Second Child

Well, we all know I have never been the best about keeping up to date with my blog.  But add pregnancy brain, followed by an actual baby, and I am pretty much like 'what blog?'.  Poor Jude, he is already getting the short end of the stick as the second child. 

So I figured I could just try to rewind a few months and catch up on everything you've missed.  Hopefully I can start catching up so Jude won't feel totally neglected! 

First off, I don't think I had a single belly pic posted.  With Bella I had about 27, so I figured at least one was in order.  This is me at like 8 and 3/4 months.

Here are a few pictures of Jude's nursery.  Believe it or not, I have planned to write this blog for a while so these pictures were taken before he was born.  So the nursery isn't totally done in these pics, but you get the idea!

We went with an elephant theme so we got these cute wall decals to start.

My awesome friend Jessica made me these cute pictures with little elephant cut outs.  Did I mention she had a three month old at the time she made these?  No idea when she had the time, but she totally rocks.

Got these cute little pictures on Etsy to go on each side of the window.

Another Etsy purchase.  There is so much cute stuff on there!!

Here is a shot with the book shelves mostly set up.  We basically moved all of Bella's old furniture in to Jude's room for him and got her all new stuff.  One of these days I will show all her new stuff!  Got to get her room done first.  I can at least say we got Jude's room totally done now!

Here is a bigger view of the room.  I have now spent many night time hours in that rocking chair.  It reminds me so much of when Bella was a baby and rocking her in the same chair.  I don't know if it is because I know it is the last time I will do it, or maybe because Jason takes turns with me this time so I am not 100% exhausted all the time, but I hardly even mind getting up and rocking that sweet little baby back to sleep.

Well that is it for now.  I would say from now on I will do better about writing, but I mean who am I kidding?  I have two children now.  I have trouble remembering if I have brushed my teeth in a day, so we'll just have to see.
