Merry Christmas and 26th Birthday

Me at 24 weeks and 2 days:


My 26th birthday cake:

The last piece for our Xmas Tree

I had to go all over town to find this kiosk:

And to top it off it was super hard to find a guy with blonde hair and girl with brown/black hair. Thank you co-worker for the great idea. Sorry I stole it... it was to much to pass up!

Progression of Bump

The day we found out I was pregnant (about 4 weeks):

12/13 weeks:

2o weeks (half way there!):

It was funny when Mr. B took this photo, he was like "I didn't realize you were getting so big... holy s**t its getting more real now."

Happy Thanksgiving!

20 weeks pregnant and Mrs. B cooked up a storm. She even made a turkey breast that is an abomination to God.





Here it is.... bacon wrapped turkey breast:



For once Mr. B. is excited about turkey:

Its a ...................

BOY

and we found it at the first try!

Dont know till Nov. 16th!

My little Yin Yang Storm Trooper

BB is strong and healthy at 14.5 weeks. On Tuesday Nov. 16th is the big U/S! Then we can find out if BB is a boy or girl. At first I was all team girl but lately i been saying "He this and he that...." Is it a sign? who knows....

I dont know why but BB looks like a storm trooper.

Being the best Grandparents already

Guess what my parents bought for BB already?

Baby furniture set! There are 3 pieces: crib that grows with the kid, changing table that doubles as a dresser, and taller dresser.








Now we just have to put it together. And if you know Mr. B you know we are all in for a treat :)

No words needed...

Chewies

1 box brown sugar (1 lb.)
1 stick margarine, melted
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup pecans

Mix together well and bake for 25-30 minutes at 325 degrees.

Room Decorating at Work

I guess every year we re-decorate the conference rooms at work. My team was assigned to the Monte Carlo room. It wasn't too pretty. Orange walls with gold and painted brick with random junk that didn't match the room. After 3 days of constant labor and a little help with a couple team members this is the final outcome!

Before:


The new Monte Carlo Conference Room. Theme is clean/crisp 1950's pin up. Classy and stylish with a little of HR approved naughtiness. Total Cost: $170
















A couple weeks later I found this really cool wall sticker. It was a good add to the wall because I felt it was missing something.....

Mommy look what I made!

i found a neat video on monkeysee.com to make no sew curtains. Here is my first try with the kitchen. I want to make another one for the laundry room. If that curtain looks better I am going to swap the two. The windows are the same size so it will be easy to do.

I love the fabric so much I hope the other fabric store has it in stock. The one I went to I bought the last of it.
