Ok so... if you couldn't already tell, I am LOVING this camera Josh got me for my birthday!! The pictures are so much clearer and I just want to document everything now so...prepare for photo overload. lol 

This week we have just been crazy busy trying to prepare for our move on Tuesday. I'm going back to my hometown tonight to pack up the rest of my stuff at my parent's and spend some time with friends and family. Then I'll be back tomorrow night and Tuesday morning we move in! I can't wait! 

Trying to find bedding I like for the baby's room is turning out to be much more difficult than I thought. I think it's because Joshua and I are both so picky. Neither of us want the forest animal characters in his room to be cutesie or cartoon-ish, but trying to find baby stuff that ISN'T cutesie or cartoonish is impossible. So... I have enlisted my mother to help me make it myself! It will be really fun to spend some time with her and to learn how to sew because that is one skill I have yet to master.

A friend of mine from high school, Jessica Holly, is an artist and I asked her to sketch me some pictures for the baby's room. She did an absolutely AMAZING job!!! I love them SO much! I am so blessed to have such talented friends. :-)

Joshua took Lakota to the farm last weekend and got some really great shots of him with the new camera. This one is my favorite. He looks like a wolf!

Fender and I tried to do a photo-shoot for the blog to get some good baby-belly pictures, but most of them just entailed a lot of puppy kisses.
