A Sticky Situation

I've slowly been trying to cook my way through my unfamiliar cookbooks. Baking has not been my strong point in the past so i was not sure how my sticky buns would turn out. To my surprise, shock, and excitement...I CAN BAKE! I was so proud of myself I thought I deserved to have the middle one. (Everyone knows the middle bun is the best) They tasted Delicious.

I managed to make myself sick after i scraped all 3 pans of their sticky goodness. I've learned my lesson, Next time ill just eat the 1 pan.

Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year. Finding Costumes was easier than i thought for Josh and Shayla's Halloween party. I went as a Pregnant Skeleton and Levi went as a dead zombie. We had a ton of fun and ate an uncomfortable amount of food.....as usual.

Levi and Josh make a good team in rock band. I usually feel bad for not wanting to play but with Josh looking especially feminine i thought it would make up for my lack of participation.

This would be our scary Halloween faces. How terrifying!

Levi did an amazing job with painting out our baby. It was almost cute looking...almost.

Feeling poetic!

We are excited about something new,

Its leather,brown, and comfy too!

And now we are proud to loudly say...

WE GOT A NEW COUCH, AND IT'S ON ITS WAY!

Slowly plugging along!

Woohoo! Progress on the baby room, how exciting! The bedskirt is now complete to match the curtains, which is looking super adorable. Then i have pretty much completed the babies quilt. The ruffle around the edges was a nightmare to do and took forever, but as you can see it defiantly pays off. Our baby room has slowly turned into our favorite pride and joy...and it's not even finished yet!!

This would be my favorite before and after project. Unfortunatly we don't have a before picture. This dresser was on its way to the dump but my mom and I rescued it with lots of sanding, cleaning, and really thick paint! It really has turned into quite the perfect baby dresser and looks great in the room.

Kiss the Cook

I'm happy to announce i've figured out Levi's hidden tallent. He is the most amazing cook, and i hope to milk it for all its worth. I got a new crockpot from my cooking class and it works wonderfully. Levi made chicken and dumpling stew to break it in. It tasted great and the left overs tasted even better. Lucky lucky me.

Prenatal classes

Well this weekend was booked off for prenatal classes, what a treat! We dressed in our comfortable clothes and got our two pillows ready as instructed. Not really sure why they needed the pillows for teaching purposes, so i sat on them on the chairs for extra padding. During our prenatal classes we realized we were by far the youngest ones there which was apparent by not just our age. We got the giggles a couple of times and who would have thought old pregnant people were so serious! But who knows...maybe they are the normal ones and we are just two silly goons.

"Nesting"

We are realizing how great having a two bedroom place really is and are so glad that we have moved. The "nesting" process is going great...for the BOTH of us. Levi got to pick the colors of the walls for the baby room, and did a fantastic job with painting the room. The green is looking great with the bedding i am making with my mom. We still have quite a bit to do to get the baby room ready but i thought i would give you all a sneak peak. I made the brown poke-a-dot curtain and will be using the same fabric for the dust ruffle around the crib. Then the bumper pads are going to be dark brown big bows and a green ruffle. So throw in the baby quilt i am making to match the whole shabam and WA LA, Emery's room! exciting! exciting! exciting!
