Kara's Wedding

My older sister, Kara, was married in the Salt Lake Temple Friday, March 21st. It turned out to be a great weekend and we're so excited for Kara and Drew. Here are a few pictures of the weekend. (Sorry, I think some of the pictures are blurry.)

Here I Am!

Well here I am at 32 1/2 weeks. This picture is also showing my new hair cut I got on Wednesday. I hadn't cut my hair since last May, so it was time! I forgot to take a before picture so you'll have to refer back to the pregnant picture of me I posted a while ago. I had only had it cut for 2 hours when the daughter of a lady I visit teach tells me, "I thought you were a man!" Then the next day at preschool I got comments like, "Mrs. Mikesell, you look wierd today." Or, "Mrs. Mikesell, you look funny." You've got to love the words that come out of little kids mouths! A few of them did tell me I looked pretty. :) But I love the hair cut so I'm happy!



And here is our first and so far, only purchase we've made!

Baby Room

I appologize that it's been so long since I've updated. I feel like I never have any fun pictures or things to post, but today I do! We finished painting our nursery tonight and are so excited! Ryan and his mom painted it while I was out of town two weekends ago. Then today we got the chair rail painted and up and did all the touch up work. It turned out pretty cute, I'd say! Thanks Mom M. for your help!


My pregnancy is still going great. I'm now 30 weeks. It's hard to believe there's only 10 more weeks to go. Time has gone by very quickly. I finally made my first baby purchase today: a car seat! I'll post pictures when it arrives. And I'll try to be better at posting! :)
Ryan painted the main color on Valentines Day. The room used to be a peach color. Isn't Ryan so cute?

Doing the finishing touches.
Finished! Now it's time to eat brownies and ice cream to celebrate!

Now we just need furniture to fill the room. My mom and I will start making the bedding as soon as my sisters wedding is over in 3 weeks! If you can't tell on the computer, the stripes are a teal color. We're going to accent in pink since we're having a girl and then when we have a boy, we'll accent in another color. We wanted it to work with either gender.
