The NuRsErY!!!

Here is what I have spent the last month working on...painting and making crafts for the nursery...Enjoy! Jayden's cute blankieFound these scrapbooks at Ross for like 2-3 bucks a piece! :) So excited to fill them with pictures of my Jayden.So with getting prepped for the nursery we pretty much had to move our whole apartment around. We made it work and fit though and I think we made it look pretty good. :)The toy basket I got for 50% off. This will make for a nice n' easy pick up of Jayden's toys and things for company. :)We finally got this couch to fit into the master!....but not before cutting off the back legs and re-boulting them back together. Love my genius hubby though! I love this couch so much!Inside the Nursery!I finally found a fun place for my ceramics I made in 9th grade...at least until he is big enough to start destroying them. ;)I have had this shelf since I was little. I decided to paint it to match the colors I picked for the nursery. Turned out nice and the only money I spent was on the paint.The rug I found for 50% offI love this mirror that I found for a really good deal at Ross. So fun when the light hits it and dances off of it.We gave in and bought a mobile because we loved that it had the heartbeat, nature, and musical sound settings and the moving picture projection it displays on the bottom of the mobile...only downside, is the colors displayed on the box were no where near the colors it really was, so I took the ruffle off and made my own version. I painted it to match the picture frames I made and found my own decorations to hang from bows instead. Turned out pretty good. :)

The cute 3-D stars I found at Michael's that I painted to match the rest of the decor. The walls really needed some color and dimension. I only wish we could paint it...one day. :)The cute bedding set I found on sale @ Wal-mart. I LOVE it! It matches my colors and jungle animal theme perfectly!

Spring...sort of...

Snow, snow and more snow. It has been such a long winter! The first snow was 7 months ago. This was April 30th-our last snow storm-hopefully. :)Cute little family of geese...one of the first spring looking sights of the year.The rocker glider came the same day as my bump! :) I put it together by myself! :) I felt so handy!Lots and lots of painting last month...all the while in a well venitilated room of course, snow and all.Nursery decorations I painted for the nursery. :) Turned out really well (if I don't say so myself). We saved a lot of money with me making them too.Snow at the end of April...seriously?Date Night!;)Well we found our girls a new home and we both cried, but it is best with Jayden on the way. :)Hanging out with a Alyssa for a fun girl's day. We topped off the day with an amazing Relief Society meeting that focused on the life of Christ. It was so spiritually uplifting!

It's a BOY!!! :)

Meet Jayden Benjamin Ostler! We cannot wait to meet and hold our little man. We love you so much already little buddy. :)

So precious with his little hand by his face. That is my son! I am gonna be a mommy!!! :) I can't wait to enjoy life with my two guys! :)


It was so touching and precious watching him move around on the screen. I love this pic they captured of his adorable little feet. Don't you just love those little piggys? :)
Jayden really wanted to let all of us (including me) that thought he was for sure a girl know that he is in fact 100% BOY and proud of it!
My little Jayden again. :)
Ben and I just after finding out we were going to be parents of a son! :) I was so surprised but I could not be more thrilled! I got the little boy I wanted. We will get Ben his little daddy's girl later. :) Can't wait to hang out with my little mama's boy! :)
