Green is the color of ...

"Green is the color of ... nature, fertility, life. Grass green is the most restful color. Green symbolizes self-respect and well being. 

 Green is the color of ... balance. It also means learning, growth and harmony. Green is a safe color, if you don't know what color to use anywhere use green."

 Green is the color of ... our nursery! We painted it this weekend. Even though we are in a rental, we know we'll be here for at least another year and our landlords were completely fine with us painting. The light green matches the gender neutral Aussie bedding we are using.
From white to green! The lighting isn't great so the colors are a bit off but it gives you an idea anyway. The other two walls are the light green as well.
As for my artwork update. The critters are painted and now I'm struggling with what to do with the backgrounds (and if you are an painter you know that is somewhat backwards since it is easier to paint the background first but oh well, I wanted to get started!). Once they are complete you'll get to see them.

 Next appointment this Friday!

LENGTH WARNING: Last post and this post are catching you up and will serve as a memory for us in the future, so we apologize they are a little long. Once we got home and settled from our European adventures we hunkered down while I fought daily fatigue, a decent amount of nausea, a few food aversions and a heightened sense of smell that often left me holding my noise and running away from its source. Our first doctor's appointment was scheduled for 8 1/2 weeks and it seemed like forever away. One huge blessing is working from home where I don't have to get ready or act "normal". Stefan and Andrew helped out with some cleaning, cooking and errands while I really took it down a notch. I normally have a hard time resting and relaxing and not accomplishing much in a day, so my July was a bit different. The first appointment was great for the most part. We got confirmation and even got an ultra sound. We could see it's little heart beating although we won...

FL Friends Showering us with Loads of Love

Image
I have to say I feel very grateful and blessed to have some great friends in FL. It makes it a bit easier being away from family knowing we have loving friends here who are genuinely excited about Baby Underwood's arrival and spending time with him/her. Three special girls, Calli, Libby and Natalie, planned an Aussie-themed shower to go with the nursery theme. It was adorable and all so appreciated. Thanks to them and all the ladies who were able to make it out for a Sunday afternoon dedicated to celebrating the pending arrival of Baby U. Much love! Hand-knit koala hat! Brooke - you are so good! Lots of our FL family. Aussie-themed cupcakes, and they tasted great, too! To see the full album check it out here . Our last appointment went well! I passed my gestational diabetes test, uterus measured well, heart beat of the baby was strong, my weight was still right on and blood pressure was ... well, it is okay compared to where it has been. One more appointment...
