Surprisingly the baby has not been consuming my every thought lately. It's been my sweet puppies, Max and Zoe. They have had fleas for the past two weeks and it is breaking my heart. I constantly hear them scratching and licking themselves. They have red bites and scabs all over their sweet little legs. I can't tell you how hard it's been to know that I've done absolutely everything I can think of to get rid of them and I'm not sure what else to do. We have given them 3 baths, treated the backyard twice, vacuumed the house everyday for the past week, washed all of our bedding, cleaned all blankets, pillows, etc.,applied Frontline AND given them a flea pill. I mean look at these precious faces.
Jeff and I worked on Hampton's room a few weeks ago. We wanted to add some things to the walls. We weren't sure what we wanted to do so we started looking for inspiration. My mom sent me a pictures of wall decals that looked really cool. I loved the ones of hot air balloons because it reminds me of July 4th in Lexington, Virginia. Every year they have a balloon rally where they give balloons rides. I used to love sitting in the yard watching all of the beautiful balloons fly by.
The wall decals weren't exactly what we were looking for so Jeff decided to make them. He found balloons at Hobby Lobby and attached them to little baskets. We were so excited about the stuffed animals from the Disney Store. They are some of our favorites characters.
Under the balloons we painted a small bookshelf. Jeff bought a few books of fairy tales and nursery rhymes. I can't wait to curl up and read to my baby.
We also bought a shelf to put on the wall and some letters to spell out Hampton's name.
I am now 23 weeks and feel Hampton kicking constantly. I love the constant reminder that he's in there :)
