</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Wedding rings: On! My fingers have shrunk because of the winter so they are sliding off! Guess my fingers aren't swelling so that's good!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Happy or moody: Happy all the time! Well I'll admit I was moody twice this week to my sweet sweet husband!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Looking forward to: Christmas with the family! I'm on break from school which is an amazing feeling and is exactly what I needed!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">About the whole touching my belly thing, I'm trying to get better at letting people touch it. I think it's just when people are rubbing it, talking to it and singing to it what weirds me out! Every time I go to my parents Brian's on belly patrol so no one touches my belly. I'm slowly getting okay with it, slowly I said. hehe!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

Holy smokes these past few months have truly flown by. But yet they can't go fast enough! Brian and I found out August 22nd that we were Pregnant!!!! It was pretty comical! Brian swore and new that I was pregnant and said, "Jenni please don't go buy a test because they are so expensive." Well finally I talked him into going. I took it and sure enough PREGNANT! We were SO excited and Brian of course said, I TOLD YOU! I was kind of in shock so I said, "Well let me just take another just to make sure" Brian then ran with the tests and hid them because he didn't want me to waste them! haha! I ended up finding them and took another. I was STILL PREGNANT! Too funny!<br />
<br />
<br />
Here is a brief summary of trimester 1: Easy! Exhausted! No sickness! Some food sounded REALLY good or disgusting.<br />
<br />
Month 4: The hardest yet! I got the stomach flu twice and had a few complications which led us to the ER. Everything turned out perfect. But still the scariest thing I've ever experienced. This led me to missing a few days of school so that way I can rest and take it easy! It seemed to work well! Not to mention my husband is amazing. I could go on and on and bore you with how lucky I am but I won't. Brian is just a wonderful husband, so supportive, loving and caring! He has helped SO much with everything. Love that man! He is going to be the best dad and I cannot wait to see him in that role! I know it will just melt my heart.<br />
<br />
Month 5: I just turned 20 weeks! Awwww what an amazing feeling this is to be HALF way done! Pregnancy so far has been really awesome and easy but I am dying to meet this little one! Our baby has really started to move this week. I think it's doing flips or something, the coolest feeling ever!!! I can't wait till the feeling gets stronger!! One thing that has surprised me is that I didn't think it was going to bother me when people touch my stomach or talk to my baby. Well it does. It really weirds me out, and I hate it! The only person that doesn't bother me is Brian. I love when he touches my tummy and talks to our baby everyday when we wake up, when we are just lounging on the couch, when I get home from work and when we go to sleep! Other people..... not so much. I really feel bad about not liking it but maybe I will like it when I start to show more! Or when I get used to having this belly.<br />
<br />
Here are some fun questions:<br />
How far along: 20 weeks<br />
Total weight gain/loss: 9lbs. (stomach flu set me back a little)<br />
Maternity clothes: Some pants only because they are OH SO COMFY!<br />
Stretch Marks: None- I'm using lots of lotion to hopefully prevent<br />
Sleep: Great! I have a pregnancy pillow and a wedge from a friend and LOVE them both<br />
Best Moment this week: Feeling our baby do flips this morning<br />
Miss Anything: Sleeping on my tummy and having wine now its the holiday time<br />
Movement: YES lots today<br />
Food craving: nope<br />
Anything make you queasy or sick: When Angie was eating potato soup last night<br />
Showing yet: oh yes<br />
Labor Signs: no<br />
Gender: Unknown. We have an appointment next Monday. Hopefully baby Shields cooperates. If I could make this baby a boy for Brian I would!<br />
Belly Button In or out: in<br />
Wedding rings on or off: On<br />
Happy or moody: I've been really happy the entire pregnancy.<br />
Looking forward to: Our Dr. apt next Monday! Love seeing pictures of our baby!<br />

He was so kind to take more pics of us after we got back from our Honeymoon in July! Since we had a tornado the day of our wedding we didn't get to get pictures of just the Bride, Groom and of us married!! Okay I'm being a bit dramatic it wasn't a tornado but it was a real Micro Burst! Enjoy!<br />

