Lifes little blessings

On Tuesday I will officially 20 weeks! That means I am halfway there! Time is sure flying by. This past week I have really noticed a increase in my energy levels which I am pretty happy about! I feel like I have accomplished a lot these last couple weeks in preparing for baby's arrival. We got a crib, a change table, a glider and I even sewed 2 baby blankets!
The baby is really starting kick and flutter a ton. It's such an amazing feeling. Mika keeps trying to feel it but I think it's too little still. Hopefully soon! I feel so blessed that I have had a healthy pregnancy so far. I'm also feeling super blessed by all these good deals I keep finding on baby items! Mika and I decided awhile back that we wanted to get a lot of used baby items to save some money. We didn't think it was necessary to go overboard on buying baby stuff! I feel like I have really been praying specifically about things and God has been answering so many of my prayers! God is good!
“And so I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. Luke 11:9
Here are some photos of my finds so far. The nursery theme I am going for is grey walls with all white furniture. I want it to have a bit of a rustic feel like the rest of our home. Some barn wood, white antlers,old window pane frames...Stuff like that! Not really "baby" looking at all!

Our crib! This photo is just one from online since ours isn't put together right now! We got the
crib and mattress for $80!


Change table I got for $30
Our glider I found at a thrift store for $10. I'm going to recover it with a white and grey print fabric
 on the front side and white burlap on the back
