So this summer has been eventful. We moved from Tucson and were living with family for a few months and just last month we moved again into a cute house with room enough for our almost 3 kids. Living with family was great but I knew we needed our own space before this little girl gets here! The summer has treated us great so far. We have been swimming a lot and little miss can just about swim solo. Her favorite is to jump off diving boards and swim to the side. For some reason though she does a belly flop 9 out of 10 times. We have just about 4 weeks until we welcome our new baby girl into the family! We are so excited to meet her. Reed has grown into really liking little babies so I'm excited to see how he does with a little sister. We are just about settled in but I have a few more finishing touches I would like to add to baby girls room as well as pictures that need to be put in frames. Some highlights of this summer include Reed turning two.... him and I share a birthday month and we had fun celebrating with family and making him a choo choo train cake.....
this little guy is such a character and such a joy to have in our home (when he's in a good mood). He loves animals and making animal noises. He is a late bloomer when it comes to talking but he will call for momma, dadda, poppy (grandpa), doggy, book, drink, snack, cookie, duck, and plane are the words he says most..... He loves wrestling his dad, cousins, uncles, or grandpas and loves the water and swimming.
little miss Elizabeth had a dance recital over the summer and did great! She is such a doll and turning into my little buddy. She is so helpful and really is a sweet heart. She is so excited to have a sister and tries to help us get ready for her to come in any way she can!
Like I said I have a few things to add to the nursery but here is a picture of her crib and bedding..... I made the bed skirt and the bumper was from Elizabeth as a baby.
Elizabeths room is just about done as well. I want to dark purple tutu to add about her bed but other then that its good. I made her duvet cover..... it is straight but the bed was made crooked this morning :) She is in love with purple so with the move now was the time to change it!
Hopefully I can write more frequently before the baby comes and get in a better habit of posting!

What beautiful people your little ones are growing up to be. We miss you! I think about you every time I drove home and pass your old street. The new rooms look amazing!
It is so good to hear how you guys are! Your kids have gotten so big and EVEN cuter-didn't think that they could get any cuter! You did a great job on Elizabeth's bed-and the cute baby's room...you are one talented woman! Glad your pregnancy is going good and that your sweet littl one will be here soon. Get some rest, 3 is...an adjustment! ;) well worth it though!
everything is looking great! good luck with the new baby!
Thanks for the comment on my blog! I miss you, too! I have been thinking about you a lot lately and I was so happy to hear an update on you & the kids. Elizabeth looks darling as ever and that Reed boy is GROWING!!! Can't wait to see pictures of your baby girl. I can't believe you are almost due! That went by fast (well maybe not for you :) We would love to see you guys. I will let you know when we come up again.
So good to see your blog. We miss you guys. Just the other day I was wondering when you were due. Your as busy as ever, the rooms look fantastic of course!!!
Hope all else is well.
Very very cute bedding Karla. I made Scarlett's crib bedding and it took forever. Hope you guys are doing good. I'm sure you're loving being back in Mesa.
Such cute work!
We leave for part of the summer and you guys decide to move. Glad you could get your own space though. I'll have to keep checking back for baby updates.
