Random!

It has been sunny and 80 in Nashville the past two days.. makes me very eager for a vacation!! Last May Brent and I were fortunate enough to get to go to Italy with his family for almost an entire month! Sadly, we will miss this year's France trip because... someone.. is with child :) I wouldn't change that for the world, of course - but a girl can dream of a vacation!!
I'll think of my maternity leave as a really long vacation - where I'm fully planning to spend a lot of time poolside with Miss Addie Mae in her pack-n-play under the shade (again, a girl can dream).
Yall, get this! That pretty tree that you see behind my handsome husband..well, its dying. The builder of our house hit it with some type of equipment and I was told by a tree guy that I would be lucky to get 2 years out of it.. that was last year. I thought he was crazy, but I can now start to see that this tree isn't budding nearly like the others in the neighborhood. I'm so sad! It is a huge gorgeous tree.. and honestly to replace something of that size would be expensive. No thanks!
We have several places that need intense mulching and replanting - which I usually LOVE to do.. sadly, this year Brent says I can't! I had to call our lawn people today to schedule the mulching.. sad that I can't partake.. I love getting my hands dirty in the yard!
.. I would love to have this stairway gallery wall finished by the time baby comes. I'm worried about trying to do it myself.. I know thats why people go to design school.. to make sure that I don't end up doing it twice! We'll see.. I need to get on it stat! I know that come summer I won't have as much time to look on Pinterest for hours on end gathering ideas.

Hope you enjoyed my fun rambling!!
Below is a good shot of this baby growth! Last night I begged Brent to take me for a walk, and finally he said yes! Usually by the time he gets home from a 10 hour day - the last thing he wants to do is entertain me :) But - I told him I've got to start getting some exercise in - and some SUNSHINE!!!
