Update...

Today is the first day that we are past due! The suspense is just killing us! We are both so excited and anxious we can hardly stand it! The dr. said he will let us go up to 2 weeks over before inducing. Please say a prayer that we don't go that far over!

Below is a picture of Ben modeling the blanket I made our son, some updated nursery pictures and a very patient Mel. Mel can definitely tell something is up, she just doesn't know what :0)

Diaper "cake"!




The office staff at one of the Dr.'s offices that Ben works for made this wonderful diaper cake for us! It was such a sweet and creative surprise!

Nursery Cont...





This weekend my mom and Edgy visited and helped complete the nursery! We absolutely love it and it far exceeds my expectations. We have some finishing touches to add: pictures in the frames above the dresser, more of the navy blue storage bins for the cube bookshelves (they were sold out at target), and of course toys, teddy bears, and books to fill the shelves. I know our baby will be very comfortable in his new home!

I want to thank my mom for all her help and for all the wonderful items that make this the most perfect nursery ever! We literally spent the whole day Saturday shopping and putting the room together and continued working on Sunday! Thank you mom and Edgy! We can't wait to bring the baby home and show him his new bedroom!

Ben and I are really getting excited! We just started the 32nd week and the clock finally feels like it is winding down! I've been feeling good :0) Except for my body retaining water and swelling, but I know this is normal and we only have approx. 8 more weeks to go! I'm really looking forward to the baby showers our families are planning for us!

Nursery!

We are so excited, the nursery is really coming together! And we are even more excited because we are using furniture that both of us used when we were babies. Our baby will get to use my baby crib and Ben's baby dresser. (Actually Ben's mom had the dresser when she was a baby too) Once the room is completely put to gether I will post pictures but for now a picture of the crib is below. Edgy completely cleaned and polished it for us. (It was rusty and a little scuffed from being in storage for 25+ years)
Thanks Edgy!
