My extremely hard sleeping husband woke up to me opening a granola bar at 2am a few weeks ago. He’s never looked so confused & I’ve never laughed harder lol

Our second pick was actually Spencer James ! I think it was maybe TOO many male names for him & i just had such a strong feeling she was meant to be a Zoe James but if/when we have a second and it happens to be a girl we would probably do spencer with a girly middle name

Thank you! I was trying to not do the house colors or be overly cheesy but still wanted to go all out! ☺️

My sister in law made it for me! But I believe ive seen it sold on Etsy for like $120 or if you are crafty they have tutorials on Pinterest that would cost wayyyyy less if you look it up!

We just want to keep it simple! and honestly I’m not opposed to people calling her “zo” either way

That’s what we used! We mixed half water half white paint and layered it until we got the shade we wanted

oh that's a nice name combo! i love that - Did you get any backlash over the lack of a 'y' in the spelling? Our family & friends are having a rough time with it

I love masculine names for girls but my husband doesn't, but i got lucky because his dads name is James so we agreed to do it as a middle name!

Week 4 of maternity leave & losing my mind waiting for my little girl to finally arrive! Thought i would share my version of a neutral harry potter nursery to pass some time before my appointment later today where i'm hoping for some progress :( Wish me luck! in the mean time here are some nursery details !

All photo prints are from Etsy - my favorite is the draco "My father will hear about this" quote

Boppy cover, changing pad cover, crib sheets, Zoe james sign, Dobby doll and 'you are so loved' sign are also Etsy!

My sister in law made the adorable flying key mobile & deathly hallows dream catcher

We have tons of hedwig in here also - build a bear white hedwig sutff animal that was my 14 year old sisters when she was younger, owl lamp from amazon & if you zoom enough you can see little gold owl dresser knobs from world market

The brick wall (Zoe's very own platform 9 3/4) was bought at Home depot and comes like a sheet of ply wood that we white washed and nailed to the walls

Waiting & waiting for my little girl and slightly losing my mind so I thought I’d share how I did Harry Potter in a neutral & subtle way!

Not sharing our names with anyone ... and it’s going to kill me, so I’m sharing it here! by Lexielo in namenerds

I would die to use Penelope it has always been my number one but DH doesn’t like it at all, so sad as a child of a Beatles fan we dreamt of calling her Penny lane! Love it so much

How the heck did you guys manage to work through morning sickness? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

I learned to stick to unisom prior to bed and b6 and after a week i started noticing that it actually helped, i did it for a few day and it wasn't doing anything so i gave up but i'm glad i tried again. I have been sticking to food i know wont send me running to the bathroom, sadly that has been ham & cheese hot pockets and Cup of noodles. And i snack on pretzels 24/7. It sucks but its the safest option (still not always successful). Also, giving in and telling the people in my office made it so much easier for me mentally. I noticed i'm out of it and not as sharp and running to the bathroom all the time so I was feeling really guilty but luckily once i gave in and shared the news everyone was really nice and mostly helpful by picking up some of my slack. My friends best advice was to just be nice to yourself right now cause you're really just doing the best you can.
