Hospital Bag List // Infanteenie Beenie

March 12, 2015

Rose Bow Hat: Infanteenie Beenie here
Flower Hat: Infanteenie Beenie here

This week, I started pulling a few items from baby girl’s closet that I know I want to take with us to the hospital. I learned a lot about how and what to pack in your hospital bag with Hampton. For example, we didn’t need 3 swaddle blankets or 5 onesies. The hospital supplies so many things for you. For her, I knew that I wanted to pack one swaddle, a couple of burp cloths, her going home outfit, lovey fox and her adorable hospital hats from Infanteenie Beenie!

Are they not the most precious things you have ever seen? In the hospital, they give you the typical blue and pink striped hat, but I want my little girl to have a special hat with a little added bling of her own. I discovered Infanteenie Beenie on Etsy a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with their hats. I only wish I had learned about them before my niece was born. 
They are the only newborn hospital hats with a four seamed round top. They are also made right here in the USA! They have won countless awards and been featured in many magazines and on T.V. shows. They have had several celebrity customers including Kristin Cavellari from The Hills! Swoon! Are any of you fans of The Hills? That was my show back in the day! Needless to say, I’m a bit behind the game on this discovery.

These precious hospital hats are GREAT quality and I can’t wait for little SR to wear them! They would also make excellent gifts for your next baby shower! Be sure to check out Infanteenie Beenie on Etsy, Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram!

32 Week Baby Update // Kandi Daniel Studios

March 6, 2015

baby-girl-clothes

Deer Gown: Kandi Daniel Studios here

Moccasins: Freshly Picked

As I was going through all of our baby girl’s clothes the other day, it hit me that I had not purchased any gowns for her to wear. I put Hampton in gowns every night for the first few months because they made it so easy to change him during the night, and we were doing a lot of that. It hit me immediately that I needed to get some gowns ASAP, so I took to Etsy, of course. I found this adorable little monogrammed antler gown from Kandi Daniel Studios and I knew I had to have it. Not only is the design adorable, but I love the ruffle detail on the sleeves. It is so girly which is a must for our little girl.

By the way, did you catch it? Her initials are SRC! I’ll let you have fun guessing at her name for the next few weeks. 🙂 I’m so excited to share it with everyone. Her middle name is very special to Ryan and me for very different reasons, but we have known since before we got married that we wanted to use it, and her first name just seemed to click with both of us one day. It also goes great with Hampton, so it was a done deal. I am thrilled that we finally settled on a name and I can monogram all. the. things.

newborn-baby-girl-clothes

Kandi Daniel Studios has so many cute tees for brides, moms, and babies, as well as monogrammed shorts, Easter toys and more! She offers a wide variety and everything is so adorable.

Kandi is giving all new customers a 15% discount with code NEW15 with your first order!

Be sure to follow her on Facebook and Instagram!

And now for my weekly bump update!

How Far Along: 32 weeks! Only 8 more to go!

Size of Baby: 3 3/4 lbs.  and 16 1/2 inches long

Gender: Our baby girl! SRC!

Movement: All the time. She has really been keeping me up at night because that is when she moves the most. It’s so sweet, but I’m afraid she is going to be like her big brother and be a night owl.

Sleep: Who needs sleep?

Workouts: This week, I have walked a lot more because it has been so nice outside. I’ve walked about 2 miles a day and I’ve still been completing my TIU workouts with a lot of stretching and yoga thrown in. It has made me feel a lot better when I stretch. 

Maternity Clothes: I’ve been rocking my Nike shorts most of this week. It has been warmer and it has been so nice to wear shorts.

Symptoms: Luckily I haven’t had any more painful Braxton Hicks this week. I’ve been trying to drink lots and lots of water to keep hydrated so I don’t have anymore pain. It has definitely helped.

Cravings/Aversions: Just sweets every now and then. My cravings still haven’t been crazy. I even made it three day in a row this week without any sweets at all. 🙂

Missing Most: Sleep. And my abs. Because they are officially gone. At least for the next couple of months. I am having a really hard time doing any sort of ab workouts now, although I haven’t given up completely yet.

