Special Sleepover

With my due date fast approaching, the girls got to have a very special sleepover at Auntie Kara & Uncle Frank's house this past weekend so Kyle & I could prepare the nursery.  While the girls were in Auntie Kara's loving care running through sprinklers with Sydney & Ava, picking wild raspberries, eating popsicles, grilling out with Uncle Frank, visiting the farm with Grandma & Grandpa A, and eating s'mores around the campfire, I had Kyle up to his ears in putting things together!  

We were both up til midnight on Saturday hanging room darkening curtains, banging together a new dresser, putting the girls' old crib back together, etc. And were up bright and early on Sunday to quickly finish up before meeting back up with the girls.  We also had the special project of putting together a 'big kid' room for Piper, as she still sleeps in the crib-turned-toddler-bed, and making a new office/craft area as the office space is now the nursery. Just like we did for Hadley's birthday last year, we redecorated Piper's room and added a big twin sized bed for the almost 4 year old!  While Hadley had requested pink, purple & blue butterflies for her birthday room, Piper wanted a yellow & orange frog bedroom.  When asked what her new room looks like, she is always quick to add, "Not real frogs though."  To which I am never quite sure if she is happy or sad about! 

SO excited to be going on their sleepover!  Even Piper, who's never been over night without us!

With Auntie Kara  - Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a special weekend!!!

















I am happy to report that the nesting, er I mean rearranging & redecorating is nearly complete and looks wonderful.  The frog bedroom was an absolute hit, as well as the new craft area.  Now if the baby could just wait to come until after the Summer Olympics are over (so I can watch & enjoy them this time, unlike last time when Piper was born on opening day) We Are Ready!
