Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Today is Valentine's Day and we are sitting at home relaxing on the couch with full bellies. :)

I went down to Orange County to get my hair cut today and my Mom came and met me with some red velvet cupcakes to celebrate. SO YUMMY!! Once I got home Ari and I decided to cook dinner at home and enjoy our last Valentine's Day just the two of us. It was PERFECT!! Tomorrow night we are going out to a nice restaurant by our house which will be our first night out on the town in a quite a long time--we are excited!!

Just a couple of little updates from the past few days to report. The wall letters I had custom painted for the nursery were delivered and they are adorable!! I picked out Eleni's "coming home outfit", so she will be looking oh so cute for the millions of pictures that day!

I can't believe that this week I will be 32 weeks--WOW so crazy!! Our little angel will be here before we know it. We hope everyone had an amazing Valentine's Day. XOXO

Cute cupcakes!!


Ari came home with this beautiful Orchid for me today. Love you Ari!!!


These will be hung on the wall above her crib.



Here are some better pictures of the nursery paint color (taken in natural light).

30 Weeks!!

This weekend my Auntie and Nana came up from San Diego and put the border up in Eleni's room. It looks SUPER cute--I am in in love!!! Thank you Auntie!! My Nana was lucky enough to get to feel Eleni kick and move around--this is pretty exciting because Eleni seems to get stage fright anytime I try to let other people feel her besides Ari and I. So this is a pretty big deal that she let Nana feel her. It made me so happy to see the smile it brought to my Nana's face!! :)

This weekend we also went to Home Depot and ordered new carpet for all of our bedrooms. I am so excited, everything is finally coming together!! As soon as the carpeting is installed we will be able to set up the crib and dresser. I can't wait!!! On Sunday we had our first Child Birth Class which was fun and pretty hilarious in parts. :)

Not much else to report this week. Here are some pictures of the border and the ever growing belly....




Sorry the pictures below are not the greatest. I will take more this weekend once we have better natural light. The room is pink and not orange in case you were wondering. :)