Nursery: I shared a sneak peek at our nursery this week! Did you catch it?

Baby Girl’s Nursery Decor // Blockaholic Boutique

March 2, 2015

nursery-ideas
Blocks c/o Blockaholic Boutique here
Eiffel Tower: Hobby Lobby
Shelf: Target

girl-nursery-ideas

We are officially 2 months (or sooner) away from meeting our baby girl! I have finally organized Hampton’s new room and Baby Girl’s closet, and I have officially started decorating! I know I know, it’s about time. With all the adorable nursery ideas on Pinterest, I just couldn’t decide what to choose. With less than 9 weeks until she arrives, I still have a lot to do around here. It’s times like these that I am very thankful for Etsy. I was so exited to find these adorable baby blocks from Blockaholic Boutique. They are so adorable and GREAT quality. I am loving these blocks for a baby boy. Are they not the cutest? They are real wood, painted and personalized. They can be customized to your specifications. Since we didn’t know our baby girl’s name until just recently – yes, we FINALLY have a name!! – I ordered the blocks to say “bebe Cantrell” instead!

Since we have waited so late to decide on a name, we are going to wait to announce it until she is born, however, you will get a sneak peek at her initials later this week! I’ve got to keep you guessing! 🙂

baby-girl-rooms

I’m so thankful to have finally started decorating her nursery. Luckily, I don’t have much more to do. I have one more shelf to decorate and I need to find something to put over her crib. Other than that, we are all set! I can’t wait to share more details of her nursery with you as I complete it!

Be sure to check out Blockaholic Boutique on Etsy! They have the cutest blocks and nursery decor around!

30 Week Pregnancy Update + Giveaway

February 20, 2015

How Far Along: 30 weeks…as in 3/4 of the way there! I. Can’t. Believe. It.

Size of Baby: 3 lbs. She will be gaining half a pound a week from here on! 

Gender: Our baby girl!

Movement: All the time. She is getting so strong and is constantly jabbing me in the ribs. It isn’t always pleasant, but I love feeling her moving. 

Sleep: Not so great. Hello pregnancy insomnia.

Workouts: This week, I only walked 4 miles and did cardio one other day, but I did do my TIU routines every day. Definitely did a lot more strength than cardio, but it has been way too cold to walk outside, y’all. 

Maternity Clothes: Mostly leggings, although my jeans have been nice to have this week because…brr.

Symptoms: I’ve had horrible Braxton Hicks this week. I think I over did it a couple of days with the exercising/cleaning/organizing/moving furniture around. Yeah, I learned my lesson. I haven’t had them the last couple of days, thank goodness.
Cravings/Aversions: Just sweets every now and then. My cravings haven’t been all that strong this time around, and for that I’m very thankful.

Missing Most: Sleep. Pregnancy insomnia hit me hard this week. It’s not been pleasant.

Nursery: I have officially washed all of baby girl’s clothes, and organized her closet. I just have a few more decorations to order and put together and we will be all set. As far as Hampton’s room, it is all ready to go minus the crib. Once it comes in, we will go ahead and move him into his new big boy room so that he can get used to it before baby arrives! 🙂

And now onto the giveaway!

Five On Friday

February 13, 2015

ONE.
I will be 29 weeks pregnant tomorrow! Nuts! Where is the time going? I finally started organizing this week and we are getting ready to have a huge garage sale in 2 weeks to help us get rid of some of our clutter before baby girl arrives. I have finally started ordering decor for her nursery and Hampton’s big boy room, so I am getting really excited to start decorating and pulling everything together. As far as me? I’m feeling okay. I’m definitely starting to feel larger and have been more uncomfortable, but that is just all part of it! I’m mostly just really excited to meet this sweet baby.

TWO.
Did you check out my Valentine’s Day inspired outfit? You must! Pink Blush sells this in maternity but it can easily be worn as non-maternity. It will definitely be a staple piece for me this spring and summer.

THREE.
You must enter to win this giveaway on my blog! There are only 5 days left to enter, so what are you waiting for?

