What We've Been Up To...

Since the holidays started it seems like we have been going non-stop around our house...whether celebrating with family for the holidays, celebrating birthday, celebrating the arrival of our new niece or getting things done around the house preparing for Westyn we have been busy...which is good it makes the days go by quicker!!!
We have been finishing decorating Westyn's room...we purchased this clock on an Etsy shop that matched Westyn's room perfectly. I absolutely love this clock!!!

My sister had this made for me for Christmas...I absolutely LOVE IT!!! We hung this in Westyn's room so we can always remember what's important in life.

When it SNOWS...Brandon's goes duck hunting!!! Brandon is a die hard duck hunter and the season was not so great that is until yesterday when the snow began. Brandon & Brian (these two are tied at the hip) decided they needed to wake up at 6:00 AM (on their day off) to go hunting...I don't think they made it back to our house until after 2:30.

Got close to their limit!!

And we have been soaking in precious time with our new niece, Aubrey Joy!!! She is changing everyday and has already grown so much in 2 weeks. We are enjoying seeing her grow each day & thinking about 8 weeks from now when Westyn will join our family. We cannot wait to see the relationship that Aubrey & Westyn will share since they will only be 2 months apart!!!

That IS a wonderful clock- I love the colors. Turquoise/blue/green has become a favorite of mine. It will be exciting to see the whole nursery with Westyn in it!

Glad to hear that your busy-ness nesting is helping the time fly by faster! I can't wait to see the nursery finished! You'll have to post pics when it is done! :)

Not sure how I feel about the duck hunting....but my sons were VERY impressed!! I am thinking that Westyn will be, too!!!

That clock is too cute! Tommy is completely jealous of the ducks :) He's just gotten into duck hunting this year.

Love those sweet touches to the nursery. And I am glad I saw your fundraising "ticker" as I had been looking for one for my own blog. Enjoy this time of preparation and anticipation!
