Good times with family and Fathers Day

I have to start by saying that I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful family! My cousin Katie from Denver has been in town for the last two weeks and I have REALLY enjoyed spending time with her. She is such an incredible young woman! I have decided that Katie is good at EVERYTHING!! In the last two weeks, Katie has helped me with just about every project that I needed to get done! Thanks so much Katie :) She and my uncle helped paint Austin's nursery and Katie designed and painted the mural above his crib. The mural looks so precious and it makes it even more special that his cousin painted it for him! Katie leaves today even though I think she should stay for the rest of the summer...

Katie and my Uncle John hard at work painting Austin's room...

This is the mural that Katie painted above Austin's crib...it is precious!

On to Fathers Day...
The father to be woke up to a special Fathers Day breakfast and few gifties from me and Austin!

Silly Daddy!

Austin got John a Fathers Day Card...hey we have a very advanced baby...what can i say?haha

After breakfast John and I headed over to his parents house to have lunch and go swimming! John can't seem to put the squirt gun down, even for a picture...he was having way too much fun with that squirt gun!!


We took my dad out to dinner that night to celebrate. I am so lucky to have two such amazing men in my life. Happy Fathers Day John and dad! I love you both so very much!
This is the amazing cake that my sister made dad and John...she is so talented!


32 weeks today!

Birthday Celebration

I had a really fun birthday this year. I turned 28 weeks pregnant the same week that I turned 28 years which I thought that was kind of special! My family went out to dinner the night of my birthday to celebrate and I wanted to to share some pictures with you all...

28 weeks and counting...




And the birthday celebration continued that weekend with more family...hey, you can never have enough birthday, right?!


Auntie Rachel wanted a picture with "the belly"... She loves talking to her nephew!!


This is the cute cake that my sister in law made me for my birthday! How lucky am I that I have two sisters who both make amazing cakes?? One word people: YUMMY!!

And yes...we finished off the whole cake at our house! Can I blame it on being 7 months pregnant??










Mothers Day Pictures!

YAY! So I finally figured out how to add pictures to my posts (thanks mel! ) So now I am going to try and do a much better job of keeping everyone updated on the happenings in the Simmons household! I am going to back track a little and post pics from Mothers Day and my birthday and then definitely get to pics of the nursery very soon...

Mother's Day Pictures

This is the adorable cake that my sister made me for my first Mothers Day!





26 weeks pregnant on Mothers Day...the belly is definitely growing!!

My wonderful sister in law stopped by our house with my niece and nephew to bring me a Mothers Day gift

My sweet husband got me this necklace with Austin's initials on it! I love it!!