FOUR.
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day! My mom offered to watch Hamp for us so we can go on a much needed date! I’m so excited I don’t even mind fighting crowds! We have plans to eat an early hibachi dinner! My favorite! What are your plans tomorrow? Are you doing anything romantic?

FIVE.
One of my best friends just moved back to our hometown after being away for several years. To say I’m excited would be an understatement. I have missed her so much and am so thankful for her friendship and the fact that I can see her more often! In honor of her arrival I’m sharing a Flashback Friday picture of us our freshman year of college. Yes, I had terribly dyed hair. You’re welcome. I feel very blessed this week. 🙂

P.S. Check out My Romantic Valentine’s Day Ideas!

I hope you have a lovely Valentine’s Day and weekend!

Linking up here!

Darling Oh Deer

February 10, 2015

baby-girl-ootd
Head wraps c/o: Darling Oh Deer
If you weren’t already aware from this post, I have a slight obsession with Gilmore Girls, so this onesie was a must for our baby girl. I actually asked the shop to personalize this one to say Lorelai and Luke instead of Cory and Topanga, and it has seemed to really take off for her shop which is really exciting!  Until this past week, I had not bought our little girl anything pink. What? Crazy. Needless to say, I was really excited when these head wraps came in from Darling Oh Deer. Are they not perfect? This pink one is reversible with black polka dots on one side and solid pink on the other. I have a feeling she will get a lot of wear out of it. 
baby-head-wraps

 Of course I had to get her a buffalo plaid head wrap for next fall/winter. I mean, she is my daughter. She must have plaid. I also picked her up one of my favorite childhood books this week. Madeline is a classic and is set in my favorite city in the world. Win/win in my book!

These goodies are making me really excited for her arrival. While we are still far from ready as far as her nursery and preparations, we are getting so much closer to playing endless dress up. I. Can’t. Wait. Less than 12 weeks and counting, little one.

27 Week Baby Update

January 30, 2015

27_weeks_pregnant



How far along: 27 weeks tomorrow! Hello 3rd Trimester!

Size of baby: Almost 2 lbs. and 14 1/2 inches!

Gender: Our sweet baby Girl! 


Movement: She is moving all the time! I love being able to physically see her movements now. 


Workouts: I’m still doing to Love Your Body Series and loving it! It has become a little more challenging the last couple of weeks and I have definitely had to modify some of the moves. Planks are getting VERY tough. I have also started just walking. It is driving me kind of crazy because it takes me forever to get my miles in, and I am getting farther and farther behind. I’m trying to walk every day, even if it’s just 1 or 2 miles. 

Sleep: I haven’t slept very well this week thanks to leg cramps. They have been waking me up every night and Ryan laughs at me for downward dogging it in the middle of the night. It does help, though. 

Cravings: This week, all I have wanted is Mexican food. My “cravings” seem to change week to week.

Looking Forward To: The weekend. We are throwing a Super bowl party at our house this Sunday and can’t wait to get together with friends. I’m making a pretty delicious recipe for the party that will be on my blog Monday! Be sure to come check it out and enter to win $15 cash as well!

5 on Friday

January 23, 2015

I haven’t written a good round up post in a while, so I figured I’d join in for 5 on Friday today! TGIF, y’all!

ONE

I can’t believe I will be 26 weeks pregnant tomorrow! This one is going by so quickly. We are getting so excited to meet our sweet girl, but we still have a lot to do to prepare for her arrival. I don’t really have any updates on my pregnancy this week other than I’ve gained another pound. Yay, me! I am so happy to be excelling at something. Ha! 😉

TWO
Today is my sister’s 20th birthday! Happy Birthday, Allymac! I am pretty pumped to celebrate with her tonight!

THREE

Valentines_day_ideas

I am so looking forward to Valentine’s Day this year. Why? Because we don’t get to go out on a date very often, so when we are able to, it is pretty special. Here are some of my favorite Valentine’s Date ideas!

FOUR
I just bought First Frost by Sarah Addison Allen and I can NOT wait to start reading it! What are you reading right now?

