Nursery!

So after many months of work, the baby's nursery is just about ready!  Just missing a few things.  Clearly we need a baby, but we also are waiting on a piece of artwork one of my lovely co-worker's is painting for us.  It will go above the crib, and hopefully be something the baby can keep with him his whole life.  Very excited to see it finished and share it with everyone!

In the meantime, here are a few pictures of the rest of the room!



Fun frame with old family pictures above the changing table.  I have so many great ones, I'll have to change these out frequently, or add some more frames to the wall.





Changing table under the frame!


Whole far wall!




Crib wall and little reading station!


Dresser on left wall, thank you Mike and Ellen!! Check out my adorable diaper bag on the ground too - thank you co-workers!!





Frames on top - check out Mr. Bowen in the onesie we gave Jason and Kristy to tell them we were pregnant.  Can't wait to have a picture of the two of them together!



Bags are packed and ready to go!!


Books and awesome quilt from Grandma Jeri!

So that's it for now - hopefully we'll have a baby to fill this room soon!

37 Weeks!

And here we are!  Another week in.  We have been to the doctor twice since my 36 week post, and both times have been told that the baby's head is super low, and the whole labor process is started, but that my due date of 7/27 is probably still pretty accurate.  So, 2.5 weeks to go.  Our next appointment is Friday, so we'll see if he's made any progress by then! 

Dave and I have succumbed to the fact that we both think this little guy will hang out until his due date.  We were hoping he would come early, but now we're not getting that feeling at ALL.  This little guy is probably just like us, i.e. very stubborn.  So, clearly he is already doing it his own way.

I'll try and post some nursery pics soon!  We're just waiting on one final piece of art to finish it off.

36 Weeks!

36 down.  4 to go.  We start weekly doctors appointments this week to see how everything is progressing.  The little guy is definitely running out of room, it's starting to feel like his feet are wrapped around almost to my back!
