Stretch marks? nope
Sleep: Up at least 2-3 times a night, starting to feel for James because he is a very light sleeper.

Best moment of the week: Got most of the garden planted today. Hoping to grow a bunch of veggies to make my own baby food.

Belly Button in or out? In, but getting really close to being flat.

Happy or Moody most of the time: Definitely feeling the mood swings and emotions more lately. Had to take my chocolate lab to the vet and she had to stay the night and I was very emotional the entire time she was gone. (She is feeling better now)
Looking forward to: Our trip to AZ, it's coming so fast, I  can't believe it's all most May. WOW time has been flying.

 

Crib bedding

So I have been working hard on making my own crib bedding. I've just about got it done so here is a peak at some of what I have been working on.
The Pillow I made for my rocker, but haven't ordered it yet so for now it's in the crib. The bumpers I recovered from a set I got for .25 and the crib sheet I  made out of flannel. I still have a lot to do, but it's starting to come together.
