Progress...

Well, I wish I had a lot to say about the progress of shifting around our house and getting it more organized since we got our shed and for when Tyler arrives buuuut we have done a few things.

First and foremost the reason for lack of progress is because my wonderful husband has been working a lot lately (JK....we both have been putting it off) and there is no way for me move anything or do a whole lot now that I am 30 weeks preggo (wow, time flies!). Which leaves us to 2 months before Tyler is here and I'm starting to realize that we need to get a move on.  Next week, we will be visiting my family in Myrtle Beach for our birthdays and then the following week, Sean will be visiting his family out in California which leaves us about 6 weeks left and on top of that working around his schedule.  Ahhh!  Priority numero uno  is to have another yard sale. This will eliminate so much extra furniture that we have going on in the house. Here is an example of what I’m talking about in our playroom/4th room:



As you can see, the chaise and the middle desk we are going to get rid of to make some more room.



I'm going to get one of those 8 or 10 cubed storage things from IKEA to clear this area up.

Belly shot!  Just threw this one in there!  haha.

We decided to get a new couch with a pull out bed because the guest room is now going to be Tyler’s room.  So if anyone comes to visit and wants to stay at the house at least they have a Queen pull out couch. It won’t be as comfy but hey, it works! We are going to hang the TV on the wall too because I can see the TV on the book stand being an issue here in the next few months with Hunter. Other than that I love this room because its Hunter (and Tyler’s) playroom and I have all of my toys out of the living room.  Finally!  Hunter still has his room with some too but I mostly see his room being a place for all of his books and other little things. I don't want it to be another playroom for when he gets a big boy bed.  I'm nervous about him getting out of the bed to go play...haha.

As for Tyler’s room aka guest room right now.  I will spare you photos of this.  Its an absolute disaster.  Well, ok, here you go. I may as well take a before photo and then when its done I can show the after photo.  (I only took one photo because you get the point..haha): 

LOL!  Mess!  Once the bed is out of there and Sean finishes the shelving in the closet things will start looking more like a nursery.  (As for that suitcase..thats for next weeks Myrtle Beach trip).

Sean has managed to get all of Hunter’s old clothes down from the attic (0-9 months) so that I can go ahead and wash and get them ready to put into the dresser.  Actually that’s another thing, I can’t put them in the dresser because the one Tyler will use will be Hunter’s old one that he has in his room and we will give Hunter the one that is with the guest furniture!  We are literally switching all the furniture except for one of Hunter’s cubed bookcases into Tyler’s room.  Its time for a big boy room!  I have been wanting and somewhat debating when to get Hunter in his big boy bed but since I don’t really have room to get Hunter’s crib into Tyler’s room because of all the other stuff,  another reason why I can't do anything until we have the yard sale to get rid of stuff.  Which will definitely be before he is 2.  We are selling the guest bed.  I really don’t see us using it anytime soon so what’s the point of keeping it?   I have been posting stuff on craigslist and haven’t been quite as successful that I thought we would be (it wasn’t the price, because I listed everything more than reasonable).  They’re a lot of work but hopefully it will solve our space and shifting around issue in the house because this momma is starting to nest!

In the meantime, I’ve been getting photos and videos organized with Hunter to make for his one-year Shutterfly book to get that out of the way because Hunter has a birthday just about 2 months away!  Awwwww!!!  Can’t believe my little guy is growing up and he's going to be 2 already!  I have managed to go ahead and get a few of his birthday theme stuff so that when I’m literally 40 weeks preggo on his big day, I won’t stress.  Yeah, I don’t even want to think about the fact that they are going to celebrate birthday’s 4 days apart (according to my due date) so I’ve been pretending that Tyler will be coming way before. Haha. We’ll see.

As for talking so great how my pregnancy has been going in my last blog, yeah, I think I jinkxed myself on that one.  I ended up having to go to the hospital last week because I was having such horrible indigestion and heartburn that for 2 days I was throwing up and couldn't hardly eat anything.  My doctor had me go to the ER/hospital to make sure that Tyler was ok and to get some blood drawn and test my levels.  Turns out the baby was perfectly fine (no contractions) and they gave me an IV because I was pretty dehydrated along with some Zofran (anti naseau medicine) to keep me from getting sick and to be able to eat.  Soon after, I was starving and was ready to eat a buffet!  I was so hungry!  So, I ordered food from the hospital and they had me wait awhile afterwards to see how I felt.  I was there for about 5 hours and when I left, I felt soooooo much better.  They gave me a prescription for the Zofran for whenever I feel sick like that again and it's been working.  By the way, I have to eat way smaller meals, super bland stuff and I have to eat well before going to bed at night (like 5:30 when I get home) or else the indigestion wakes me up at night and I can end up getting sick later that morning.  Ugh...so anyway, its all worth it for this little guy and according to all those wives tales about having heartburn while pregnant, Tyler better have a full head of hair!!! My doctor tells me that most likely this won't ease up until he is born so I'm just managing it in the meantime.

 

 

Here's the nurse poking me to get the IV in me.

So, a little more than 2 months and we will have a new addition to the house.  Now I need to get a move on and get things ready!
