Weekending
Happy Tuesday, y’all. I’m actually doing a weekend recap because for the first time in a long time, we actually did a few things this weekend! It sure has left me one tired Mama, though. I’m really struggling this morning!
Friday night, after work, I met a few of my favorite ladies at Uptown Art for a paint session.
I’ve never done this before but let’s just say, I’m definitely NOT an artist.
But, we did have a great time!
Saturday, we headed out for a few things for our gender reveal (eek!) and some things that Cory needed. I’ve done so well not to buy anything baby but I couldn’t pass up this little onesie!
And for the first time in months, I had dinner in an actual restaurant. That’s big, y’all.
Yesterday, I got really brave and we headed to IKEA in Atlanta. In order to get the baby’s room started, we need to make more room in my closet for Cory’s clothes as well as organize our office. After nearly two years of eyeing this baby, it came home with us yesterday!
By the end of the day, I was exhausted!
So I grabbed this to help! So yummy!
We had to ride like this all the way home from Atlanta, but we managed to get all the boxes to fit in my car!
And even though it was almost 8:00pm before we got home, my sweet boy went ahead and put my new shelves up. I can’t wait to fill them up and get all my stuff organized!
So what did you do this weekend? Be sure to check back tomorrow for my 14-week bumpdate!

I’m dying to get to an IKEA … you’ll have to post the finished organization :)
Our local painting place had that exact same picture to do & I wanted to sign up for it – its so beautiful. Yours turned out great!!!
AHHHH – the little onesie. Even if its a boy, you need to take a picture of him in it for memory sake of the first one you bought :) … & then blackmail him with it when he’s a teenager :)

I don’t know, Paige, that painting is pretty impressive. I loved how it turned out.
I can NOT wait to see your nursery! I know it will be adorable. Getting Reagan’s nursery ready was probably my favorite thing we had to do to get ready.
So glad you were feeling well enough to go out this weekend too!

Yay for the new shelving! Don’t you love how having a baby means you finally get to organize and tackle projects that you’ve been putting off? Lol! Sounds like a fun and productive weekend!