FIVE

Hampton will be 15 months tomorrow. Where has the time gone? He is growing up so fast. I can’t wait to share all of the new things he is doing and SAYING because he is starting to say more and more words. I can’t get over it.

I hope you have a lovely weekend!

The Name Game // 25 Weeks

January 16, 2015

25_weeks_pregnant



Well, it’s official! We are only 15 weeks away from having this baby! Time PLEASE slow down?! We can’t wait to meet our baby girl, but there is just one problem. We have no name for her. We thought we were really close to deciding. We had it narrowed down to 2 names, and then we saw a new one we loved a couple of weeks ago and fell in love with it. That was IT! Except then, Monday night, we heard another new name while watching golf (I know, I know) and now we aren’t s sure. Why are we not having twin girls? If I had two girls to name, it would be a done deal by now. Obviously I’m exaggerating slightly, but I mean, really. This is getting so tough. So now, we have 4 names we are trying to decide between. Lawd help us these next few weeks.


How far along: 25 weeks tomorrow!

Size of baby:1 and 1/2 pounds and 13 inches long!

Gender: Our sweet baby Girl! 


Movement: She is moving all the time! 


Workouts: I’m still in full swing of the LYB series! I am still a few miles behind but trying to catch up a little each week. My favorite workout this week was the legs and booty routine. I haven’t done it in so long and it felt so good. 

Sleep: I haven’t slept great this week. I’m not sure if it’s been more because of the baby or because of this cold that has plagued me.

Cravings: I have definitely craved sweets this week. I’m not sure if it will stick or if it was just a fling. I’m trying really hard to indulge in extreme moderation.

Looking Forward To: The weekend. We are going to see friends and celebrate birthdays and I can’t wait for a fun full weekend with them!

24 Weeks // Mini Moccs and Bows

January 9, 2015

affordable_baby_moccasins



Moccasins: here // Bow: here

Baby girl is already getting spoiled. Not only did she get a few gifts for Christmas, but she got her first pair of moccasins this week! They are so tiny and adorable! She even got a matching bow. I mean, how could she  not? I came across Mini Moccs and Bows on Instagram (of course) and fell in love with their baby moccs. I am very pleased with the quality and I can’t wait to dress her up in them. They’ve got a few new styles available and even have a pair of leopard moccs! I am in love. Why didn’t anyone warn me that having a girl would break me? 😉


Mini Moccs and Bows is so affordable. I will definitely be ordering from them in the future. Their baby bows and moccs would make a lovely baby gift as well. 


baby_moccasins

baby_bow

How far along: 24 weeks tomorrow!

Size of baby:1 and 1/3 pound and 12 inches long!

Gender: Our sweet baby Girl! 



Weight Gain: I officially hit the dreaded 10 lb. mark this week. I feel good and have been exercising a good bit and eating healthy, but I have a feeling those pounds are coming. I am 10 lbs. down from where I was with Hamp at this point which I am very thankful for.

Movement: She is moving all the time! She even wakes me up during the night. Ryan has felt her many times this week and he loves it!


Workouts: Love Your Body series has officially begun and I am doing really well so far. I am a little behind on my miles, but I am trying to catch up. 

Sleep: I’m still sleeping okay. 

Maternity Clothes: I’m still trying to mostly make due with what I’ve got. I am loving this maxi dress, though! It is so comfortable! You can read my review here.

Cravings: Still no cravings. 

Favorite Moment This Week: We bought Hampton’s new bed! Huge step for his new room. The only problem is that it won’t be here for at least 6 more weeks. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted now that we have officially started planning his new room. Also, I went to the doctor yesterday and everything looked great. Baby girl’s heartbeat was 132 and she was moving all around. It makes me so happy and thankful to hear her little heart beating and knowing that she is healthy. 

Looking Forward To: The weekend. We have had a busy week, and I am definitely ready to relax a little bit…and catch up on my miles. 🙂

Announcement // 14 Weeks // 15 Weeks // 16 Weeks // 17 Weeks // 18 Weeks // Gender Reveal  // 21 Weeks // 22 Weeks // 23 Weeks
