Friday Favorites Link Up

August 23, 2014 by Sarah

Momfessionals

Happy Friday!

I thought it would be fun to link up with Andrea for Friday Favorites!

This week was fairly busy, but it started out with Savannah and I getting our teeth cleaned at the dentist.  Since Kev doesn’t officially go back to work until next week, he was able to keep Brady for me which meant we had a little girl outing.  It was nice to go somewhere with just Savannah and she did great, just like last time {this was her second cleaning}.  We both got new toothbrushes with pink on them.  I love being a girl mom!

I had two doctor’s appointments on Wednesday and again, Kev was a huge help by keeping both the kids for me.  He has been going into school a little this week, so he took the kids with him and they had a blast in his room.  My appointments went well {I see a high risk specialist and my regular OB during pregnancies since our first baby was an unexplained stillbirth} and I got to see our little guy on the ultrasound screen.  They are estimating his weight to be 3 lbs. 12 ounces.  I don’t do weekly belly shots, so this one was 3 weeks ago when I was 28 weeks.  I have a long way to go to be so huge!  πŸ™‚  
After lots of obstacles, I was finally able to spend some time in my weekly focus room for the week.  I still haven’t decided what to do with the TV armoire, but I was able to touch up the walls with some fresh paint. {Please excuse the mess!}  The walls have taken a beating over the past 2 years and it was easier to paint than clean them.  Plus, the stairway going to the upstairs had never gotten a second coat of paint on it before we moved in, so I took the opportunity to finish that up too.  I used the same paint color since the stairs are looking into the living room.  It felt nice to get that done and I’m planning to do a couple of other small things in the room this weekend.
   
That’s about all I’ve got for today.  πŸ™‚
Tomorrow, Kev and I are heading to a marriage conference in town.  I’m looking forward to learning some great stuff!!  
Have a great weekend!

    With the wider shot of your room, I have to say that 'yes, absolutely, that armoire is just too big for your space'! I think cutting it down in increments is the way to go

      That's my plan, Laurinda. I am just having trouble finding a good time to do it when my husband doesn't have to work. I'm hoping maybe next weekend!! πŸ™‚
