Preparing...

We are getting closer to the due date and very excited. I think God is preparing us for getting up in the middle of the night since we have been up the last 3 nights. Mostly because I can't sleep or leg cramps (not fun). We went to hospital tour this past Tuesday, which was great. DeKalb Medical has a new women's hospital and it is very nice. We learned a lot of good information. Glad we went. Walking around the hospital made it very real. A little scary at times, but exciting just the same.
We are starting to get the nursery put together.
Here is the bedding for the nursery. We are going with green and brown colors and then adding in pink or blue touches once the baby arrives.


Our good friend Sarah is painting the room for us. She is so good at faux finishes and just decorating in general. Her company is Timeless Interiors.

My aunt and uncle gave us our first baby toy, our jumper. We have it sitting out so Caesar and Bailey can get use to the idea. It is so cute but it is weird to have it sitting out and passing by it. No kids toy matches the decor of a house.

I will post more photos of the nursery once we have it complete. Probably mid September.
We have 14 weeks to go and counting down.

It's getting closer!

It just seems like time is flying by. The baby is going to be here before you know it. We finally got our crib bedding in so we can now select our paint colors for the nursery. I am going to start working on doing the judges panel trim in the next week or so. I can't wait! We did put together our first baby play toy and it is now sitting in the family room. It kind of hits you when you come into the house and see a "jumper" sitting in the floor. There really is going to be a baby living here. Wow! I am sure that will be one of many toys to be scattered across the floor of my house. I am going to have to work on getting used to that. I do like my neat and clean home.
