July 2017

July consisted of a lot of waiting for baby and trying to enjoy the last few days/weeks as a family of 3. Not going to lie, Mama was VERY impatient and probably more than a little bit cranky throughout most of the month but we managed to have some fun and laughs in the midst of it all. :)

Brinley played in her room for an hour in the morning while Matt and I slept in. But this was the resulting mess. Was it worth it?!?! :)
Very pregnant over the 4th of July!
Matt's sympathy belly



Daddy signed up to work 4th of July for the extra money so Brinley and I brought him lunch




HOT parade!

Exploring the caterpillars at her new school, Four Square!



I tried EVERYTHING to get this baby to come. Including eating tons of pineapple! Lets just say I was certainly regular after that!

Story time with Uncle Mattie at the cousins sleepover

Early morning snap chat fun!

 

Finally go the baby's room done!



Patriotic girls in their red, white and blue. So blessed to have had this family in our lives these past 2 1/2 years!



Every time we go to the zoo, Brinley loves sitting on her wolf friend! Mommy and Brinley had a zoo date before this new little one comes. So fun!
Kangaroo exhibit!


The camel ride was Brinley's favorite part!
Driving the jeep!
Camel ride part two!
Checking out to make baby L is okay as Mommy had been having some complications!


Fun at her new school, four square! They take lots of awesome pics!











This was my go-to lunch at work while pregnant. I ate it almost every day I was in the office!

My last day in the office!



Date night to Olive Garden!

Right when we got home from our "date" Brinley tipped her chair over and split her head open. She was really brave though! It was super funny though, after she got her staples in she looked around at every person in the room and pointed at them shouting "you're mean and you're mean." She shamed everyone, it was hilarious!
Her wolf! Visiting the zoo with the cousins!



 









Ice cream at the mall with the cousins!









Ugg eats soup out of a can!

Love this pic of the girls with Miss Raquel!

And ended the month with my HUGE feet and the fact that I'm so ready to be done being pregnant. Come on little baby!!!
