Designing a Life She Loves : Baby Bird {30, 31, 32, 33, & 34 Weeks!}

Apparently I can't keep up with my weekly updates...whoops. I read all of my favorite blogs almost daily and I always think about posting my updates and then life gets in the way and before I know it, another week has gone by. I thought the best way to share would be via Instagram. Here's some life lately pics for a little glimpse into what's been going on around the Bird's Nest...

*This post is filled with pics...sometimes it's just nice for a little picture walk through daily life. Tutorials will be posted throughout the next week or two for: DIY baby headbands, DIY baby mobile, and DIY nursery tree mural*

Let's begin...

We decided to update our bedroom and hallway closets with brand new doors and closet systems. So exciting! This was our before...

During...

And after...ahh b-e-a-u-tiful & organized!

My hubby's honey-do list is about a mile long and he's been a trooper through it all! My little pregnant mind is always spinning with updates and projects for us him to do:) The other night I needed (NEEDED) a wall command center...so I just suggested that we hang the dry erase board and mail organizers I picked up from Home Goods. I think my hubby caught on after I simply said...hmmm it would be so nice if it could just get done so we can check it off the list...around 10 minutes later it was done and I felt calmed:)

The dry erase calendar has really been working for us (well, me, who am I kidding that he actually looks at it!) I write down all of our bills, work schedule, important dates, etc...below is an example of how it's started each month...

30 weeks with Baby Bird!

Our baby headband model Kate...how adorable is she?! I had a DIY baby headband get together with my sister, Kristen, and friend, Julia, and we made the cutest baby headbands!! Tutorial to come...

I can't stand the cuteness...

On to 31 weeks...

Some outtakes for you... this was after my mom was taking my picture super close and I eventually said "just stand back and I'll crop myself..." Yeah say that in your head and realize what it sounds like...:)

Nursery sneak peek: Baby's dresser/changing table all put together...

Current state of our bathroom because I'm crazy and needed the bathroom done before the baby arrives!!! I can't wait to see how it's going to turn out and I'm so excited! Our friend Tom is renovating everything and he had such great ideas...can't wait until it's done...
