We're about 95% finished with Emma's nursery. We just need to hang some stuff on the wall, and that's it. I can not believe it's ready. It feels literally like yesterday that I was taking the pregnancy test! Now I'm 33 weeks and have another room in my house for another one of my children. How crazy is that?
We worked so hard on her nursery. Okay, Adam worked so hard on her nursery, and it totally paid off. We're in love with this room. When you stand in the hallway in the perfect spot you can see Emma's nursery on one side, and Kolton's on the other. It's so amazing! You see one blue baby boy room for the most perfect little boy, and you also see one pink nursery for the most perfect little princess. Ah! How much fun is this going to be!!
You just have to love girl stuff, have to! I mean, how could you not look at these little crochet bands, flowers, and bow and not totally melt. The flowers clip on to the band, so you can match them with whatever band you'd like. I'm wanting Emma to come home from the hospital wearing one of these bands, I'm just on a mission to find her something that matches them.
I think we can officially say Kolton is walking. Well, can it be official if he can only walk barefoot or with socks on? He hasn't quite mastered walking with shoes on, but still. Walking like this at 10 months is pretty dag on amazing if you ask me. My friend called it a "Zombie Walk" and I think that's the PERFECT definition. Sometimes when he gets excited while walking he'll start to "growl" (or whatever you want to call it) and it's for sure a Zombie or Monster Walk!
Here's a video to show how well he's walking. :) Enjoy!
My best friend and her mom (Momma Lyn!) were recently able to come and visit with us while on their way to NYC (you know, the VERSACE internship I was telling you about) and of course they came bearing gifts. Momma Lyn is one of my absolute favorite people in the world. She's hilarious and obviously so thoughtful, on the trip to my house she knitted Kolton and Emma each a bib and a wash cloth. I -love-love-love-love em. Dear Momma Lyn if you're reading this I think you need to make more trips to my house so 1) I can see your beautiful face, 2) You can teach me how to sew, and 3) You can bring me more awesome homemade goodies! :)
My best friend just recently moved to NYC to intern at VERSACE! I think what she's doing is totally amazing, and I'm so proud of her. She always send me and my family the best gifts (seriously, she's the best gift sender!) and I just recently received a package from her that was THE BEST! It had all kinds of goodies, but my favorite was 2 onesies (one for Kolton and one for Emma).
Here's Emma's...
how flipping fantastic is this?!!? Kolton's is absolutely adorable too, but it was in the wash when I took pictures of Emma's and I'm too impatient. I wanted to post pictures of them now. Auntie Erin is the coolest! Thanks Moon!!
I just wanted to give you all an update on Emma & Kolton. We recently just had a check up and everything is going great with Emma. I go next week to see the doctor who performed my c-section with Kolton (and who will also do Emma's if that's what I decide) to talk to him about the best option on whether I should elect for a c-section or not. It's a tough decision, and I have Kolton to think of now. Between the doctor, Adam, and myself I'm sure we'll make the best decision. Can we believe I'm 8 months pregnant! My how time flies.
Speaking of time flying, Kolton just turned 10 months August 29th. He's eating regular food, same thing as mommy and daddy, he's eats baby food very seldom, he's using a sippy cup, he only gets 2 bottles a day -one in the morning and one before bed, and he's walking!! Every day he walks more and more. It baffles me. Today while I was cooking dinner I turned to check on him while he was in the living room, and he just walked into the kitchen like it was nothing! He's pretty much the most amazing thing I have ever laid eyes on, he's so-totally-amazing. Love that boy!! Here's a video of him taking his first bit of steps. This was taken last week and he's walking SO much more already. He's keeping mommy busy!
A million weeks ago my very awesome friend Jenifer sent me tons of clothes for Emma and Kolton. I've been quite busy lately, and when I'm not -I'm lazy. I'm long over due for a thank you (even though I've already told her) for all these goodies, I mean happies!. She literally hooked Emma up. Let me tell you, I went to Old Navy and literally could not buy my daughter anything because every new item was what she sent me! Thank you so much Jenifer, Josh, and OF COURSE Mackenzie!! You guys are amazing!
