Beating the Heat

Yesterday we FINALLY had a break from the awful heat! We had a light, steady rain for most of the day. It was wonderful! The few days before we're a little steamy with temps reaching 105 on Saturday. Yuck! So, I had to keep myself busy inside. (Most of you know that in the summer I love to be outside, but being 9 months pregnant, I can't really handle it as well.)

Here's some projects that I finished:

1. Bow - o -rama

I probably went a little overboard, but didn't really realize it until I counted how many I made. I made 14 clippies, 21 bows, and 6 headbands. Ooops!



2. Finished up the beginning of Karis' baby/scrapbook.



3. Did an at-home-spa day! I loved this one the most! I made an avocado/egg hair mask, an all over body exfoliant, and did a mani & a pedicure. It was pure bliss!

4. Got my postpartum belly wraps in! I'm really excited about this one. It helps hold your separated stomach muscles together for a faster healing time. It is also supposed to help your uterus shrink back down to its pre-prego size quicker. The only catch is you have to wear them for 40 days/nights.

5. We started on the rocking chair project, but it was way harder than expected. It will have to get done little by little when it's cooler outside.

6. Almost packed for the hospital!
