Dylan & Erica’s Place…

Pepper decided to kick the crap out of her dad. It was pretty awesome. I don’t know if it was the vuvezelas she was hearing or just knowing soccer was on TV but she sure did kick him. I’m feeling her every single day all the time now and it is probably the best feeling ever.  She loves to kick after I eat, drink or lay down. She definitely loves to kick when I’m taking a nice bath. I guess she is relaxing also?

Since getting back from Hawaii we have been busy with her nursery. Well I say we, more like Dylan has. We have done alot, but still have more to do. On our list to do is:

Put up crown molding

Get rug

Make curtains

Purchase Mattress 

Bedding is being made as we speak

Put decal above her crib

Make molding around the decal 

Put up poms

We also have a couple of things to do in our house after her nursery is finished. Like I really want to get a big freezer for all the breast milk I will be storing (Crossing fingers here on this one), I want someone to paint the bathroom. I don’t mind helping though. We need to get some new patio furniture and put some frames up in the guest bedroom.

Hopefully these things can be done in the next couple of weeks. If not, oh well it will be fine.

This weekend Dylan and I deep cleaned the floors because our dumb dog Floppy thinks our floor is the backyard and keeps peeing on it. Apparently he knows something is up and knows he is no longer the baby. Well he better get over that fast. My mom also came down and we did some baby shopping and recovered a lampshade with fabric. Lets just say it was  little more difficult than the website showed but we got it!

I’ll give you a couple of sneak peaks into Pepper’s room. She is going to have a pretty awesome room. She’s already so lucky!

Also I’ve been bad at having Dylan take my photos. Here is a photo I took myself at 26 weeks. Enjoy!

Hawaii!

Hawaii was great. It was a good getaway. I could have managed without the time zone change or the flight back from LA. It was miserable because I was so sleepy and so cramped. Dumb red eye flight But we had alot of fun.  I wish I would have been prepared for the horrible trip to the top of the volcano. Poor Dylan had to tell me multiple times I was okay and we were fine. No one was dying. I got altitude sickness along with motion sickness from this windy road and crazy bus driver. It wasn’t so great but the view was AWESOME. Once we stepped out of the bus I was 100% fine.

I loved the sno cones. So amazing. On the bottom there is a surprise waiting for you.. Ice Cream! Yum!

We saw some amazing fish and SEA TURTLES. Snorkeling was so much fun with Dylan. I enjoyed so much of it. I hope one day to take Ms. Pepper so she can see the fun fish for herself.

Some of the highlights:
