More Pictures for Kade :)

My little nephew Kade asked for more pictures of Kailin and I would love to post more so Kade this is for you. We are excited for you to meet her in a week :) I will take some more pictures today and add them to the slide show. Enjoy!

10 Reasons why I love this girl!!!

1. She makes the funniest faces from a sad pouty look to beautiful big smiles.
2. She puts her fist up by her face when she sleeps.
3. She puts both fists by her face when she eats.
4. When eating and she seems to have fallen asleep I say "Kailin are you sleeping" and she will look at me with one eye open, as if to say " seriously mommy?"
5. She will look all around when she hears my voice but I love even more when she looks after she hears her Daddy's voice.
6. She has a lot of her Daddys physical characterstics which I love.
7. She is adorable and puts up with all of my hugs and kisses and she loved kisses from Grandma when she was here too.
8. She is wide awake when I change her diaper and jabbers a lot.
9. Sometimes when she gets upset she snorts and grunts :)
10. She loves Daddy singing to her. Last night it was songs from Les Mis.

These are only a few reasons but I wanted to share them because I love her more and more every second. Here are some stats from her first Doctors Appt when she was 4 Days old.

The Nursery

It is finally done!! Well for now at least. I am a pretty indecisive person and even worse being pregnant. I decided I was going to make the bedding right from the start and I'm happy with how it turned out. I made the blanket(with my moms help), curtains and bed skirt. My friend Tamalin was nice enough to help me with the vinyl lettering, and the butterflies came from Sharon(my mother in law). Thanks for everyone who helped my design come together :).

In case you didn't know the name we selected it is Kailin Taylor Shannon.

My friend Jolene made me this adorable picture frame which matches my theme of Bugs and Flowers perfectly.

The 3-D blanket, the flowers and bugs are all padded and stick out.



The curtains

The butterflies

This was probably one of the bigger projects, I bought this dresser off of craigslist and it was oak colored. We found some Cherry spray paint at Michaels and Craig was nice enough to help me spray paint this.


We are excited for our little girl to come, I am almost 38 weeks and feeling more uncomfortable every day. I am now done with all of my projects(or at least the ones I remember). Its a good thing Craig doesn't get too frustrated with my love of projects(its a stewart thing I guess).
