r & r ... handmade beginnings

rest & relaxation

A recent week-long trip to California did amazing things for my pregnant self.  I slept SO well with cool breezes!  An escape from our 90s-100s here in Colorado were just what I needed.  On top of it all weeks 14/15 are proving wonderful on the energy front and I'm feeling like I'm actually getting things done.

Before we left for California, I went on a purge- and organization-spree that was quite amazing.  I've got a load of Goodwill to get out and I'm feeling like we are making a lot of progress.  Our last Dr. visit was great and Kalin was able to come for the first time to see this little one moving and shaking!  Baby didn't let us know what gender it was quite yet, so we're waiting until the end of the month until we find out - once we know, time to go to town on that nursery.

Back to CA - I had such a lovely trip and was able to spend a lot of precious time with Kalin's family!  Our little one is going to be so blessed with wonderful grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts and uncles - on both sides!  Lots of love that only grows.  My time in CA finished with a 2nd annual Lundquist girl's Stitch-a-roo, where we get together, stitch, sew, shop, eat and enjoy each other's company.  We were all quite successful with our projects and I got one in for the little one:


These little hoops will hang in the nursery and they have some of my favorite Dave Matthew's lyrics from the song "Oh".  We had this song at our wedding ceremony and I just absolutely love this simple little endearment.
