My 1st baby shower.. what FUN!

My dearest friends put on quite the celebration! It looked like something off the pages of Pottery barn...

Thank you Sarah for opening up your home and dressing it up so lovely!

You sure know how to make a pregnant momma feel special!

..and THANK YOU friends for your extreme thoughtfulness

:HOME MAKEOVER CHALLENGE:

1- Utility Room

3- Bedrooms

2- Hallways (NOT PICTURED-who wants to look at a hallway?!)

There are minimal 'before' pictures because well, they were not so fun to look at- but here are the final result!

Utility Room:

Official Baby {Caleb's} Room

 Guest Suite

-Master-



Besides growing a baby I've been spending my days updating our home. What do you think? Those of you that have seen the "before" are probably pretty amazed.

In the next couple of days or so I will be updating my other blog T.H.R.I.F.T.Y mademoiselle with all the good deals I found to make these makeovers come true. Hope to catch all your feed back!
-And I'm open to suggestions, so help a girl out if you have decorating tips!

Mystery of the missing blogger...

I know I have been a horrible blogger lately- but I have a really good excuse- (or so I hope, you think so!)

Look what I've been cooking up-

Yes, those are really pictures of how BIG my belly is getting!! Compared to this (old post)
