Ah, the weekend. Two more left before baby girl arrives! And we are in HUSTLE mode.
Our weekend was made up of lots of projects around the house, sorting through newborn things that have been packed away & preparing for the return of never ending baby bottle washing. Bedtime couch snuggles & early morning hammock swinging. Painting the nursery PINK & joking about how we may have just jinxed ourselves into this one ending up a boy. A kid free night out filled with nachos and good rock & roll, Boston + Kansas at our favorite outdoor concert venue. A quick dip in the pool & homemade pineapple popsicles. More painting & furniture rearranging. And a Sunday night Netflix marathon, late night bowls of cereal & endless entertainment watching our two crazy girls on the baby monitor while they went to sleep together in the same room.
Hands full, hearts full.

I'm not going to lie, I was pretty skeptical when I saw that pink paint colour on Instagram but it looks great!! Love what you did to that dresser too. We just bought a dresser to redo for our little one coming this fall and I can't wait to find out what we're having so I can get started!
Colleen says
Girl, skip the bottles and let that baby nurse, nurse, nurse! Bottle washing is for the birds.
Caitlin Bazemore-Armstrong says
How do you accomplish so much? I have a busy one year old and am off for the summer. I feel like I can't get anything done! So excited for you to introduce your news little one!

What color is the paint you used? Gorgeous as always!
Shayna says
Jessica, you look absolutely glowy!! (Real word? Who knows.) Anyway, as always, your little ladies look adorable and that is the perfect shade of pink ♡ hoping for a easy, breezy next two weekends!
Tanya says
Do you have a recipe for the pineapple Popsicles?! That sounds SO good!!
Stephanie Garey says

Morgan @ Morgan Manages Mommyhood says
Reading "Hands full, hearts full" legit gave me chills, I love that.I have one, but we've decided to not start trying, but stop NOT trying, if that makes sense. Ugh babies.
Christina @ Embracing Simple says
Sounds like a wonderful weekend! I really like that shade of pink in the nursery too, girly but not an obnoxious "in your face" type of pink. Very pretty 🙂
Janet Kellstadt says
That is a really nice shade of pink! Everyone is adorable as always!
Hilary Kennedy says
In love with those striped leggings! Where are they from?
Eileen Brett says
My sister just had her 2nd girl in April after the doctors told her she was having a boy and the nursery was all finished in brown, navy and red trains… surprise!! (Although they told her very early on and then couldn't tell if she was a boy or girl in the following u/s so she maybe should have waited to do the nursery). Good luck with baby girl #3!!
Alycia says
i love the colour of your nursery. We are not finding out the gender this time around, so we are going neutral for the paint, and I'm hoping to find some cute accents after baby is born!
emilymaiko says
I really like your glider/rocker. I actually wanted one similar to that, but ended up getting something completely different.

They're little CHICK pjs – adorable!
IvyHearts says
Agree ^^^ while it doesn't always work out for all mamas, I loved nursing. No mixing, warming, testing, washing… It actually saved me so much time. ? hugs!!
Ashley @ Life on the Parsons Farm says
One day I'm going to be blessed with a full house..but for now it's infertility and adoption. Regardless I am so happy for growing families no matter how it happens!
Whitney @ Work it Mommy says
Those dresser knobs are too darling! Commencing baby countdown, so exciting 🙂
Elizabeth Birenbaum says
You guys always seem like you have the most fun! Sounds like the perfect weekend!

Where are Harper's black sandals from? Love them!

Hi! Totally not trying to butt in here, just thought I'd mention that she has blogged about the fact that she's had trouble breastfeeding in the past and she needs to use her pump quite often, hence the many bottles and tiny pieces she needs to use. I've been there- it's a lot of work but so worth it to still get that breast milk to the baby! 🙂
Paige Beck says
Love all of these pictures and the pink paint!
Colleen says
Oh I know, I've read for a while! More nursing means less pumping though, and therefore less bottle washing. Trouble breastfeeding in the past does not mean trouble breastfeeding in the future! Just trying to be encouraging!
Nat{natyouraveragegirl} says
baby's sweet pink nursery…swoon!
IvyHearts says
Yes, I have been reading this blog for years and recall that. There are plenty of options and support/ resources to help with supply and feeding issues. Colleen is right on point about pumping & nursing. It is not always easy to nurse, but as mentioned, it is definitely possible, even with previous issues. Just trying to offer positive reassurance ??
Jessica says
Praying for you! XO
Jennifer Rose says
uhh please tell me everything you used on your face in this pic! you look beautiful!!
Meg says
Love the paint color! We are selling our house so I'm holding off on painting but I love Soft Shoes by Behr for the day when we get back to painting!

Oops sorry, just trying to be helpful with the info. It didn't sound like ya'll knew she's had previous trouble. I had trouble with 2 babies and pumping was definitely a lifesaver for me! Surely she appreciated the words of encouragement. 🙂
