Work of Art

We put up the art work on one of the walls! It looks great! We centered in on the wall

and not centered around the crib. Check it out! These prints came from etsy.com. Great place to shop for nursery art, baby items, baby announcements and so much more! What do you think?

House Emergency!

As homeowners we all pray that all of our appliances and stuff are always in working order so we do not have to do any repairs or remodeling to anything we "don't" want to do, but life those you lil wrenches every once in a while! This isn't college anymore where your land lord will just come and fix it! I wish! :)

Last weekend I was doing my usual 3-4 loads of laundry. I finished the first two loads just fine, on my third load the washer started making this LOUD grinding sound! It was an awful sound, so we pretty much knew what that meant. The washer had died.

This wasn't the best timing in the world, with getting the nursery put together, and buying some of our bigger baby items, but what can you do! You need a washer, its one of life's must haves! :)

We decided we were going to buy a new dryer as well, because our dryer is older than the washer (we are not sure how old they are since they were in the house when we purchased it back in 2007), and it would be good to have two brand new appliances once the lil peanut comes. I'm sure we will be having to wash a lot more clothes and bedding when she comes along!

These are our washer/dryer that we currently have in our basement. We went shopping last night and purchased a Samsung front loader washer/dryer set, and it will be delivered to us next Sunday. I will post a picture of them when they arrive! In the meantime I will be heading to the laundry mat t his wknd to do a couple loads of laundry. I thought I might be able to wait until next weekend but I think that might be a little hard!

Keep you posted!

Week 24 pic!

We have reached and stepped over the six month mark! Time has gone fast and so has my waistline :) ha ha... Here is the week 24 picture!

Ottoman Change!

Well I know in my previous post http://ourlifewithatwist.blogspot.com/2010/10/who-said-fleas-were-bad.html, that I said I had bought a ottoman already, but I went to Target and saw this one for $20.00 and I wouldn't have to recover it at all. The other ottoman was also a little tall for the rocker, so I was sold with this new green one! I bought this ottoman and I sold my other ottoman on Craigs List. Perfect solution! This green ottoman goes well with the rocker fabric as well!

Baby Crib!

We finally went out and bought our baby girl's crib on Saturday! We decided to go with a Graco crib from Target. It's called the Graco Charleston. It got good reviews and it goes with the style of our changing table and the feel of the room. It's white which matches the rest of our furniture.

This picture it is still in the box, but thought I would show you anyways! We now have all of the furniture we need for the nursery so that is a plus! Now its just organizing!

Framed Art

Yesterday I framed the three prints I bought off of etsy.com!! If you haven't checked out this website, you are missing out!! The prints arrived last Friday and I was so excited. I went to target and bought three frames and this is how they turned out. They aren't up yet but here is a sneak peek!
