Hampshire Happenings: Our Latest Project

Time feels like it has been flying by and I cannot believe that I am already 26 weeks pregnant! Mady and I are doing great and she is getting stronger and stronger by the day. At our last appointment I had to take the test for gestational diabetes and thank goodness I passed!! Besides a few episodes of heartburn, which is the worst, and some occasional back pain I really can't complain much. I've been really lucky! I can feel Mady moving around everyday and am noticing that she is starting to develop a schedule. She loves the mornings after breakfast, and she calms down around noon, and by night time she is up and ready to party. That might be because that's when her daddy is able to talk to her :)

With Nick being on shift work we have to take advantage of the weekends he has off so this weekend we spent it working on Mady's nursery. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it because it looks amazing! Nick did all the hard work but I helped out a lot! I have never felt more pregnant than I did this past weekend. I was exhausted, and at various points Nick would walk in and find me sprawled out on the floor. He worked so hard to get this done and it looks really great. It is perfect and we find ourselves walking in there just to look at it, lol. Ridiculous, I know! I do have to give a huge thanks to Steve and Dan at Nick's work for letting us use their tools for this project. They made the job so much easier and were just amazing to have. Thanks guys! Here are some pictures of our work...
