20 weeks- It's a Girl!!

Cravings:  Not craving anything.  I am hungry for small meals most of the day.

Energy:    Feeling great!  This second trimester is better than the first! 

Weight Gain: I lost 3 pounds when I started, so I am back to my original weight now.

Baby Movement: Lots of movement.  Feels weird when I am driving for trying to fall alseep.  I love to feel it when I am sitting at my computer or watching tv. 

Surprises?:  My skin feels great!  Maybe from all the water I have been drinking?  I thought I would have gained more weight by now, I am sure it will be here soon.  

To Do: Continue working on the registry! So many choices to pick from!

Take me out Tuesday- Check one off the bucket list- Frozen Hot Chocolate

Last week my husband and I were in Vegas for a wedding.  I have always wanted to try the frozen hot chocolate at serendipity, and I finally got to have it!  The drink was creamy, chocolaty, and delicious!  I usually get one of these at DQ but it is not the same.  So while we were there I had 2! 

Has anyone else had a frozen hot chocolate from serendipity? You can buy some of the mix in a take home canister.  What a great gift idea for any girl!!

18 Weeks Pregnant

Baby Movement: Sometimes I feel little movement.  I am ready for some more! Bring it on!

Surprises?:  Ready to find out the gender! 

To Do: Prepare for the ultrasound.

4 Steps to Update Your Bathroom Vanity

When we moved into our house, we did many updating projects.  The upstairs bathroom wasn't on the list.  Well now it is finished.  This entire project cost about $400 but I think it was a big change.  I finally can brush my teeth at a granite counter top every morning!  I hope you enjoy the changes!

Step 1. We started by painting the walls tan, the trim white, and adding a new mirror and light fixture. 

Step 2. We also added laminate tile squares to the floor. As you see just adding new hardware to the cabinet did not do much for this cabinet. 

Step 3. Here I sanded off the finish, added wood puddy to a couple holes, and took off the doors to be painted separately. 

Step 4. I then painted the cabinet.  (We have hated this green countertop since we moved in!)

Here we bought the granite counter top, needed to move out the cabinet a little to fit the new sink, and finished the project.  We are very happy with how it turned out.  No more green!! I also realize that my husband could do some light pluming! Sherwin Williams Utterly Beige Paint
