birthday update with pictures

Well my birthday was really nice! I had a pedicure in the morning with a pumpkin spice latte (decaf of course..), took a quick nap and then had my mommy-to-be massage at 230 in the afternoon! It was SO nice. They have a special pillow with an opening in the middle for your tummy to go through so you lay on your stomach the whole time! They also use unscented oil for the smell sensitivity and some essential oils are not good to mix with pregnancy. After the massage I took a shower there at the spa and used their products. It was so nice! Once I got home John was already home and waiting for me with flowers. We ended up going to dinner early since we were both ready to go and hungry! John had a really good halibut dish and I had scallops. We finished it off by sharing a piece of black forest cake that was made with chocolate mousse! Overall I don't think I could haveasked for a better day! It was nice to just do nothing but relax! Here is me at 36 weeks exactly on my 29th birthday before dinner:

And here are a couple of the nursery. John got the shelves at home depot so we had more room to put things like picture frames and books. I had these pretty pink glass jars and nothing to do with them. We needed book ends.... so I had the idea to fill them with pebbles, and now they are great cute book ends! They aren't too easy to see in the picture, but they are very cute!


And then I found some cheap wall decals at target the other day. It has a bunch of branches birds, owls, and little forest critters. They aren't the best quality and I don't think they will stick too long, but they were just too cute to pass up! You can see a flower next to the bookshelf in the above picture. Here is my little hedgehog and some grass below!

The decals on etsy are much better quality and more expensive. I am still planning on getting one for behind Olivia's crib on the wall of a branch with birds. I have e-mailed with one decal seller who is going to make a custom one for me! I sent her a link to my bedding and a decal I liked that she already makes. It is going to be similar to this one but she said with more smaller daintier swirls like the bedding. Here is the original decal. I would have pink and green and brown though. This picture is from her shop, you can visit it with the link above!
Anyway that's about it for now. Today I have been working on cleaning the house, doing a little laundry and now I am downloading belly pictures to be sent to Walgreens. I need to get them in my belly book now that time is getting so close!
