Willa Kate's Nursery

Willa Kate's nursery is slowly coming together!! I don't have pics yet but I figured I would put somethings that we have bought and give you an idea of what her nursery is going to look like!!

We are not painting her room. So it will just be the tan that is already on the walls. We didn't want to paint since we think we might be moving soon after she arrives.

Here is the crib:

I bought this beautiful french provincial 9 drawer dresser off of craigslist and painted it white. Looks similar to this one.

I bought this mirror from Ikea to hang above the dresser and I am in search of some ribbon for it!

I couldn't get the picture to rotate but it will be hung horizontally.

I also bought this cute little bookcase that has lots of curves and some glass knobs on it!!

The coco dot nursery bedding from pottery barn kids.

I also bought some of the polk a dot storage from pottery barn.

Silk panels from pottery barn

My favorite thing so far is this beautiful print from pottery barn!!

I am going to make her a bow holder and a canvas with either her initials or her name on it. I am

so excited about her room and can't wait to see it all come together!!

Too good not to share!!

So, I have been looking on craigslist for furniture for Willa Kate's room. I search the antiques and furniture sections daily to see if they have anything that I am looking for. This morning as I was looking through the antiques section I came across a posting that said "Magic Rock $10,000". Of course I had to click on it to see what it said. And here is what the posting said "I have a rock for sale. It's magical. I made 34 wishes on it, and all 33 have come true. My 34th wish was for 10 grand to pay for college, and the rock instructed me to sell him on craigslist for that said amount. here goes nothing."

Needless to say I have had a really good laugh this morning and thought it was too good not to share!! LOL

Here is the real posting if you want to see it for yourself! http://easttexas.craigslist.org/atq/2121565604.html

UPDATE: someone has replied to this listing and posted their reply on craigslist. The person's response is "Have you been drug tested lately?" LOL

Mississippi pics

We went to Mississippi last week and had a great time!! Brady loved playing with Mimi and Papa and all of his cousins!! Here are a few pics from our trip.

I stole these next two pics from Kasey!! I love them!!

Happy Halloween!!!

Sonogram pics and baby girl's name!!

Here is our sweet baby girl, Willa Kate Dimino!!!!!!! We will call her Willa Kate! I just love double names!! Wilse isn't to fond of double names though!! LOL So I think he is just going to call her Willa. Either way I absolutely love her name!!

Pumpkin Patch

Friday we went with our playgroup to the pumpkin patch! We had a great time and were so glad that Wilse was off and got to join us! Brady wouldn't smile for the camera at all!! So after a few minutes I just kinda gave up on getting a good picture!! Here are the few decent pics I did get.

Tx State Fair

Last week my parents were in town and we went to the state fair. This years fried food winner was fried beer!! None of us tried it, it sounded pretty gross to us. Some of the others that were in the top were fried club salad, fried frito chili pie, fried smores pop tarts, fried lemonade, fried texas caviar, fried chocolate and fried margarita. Needless to say we didn't try any of these. My parents did get some fried caramel and I had a bite and it was pretty good! Not as good as a fried twinkie though!! This year was a lot more fun than last year because Brady actually rode a few rides and he really liked them. My mom and Wilse rode a couple of rides too, but of course I couldn't ride anything :( I take that back I did ride the skyway. LOL Here are a few pics from our trip.

Some livestock at the Fair.

It's a...................................

Well, I never thought I would say this but....

We are sooooo excited that Brady is going to have a baby sister!! After many generations of no Dimino baby girls!! We are going to break that!! I can't wait to meet her in March!!

Destin Vacation

Last week we went to Destin, FL for vacation!! If you have never been there this time of year than you should definitely go!! The weather was perfect and it was not crowded at all!! The only downside was that the pool was a little chilly!! This year we got a house that was directly on the beach! It was so much easier than last year when we stayed at a house in a little neighborhood that was across the street from the beach!!

Brady absolutely loved the beach! He even cried the last day when we were packing up the car!! Brady loved seeing all of the airplanes fly over, throwing seashells in the ocean, playing in our little splash pool on the balcony, seeing all of the seagulls but he mostly just loved playing in the sand!

We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back next year as a family of four!!

We saw dolphins almost every morning!! This is the best shot I got!

2 dolphins

The house we stayed in was on the left side of this duplex.

The splash pool was on the first floor balcony!!
