Nursery Reveal

I finally got around to taking pictures of the entire nursery.

 I have been posting them here and there on instagram and facebook with my phone,

 but I haven't actually taken real pictures of them. 

I am still adjusting to my new camera as well, so bare with me!;) 

I will try and give information (because I know those of you who are searching

for inspiration like to know where things are from!:) 

Enjoy the pics!

Banner made by Kelsey Carl at my first shower;)

I loved it so much!

This is in the closet on the wall under the clothes;)

And with that, I will end the pictures:) Such a great phrase!

Hayden's Bday & 28 Weeks!

Hayden's 2nd Birthday Party!!

The theme was pirates, she did such a cute job with the decorations;) 

Lots of fun in the pool with the family!!

Gabe, Grace and Jayce:

this party was the same day as my first shower I just blogged about

that was at the Carl's house. The birthday party was at 3, so we had a little

downtime in between;)

Jordan loves to grill;)

 waitin' on the burgers:

cute couple!!

Nana and Hayden:

Jordan with Lileigh: 

Beautiful momma's!!

 

Grace is looking so grown up;)

 This was Jordan's first time to meet Jackson who's almost a year old:) 

He was having some fun playing with him in the pool.

Present time!! Playing with his new gifts!

 

Blowing out his candles!!

The next morning we headed back to Austin. We were bummed we had to miss

Peyton's 9th Birthday party the next day!! 

Here is a picture of how grown up he is!!

28 WEEKS:

I can't believe I'm  7 months pregnant!! That seems like its getting so close.

At this point I'm still feeling good, and growing, feeling lots of kicks

and excited about how the nursery is coming along;)

I got some fabric to make burp cloths, receiving blankets and a quilt for Conrad:)

So very excited about the vinyl wall decals that came in this week for Conrad's nursery!

I can't wait to put them up!!!

I got them off etsy, and I am very impressed at the quality.

Jordan is still loving surgery, but ready for a new schedule, this one is wearing him out;)

He pretty much looks like this when he comes home...

That weekend we finally took advantage of our community pool!

It was nice to go up there for a couple hours and swim around/enjoy the sun:

I've been busy writing thank you notes from the shower last week.

I love the colors and design Whitney helped me with:) 

I also enjoy using the new stamp I made for us, mainly because

we've always been "Jordan and Rachel Carl" and now I have one that

says: "The Carl Family" :)

Can't wait to send them out!!

That's all for 28 weeks!

I was supposed to go to the doctor this week, 

but I pushed it to next week...

Thanks for reading:)

1st Baby Shower for Conrad

On July 28th, I had my first baby shower for little C :) 

It was so exciting, like Christmas!

It was held in Dallas, at the Carl's home:

Super cute decorations at the shower, esp this banner-which is now in his nursery!

Loved the invitations;)

 

These were my lovely hostesses!!

"Soon to be" Aunt Kelsey, Aunt Emma and Aunt Becca:)

fun decor everywhere!

little favor jars with candy inside for everyone to take:)

Opening gifts:

 

We were a fan of this one! Little Air Force outfit for when he's a little bigger!!

Like daddy, like mommy: 

I got tons of cute stuff for bath time!! This precious robe, towels, the infant tub and more!

Sweet little outfits:

lots of lovely hats, and socks as well:

Another one of my favorite gifts. This frame makes me tear up 

when I look at it-couldn't be more perfect.

It went straight up in his room with some sono pics:)

Conrad got sweet blankets made by both Grandmothers on Jordan's side

I forgot to take a picture of my "shower spread" of everything together, but we got tons of great stuff, the bumbo seat, car seat caddy stroller, gift cards, his bedding items,

the bassinet, some fun games for him, clothes and more! It was such a blessing!!

Pictures with some of the guests

Stephanie and Adelle from Lakeview!

Precious preggo friend! Lauren's having a boy too!!

Cards I made for the hostesses:

 

We could not be more grateful for all the love that was shown to us 

this weekend! A very special thanks again to my sister in laws for hosting:)

 It was beyond a blessing to get so many things that we

needed for Conrad, as well as just getting to celebrate with our friends and 

family the precious miracle that he is;)
