Eli's Nursery

Eli's nursery is done! I started a while ago and recently put the finishing touches on it. I wanted the theme to be owls and lots of shades of greens and blues. I really loved the way it turned out. Thank you to Marye for the owl canvas picture she made and to Lizzie, my cousin, for the three owl frames and pictures. Those pictures were my inspiration.

Graduation Season

A couple weeks ago we went to a Graduation party for Scott's brother, Clint, and brother-in-law, Karl. It was so fun getting together with the Collins clan. Lucy loved seeing her cousins and being outside in the sunshine. Congratulations Karl and Clint!!

Aquarium with K & P

We just love hanging out with these two! Porter and Lucy loved running around the aquarium and looking and touching everything. They are quite a handful though, bring on the terrible twos!

Birthday Blessings

My birthday was so great this year! It was very low key, but I loved every minute. Somehow my birthday celebration lasts like a week, I'm not complaining! We celebrated on with family on Easter and on my actual birthday Scott & I got to enjoy a glorious dinner alone at the Olive Garden, thanks to Deb and Karl who watched Lucy for us! Scott always manages to make me feel so special. Scott decorated the house with balloon, streamers and signs. When I showed Lucy she loved it! She totally thought it was for her, it was adorable! My friends and family spoiled me a ton too. I received so many thoughtful and sweet gifts. Marye took me out to lunch and we enjoyed a day of shopping. As you can see I'm getting rather large and I don't feel like taking pictures, so that is why there aren't many in this post. 32 Weeks

35 Weeks

Kristen's birthday is in April too so we enjoyed breakfast and shopping to celebrate both of our birthdays.

Baby Shower for Eli

I feel so blessed to have such incredible friends and family in my life. My good friend, Caroline, orchestrated a baby shower for me along with Kristen, Marye, Kendra, Jess and Mom. The decorations and food were amazing! We received so many wonderful gifts and I truly feel so lucky!!

Easter

Our Easter this year was awesome! Lucy got the concept of collecting eggs very quickly and she loved it! We went to two Easter Egg hunts on Saturday at local parks and it was really fun watching Lucy get eggs and look inside for treats. On Sunday Lucy loved her basket from the Easter bunny. She especially liked her baby Cinderella doll, she is such a girly girl. Later, we had Lisa & Brady, Deb & Karl and Jess & Addy over. We had a delicious dinner and yet another egg hunt. We definitely had a wonderful Easter this year!
