Summer Projects Begin...

It wouldn't be my summer break without a few projects in mind! So far, I've repainted about a quarter of the base boards in our house. Its amazing how they get so beat up. I should have taken before and after pics of the ones near the front room window that Bax hangs out by. It was practically paintless! Other things on my summer to do list:
  • Lay out when possible
  • Lunch with friends
  • Regular exercise
  • Finish touching up trim in house
  • Purge craft room of things I really don't need to keep
  • Make some of the baby bedding, once we know boy or girl
  • Start decorating the nursery
  • Clean out books (how many coffee table books do we need?!) 
  • Generally de-clutter the house....why do I keep so much crap?!
  • Enjoy the new carpet we are getting installed later this summer!

Here is my latest belly shot:
It really is a little strange to have your belly be growing. I dont' mind it, but its a little weird all the same! My goal is to drinks lots of water and try to limit salt do I don't have too much water retention. Too bad all I am wanting to eat are salty things! I don't mind sweet foods, but I would much rather have something salty or a piece of fruit with a little tang. That combined with my lack of any mornign sickness makes me thing this baby is a boy. I will be completely happy with a baby boy or girl....I am getting a little anxious/excited to find out!
We also celebrated Father's Day this past Sunday. We had a fabulous lunch a Pappadeaux's with Chris, and some tasty dessert at my parents with my dad. Even though this isn't officially Brandon's first Father's Day, I did get him a little gift since he is a dad-to-be. (Yes, it was a little cheesy, but as you know, I love that kind of stuff!)

Can't go wrong with some BBQ sauce, and a fun onesie. I figure since its orange really a boy or girl could wear it...even though it does look a little more boyish.
