MIA

So I've been a little MIa recently and falling behind with my posts... Sorry!! I've been busy taking care of my 19 month old and being prego.. Oh, and working on custom projects for people. Lots going on! We are officially less than one month away from our due date with Nash! Holy cow! Time has flown by, but I'm getting more and more anxious to meet our little guy. 

Recently, we had an awesome diaper party for little Nash. Thanks to my best friend (and future mommy-to-be), Jess for throwing it for us. She even made Nash some custom onesies! She's so sweet! 

We got a lot of diapers and wipes for the little man! 

We also have been very busy getting concrete poured at our house. Needless to say, this project was stressful for me.. We definitely decided to do it the wrong week. It had been raining a lot and we had the diaper party planned to be at our house on Saturday. They started on Tuesday and things were not going as planned. Long story short, it got poured but our yard was completely destroyed due to it being extremely wet... AND it rained on Saturday (the day of the party) so we couldn't even use it anyway.. Oh well! Here are some before and after pics... 
To the left of our Florida room. 

The left at a different angle.

The right side of the Florida room.

 The right side again. We have a patio set and wanted to be able to actually use it... We basically had no concrete at all. 

 The process.. (Right side)

(Right side again) notice our "mud pit" aka our yard... 

Right side poured.

Left side poured. 

And now we begin to try and grow some grass..  

Have to share a great find today.. I went to the dollar store (one of my favorite places) and took a chance on some nail polish I found. Now, this is risky.. Some are too watery and not the best quality. But I have to say, this kind I found turned out to be decent! It's only $1 and they had tons and tons of really pretty spring/summer colors (which is what I was in need of). I've only bought one color just to try it out, but I definitely plan on going back and getting more. 

This is what it looks like.. 

And here's the end result..


Ok, so it's not perfect and it wasn't as smooth as the expensive stuff, but if you're like me you constantly change your nail color and mess them up anyway.. So I can't complain! 


Ignore my turtle chair... I'm outside working on a tan while my son naps... Haha. 

Anyway, try this stuff out! I promise, for $1 it's totally worth it! 

Now, the real test is if it chips.. We will see. 

That's all for now!
