Happy Ber Months & Bed Rest Gems

Alright you guys!  We are officially into the "Ber" months & I am officially excited.  Yay!  I'd like to say I have big plans for these upcoming months, but from what it looks like...until 35 weeks gets here, I will be laying low.  And also intently googling "how to avoid gaining 5,000 lbs & lose all muscle mass during bed rest."  Baby A, you had better stay put with all this self deprivation!  I kid, I kid!;)  I do however have time to make plans for our fall & winter- hoping that they will eventually happen!  
Me: "Cam, will you take a picture with me?"  Cam:  "I not say cheese." <Grinning from ear to ear>

We are currently living at my Mom & Dad's house.  They are graciously allowing us to redo the upstairs loft into a living space until our "next adventure" happens-but we will leave all that in God's hands as I can't worry myself with all that right now!  Two of the rooms have been painted with an off white color & we are hopefully supposed to have the bedroom/living rooms spaces refloored this week to give it an update & brighten everything up a bit.  I hope to share the space as we make progress so check back for updates!  I guess another space design post is due in the near future?  (Scratch the apartment)
Lots of furniture to be removed, appliances replaced, & work to be done!
My nana has already made it squeaky clean for us, scrubbing on it for 3 days+ bless her soul!:)

Good morning!  Fresh morning treat of decaf on ice & Cam's "blue" coffee made by Nana.
He's so funny.  And was obsessed with our witch straws:)
To continue the randomness of this post, why not include a few gems I have discovered while on bed rest?
  • Did you know Growing Pains still comes on television?  Yes!  It was one of my favorite shows growing up & can be found on the UP network at 10 am every weekday morning.
  • I'm obsessed with Christina, Tarek, & Flip or Flop.  Okay, HGTV in general.  But especially them.  I'm continually "flipping" my mom & dad's house in my head as I sit here staring at the walls... lol!
  • The Mountain Faith Band from Sylva, NC (where I was born & spent all 7 years of my college education) are the bomb.com.  Just go watch them on YouTube!  I can't quit singing "Counting Stars" after hearing their version.
  • 'Tis So Sweet To Trust In Jesus by Casting Crowns is my jam:)
  • Online shopping for baby & home goods is where it's at...okay, maybe my husband & mother (who has to check the post office for me & carry the packages home) doesn't think so.  Hey!  The doctor said I could!
  • Golden Doodles are excellent guard dogs, but total teddy bears with kids.  (At least ours is!)  Honor lays by my side & barks at anyone who unexpectedly comes around myself & Cam.
  • Gap & co (Old Navy, Banana Republic) & JCrew Factory (two of my favorite stores) have a sale almost every. day. of. the. week.  I always just thought I was lucky to catch one before when I was ready to buy something, but no!  They keep em' coming!  I pack my imaginary shopping cart full & plug in the discount just for bed rest fun everyday:,)  I know, I know...haha!  Pathetic!
The struggle is real these days...
Happy Ber Days;)
