Birthday Week Kickoff, Mother's Day, and Nursery Update!

Just a quick post before I head into work this morning. Memorial Day weekend was very productive. Since we have been out of town for pretty much the entire last 4 weeks we needed to work on house stuff. We got TONS of yardwork done. Aaron's parents came up and helped us weed, get the garden ready, and more. They also kicked off what Aaron likes to refer to as his "BIRTHDAY WEEK CELEBRATION" (this is a large improvement from his old thinking of a "BIRTHDAY MONTH"). We also celebrated Mother's Day, visited graves, and of course played a little bit too.



The way to Aaron's heart... Home Depot Gift Card!


Celebrating Mother's Day: brunch at Market Street Grill.
Mmmm Yummy!




And finally for step 2 of nursery conversion.....
The painting is done and the crib is set up. Thanks to our awesome parents that share all their talent with us. (Aaron's dad painted, my dad makes awesome friends like the guy that gave us this crib for FREE, and my mom handmade the crib bedding.) There is still tons of decorating to do, drapes, glider, and my changing table is still getting it's makeover, but the process continues!
