Painting

Painting began on the little peanut's room. Why you might ask?! 7 months till my due date. haha Well I'm crazy...no right now the room is bare and we are getting the dresser this week so why do it when things are in the way. Made the job much easier! I love the color we picked, Lovely Buff! Gender neutral and really brightens the room from the old gray walls.
Used Lowe's Paint plus Primer paint and only took 2 coats to cover that bad boy! Amazing since we went from such a dark color to light. See the corner where the tree is going?! Let me tell you I used the ENTIRE gallon. Scrapping the can to finish some touch ups. Haha Love it!

Aiden now walks by the room and says "Baby." Smart kid.

Me and Erica will probably tackle the tree in a few months. We are pretty busy the beginning of this summer. 44 days till my Florida vacation with my family. Ahhhh can't wait!!! So need a break. It will be fun to see how Aiden reacts to the beach this year. Then next on the agenda is Brit's shower. Me and Erica created the cutest invite. I adore the insert (although we can't take credit for the cute poem).


The attacks of the mosquitoes have returned. Aiden has 3 bites! 2 on the same arm and 1 on his leg, which all got blisters and popped. His poor leg is so swollen. So now he goes to school all bandaged up with me constantly saying "We don't touch Boo Boos. No touchy! No Aiden! Leave it alone or it will never heal! Boo Boo, no touch!" Which he looks at me puzzled says "Boo Boo! and still tries to peak under the bandage. Ugh! This kid knows there is a band aid underneath and it is his mission in life to rip those suckers off. So we've had quite a few meltdowns over the past couple of days, because he wants to stratch them so bad. Every night we are taking oatmeal baths to relieve some pain.

Since I am a planner and I was SO late sending out Aiden's birth announcements I wanted to be on my game this year. (I think I sent his out at like 3 months...maybe 4 haha) I am going with magnets again because I love it! I have one on my fridge and one on my filing cabinet at work. So much better than the paper ones that go right in the trash. I'm ordering from the same company EInvite because I get % off being an IP employee! Score! Saves me like $20 bucks!  Below are my choices. I think it would be cute to do the opposite of Aiden's if it's a girl. But I have a feeling this one is a boy.
