My Conroe Shower, and Baby Jax's Nursery!!!!!

I had SO MUCH FUN last weekend at my shower... I truly felt so special and loved. The shower was given by Jax's Aunt, Grammie, and Cousin Riplee..and they truly did a beautiful job!!! Here are some pictures from our fun weekend!!!! 

Friday afternoon ready to hit the road!

Arrived at our Lake Condo...dressed and ready for a girls dinner on the lake with my mom... look at that bump!!!

my MOCKtail... 

Mom!

I love the hills but sometimes I miss the lake!!!! It looked so pretty!

WOHOO!! As I walked into the shower I was greeted with this gorgeous display of food!

& Baby Jax cookies...In love!!!

Banner Aunt Becky made him... she is so talented!

Jax M&Ms...so detailed!

My Nana and me!!! ALL boys on the keeshan side of the family...Jax will be the second great grandson!!! ( Making me still the only girl on the whole side of the family :))!

Honey and me!

All my girlfriends.. there is one missing but I know she was watching from heaven. 

Spent many years with these amazing girls!!! 

YUM!

The thank you take home M&Ms..personalized with JAX!

One of my gifts.... holy CUTE!!!! This southern Mama loves a monogram!

of course Uncle Brant got this for Jax's Golfin' dad!

Tuesday after the shower we had our 3d ultrasound!! It truly was such a cool experience. Jax did not cooperate with us very well so we only got a few shots which allows us to go back one more time to see him!! YAY!

I found this at my FAVORITE baby shop in San Antonio..Nursery couture. It is so beautiful!

Fit perfectly in his room!!! Here are some Nursery Pictures! Finally!

I wanted to go with a rustic theme but am NOT into camp or anything super dark so I chose the color Colonade Grey by BEHR for the walls.. and then just sought after something Boy...which to me ended up being Navy. We ordered his furniture from Pottery Barn and I am so in love with it! It turns out that the PB cribs are 4 in 1 so he will be able to use it for many years to come!!!! Most of the art i had custom made from a store here in SA called CRIB and KIDS. They do beautiful monogram work for kids and that is where his little moose came from. I just love how it turned out!

Oh hey belly!

When you walk in the room.. 

I did not want to use a changing table so I am just going to use this dresser with a simple changer until he is done with that. It was too small of a space to try and jam pack a changing table.. so hopefully this will work!!! The custom prints are from the cutest shop on Etsy -Wildland designs. Bear.Moose.Duck. 

Side view

His rug was from the PB outlet! Score!! I went with the Harper bedding and Valence!

A shot of his little chair. 

coming home outfit!! So cute!

His closet!!! I know I'm crazy!! 

Mama and her almost 8 month bump! 

The end!

Life Lately....

Not much going on around here.. just a bunch of organizing, baby prepping, and finishing up for the end of the school year!!! Here are some fun pics from life lately!!!

It has been nothing but RAIN..so on the off chance of sun I do this 

At my parents for my DG's Birthday!

The fam.

Seriously I have been such a slacker when it has come to cooking.. Im hoping my creativity will pick back up once the baby is here.. eventually.. but for now my dad spoils me with his cooking. Steak and Lobster night!

A random Monday Morning... 

Bumpie!!! I have had so much fun dressing the bump this pregnancy!!! My favorite stores have been

A Pea in the Pod

PINK BLUSH

Seriously ...such cute stuff!!! Also very transitional for after you have the baby and your tummy is still super pouchy..I loved all of their clothes!

Got a little crafty and painted the outdoor furniture. 

Ordered my new monogram hat from my favorite Etsy store!! #itzybitzytripzy

Had brunch with Brandon at our new favorite hole in the wall. Behind our neighborhood is a cute rustic ( think fredricksburg or canton) street with TONS of shops and little restaurants on it. I literally have no idea how I haven't discovered it but they have a TO DIE for restaurant called grumpys...and this my friends was what I ate. 

We got our maternity pictures back!!! I love this one!!!!

Enjoyed my favorite craving. FROYO.

Another Bumpie!!! Cute outfit from Pink Blush!!!

:) Cant wait to post pics from my Baby Showers!!!!

Hello Third Trimester!!!!!!-Pregnancy Update!!!

Pregnancy Update!!!!

How far along:  27 weeks!!!

Total weight gain:  16 lbs

Maternity clothes:  Oh yes most definitely. 

Stretch marks: nope!

Sleep: Still getting up every night to go pee and I have been getting a bunch of ligament stretching so sleep is starting to become uncomfortable

Best moment of this week:  Honestly this particular WEEK has sucked...I have had a horrible stomach virus and am currently blogging from my bed :( Best moment this MONTH would be getting our maternity pictures taken, having my makeup professionally done and being completely pampered by a fun spa day given by my husband :) 

Miss anything: Starting to miss shopping wherever I want...I am pretty much limited to the maternity stores and I am ready to hit Nordstroms and some of my old favorite boutiques. Oh and maybe wine :)

Movement: yes!! This is probably my FAVORITE part of pregnancy!! His little foot gets jammed up in my ribs and when I press it gently he kicks back as to say " no mom I want it there!!" :) I Love feeling baby boy kick soooo much!

Food cravings: Lately it has been iced coffee...or something sweet. I am supposed to limit my sweets so I usually choose one or the other. Brandon got me a GIGI cupcake the other day and I was probably a little more than excited.

Anything making you queasy or sick: nope!

Have you started to show yet: Definitley rocking the bump...

Gender: Boy!!

Labor signs: nope to early-have felt a few Braxton hicks here and there

Belly button in or out:  its in but it looks flat like a pancake

Wedding rings on or off: On

Happy or moody most of the time: People and certain things def. annoy me a lot more...but I'm not sure if it is because I'm pregnant or because of my lack of cafffiene/ alcohol :) 

Looking forward to:  Seeing all of my family and friends at my fun Baby showers!!! Also just finishing the final touches on his nursery...and of course meeting our precious boy!!!! I feel so grateful every single day that God chose ME to be Jax's mom. 

Some fun pictures!!! 

My makeup before our session

Nesting has full on kicked in.. I ordered that mirror from PB and Brandon installed it for me! I love it!

A sample from our session!! I LOVE being pregnant :)!!!

My big seven month Baby bump! Mommy Cannot wait to meet you Jax Holden!