School started so my life has been consumed with teacher shmeacher stuff and by 26 little 3rd grade monsters! I will say this year has gone great! Besides one of my days last week that was a little nutso. All in one day I had outraged parents come up to school about something rather silly that happened at recess, one of my children was physically restrained and another student brought a weapon to school. ALL in one day! Yup craziest day ever. That was the short quick nice version too! The beginning of school usually wipes me out. Once I get home from school around 5, we cook dinner, watch some tv, and I of course am known for going to bed super grandma early! If I don't get my sleep I'm a crab! :) This is basically my excuse to why I have not been blogging!! I'm going to try and get better!<br />
<br />
I have also still had wedding galore surround me! I'm really over this wedding thing. lol. One (mine) was enough for us!! Anyways my bestest friend in the world is getting married so I crafted some gifts for her! Which I am soooo excited for her and her future hubby!

So I found this free one my parents weren't using at their office. It was an ugly tan and gray color. I painted it white. Then I modge podged the drawers with black & white scrapbook paper I had left over from a wedding project. The grand total of this project and new furniture piece for my classroom a big fat $0.00. LOVE!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Next up, is a paper organizer that I've been in desperate need of. It will be for all of my colored/construction paper. I have almost broke down and bought one at Michael's in the scrap booking area but those suckers are EXpensive. I mean really expensive. They all are of course ugly too. I like a little style in my life. Sooooooo...... I also found several small fed ex boxes from my parents work they do not use any more. I cut off one side of them all. I attached them all together and modge podged with fabric. Um... can we say adorable. I am so excited about this since this project cost me a big fat $0.00. I already had all the supplies laying around the house. Here it is:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Last we have magazine holders. I too made these out of a medium size fed ex box. All I did was cut out the shape I needed with an exacto knife. I then modge podged them with scrap book paper and a few with fabric. I loved this project because it cost me a total of $0.00 as well. I like this pattern I have going on with spending NO money!! :) They really did turn out so cute! I only made 3 because I ran out of glue so I will finish those up tomorrow!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMm-WNsVAIRgIpEkzyhHLOdrNcTlwmqvHdHbqUJOzC25AHfssAWAKmNtf8DTMj5_zJFYwz6cQn-aoEOMdxBTJLkHDP7f9T5EJr1XXU37dKeA4olL6hn45YShUz4sBOhmHamm8uVMTUYP37/s1600/magazine1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMm-WNsVAIRgIpEkzyhHLOdrNcTlwmqvHdHbqUJOzC25AHfssAWAKmNtf8DTMj5_zJFYwz6cQn-aoEOMdxBTJLkHDP7f9T5EJr1XXU37dKeA4olL6hn45YShUz4sBOhmHamm8uVMTUYP37/s320/magazine1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

ORANGE!So my mom and I are obsessed with First Fridays downtown. There are so many amazing vintage/antique vendors. We spotted this orange trunk last month. It was a great price at $45. It's was HUGE too. I decided to not get it because I couldn't justify at the time where it would go in our house. Well you know me I kept thinking about it the past month and then told my mom that if it was there this month then I would have to get it. I decided that it can either go upstairs in the hallway and replace my wicker chest or it can go in my cluttered craft room to help store all my fabrics and such. Sure enough we get there early Saturday morning and it's STILL there. I think the only reason why it was still there was because it had soooo much clutter stacked on top of it and you really couldn't see it. So we moved all the items off of it to take a better look. This puppy was still $45. It has a removable drawer, it's huge, not rusted, no metal sticking out, wheels on the bottom and it's ORANGE. My favorite color!!! My mom practically yelled at the lady to say that WE WANTED IT!! It's an early Birthday present for me, Thanks mama!! Sure enough as we kept looking around a million people kept going up to it because you could finally see it now that it had all the clutter off of it. We decided to hurry up and pay for this puppy and get it HOME! We didn't want anyone else trying to take it. It was that good of a deal. Anyways enough talking.... Here are some pictures. They really don't even do it justice. But ahhhhh I can't wait to get it up stairs!! :)<br />
