My baby's room (w/ lotsa pics)

The bf and I finally got around to finishing up the painting and the arranging of baby Jason's room.  With only about two more weeks to goooo in the pregnancy(:O), we are preparing and have been fixing up his room and finished painting it yesterday.  Here's some pics from when we started up until the finish.  I hope he loves his room, his mommy and daddy worked hard on it.

 Before we started, this room was a "storage" type of room


 We had actually painted the walls yellow, then decided to go with this blue.  I heard somewhere that yellow paint for baby nursery is too much for them and it makes them be more whiny and cry more.  Don't know for sure if it's true, I just didn't like the yellow(too bright).


The circles I painted in his room.  I love them.

 My love painting the walls.







 The gifts on the floor and the bassinet were from the baby shower my mom and sisters threw for me.

His baby bedding set up, his crib, and his bassinet (all gifted by my mom)


I also need to get him his changing table.

He is still missing his letters for his name.  I'm thinking right above where the gifts are in the middle would be a good place to put them up on.

He will be with us in our room for the first few months and then be living in his own room :)



So what do you all think of his soon-to-be room?  I love it and can't wait till I get to see him  :D

Sick and Pregnant!! ughhh


http://www.myhealthnewsdaily.com/common-pregnancy-myths-0884/2

I can't believe this! I am 36 weeks into my pregnancy and I have been sick for about a week and a half.  I have been coughing and coughing and to no avail, still feeling horrible! I called the doctor and got some meds, hoping they would help subside the cold/flu and it still has not gone away.  I am taking two different medications and not feeling well.  I have drank chamomile tea and also tried honey with lemon tea, rubbing Vicks and still not getting well.

What I'm Loving: Essence nail polish

I recently shopped at my H-E-B store and found these cute nail polishes.  Best part?  They were only a $1.00 each! I got two different colors:

Choose me!


Just rock it!

I loved the way these polishes went on my nails. I was suprised at how quickly they dried up (it does say on the bottle "quick dry nail polish")  so it makes sense lol  I did a combination of these two and this is how they looked:
Just rock it! by itself
This one is adding Choose Me! over Just rock it!


What do you think? Have you tried these?

EOS lip balm

I just purchased an EOS lip balm at my ULTA and bought the summer fruit one.  It is refreshingly good smelling, yes like fruit, and it goes on smoothly.  To be honest, my lips are very very chapped ALL THE TIME and I tried this today about 2 and a half hours ago and my lips are still moisturized.  That's a really good thing :)  I love the smell and it is very nice product case, cute to look at.  Definitely would purchase again and try some other flavors.
