Baby's room

If all goes according to plan, John will be painting the baby’s room this weekend. I’m so excited to start organizing the room and setting it up! We’ve gotten so many nice things from friends and family, but I haven’t been able to unpack it and organize it all since the room’s been a total disaster. So by the end of the weekend I should be able to start putting things away and really decorating. Yippee!

September will be a busy month for us. We have 3 weekend prenatal classes, I’ll be taking my maternity photographs, and it’s my dad’s birthday as well. Thankfully, I can see work finally slowing down, ‘cause I don’t think I’ll have time for it all with all this stuff we have to do!

Here are the pics of our new-used crib and change table:

Productivity

We had an incredibly productive long weekend. John busted his butt ALL weekend painting our main floor. He did SUCH a good job. Our place now looks amazing, I’m in love with our walls! While John painted, I hung out with my dad on Saturday (it was a gorgeous day, we hung out on the front porch with the dog ALL day) and I unpacked the office on Sunday. Monday I took down all the paint tape. Poor John is so exhausted. And he still has the basement, baby’s room, and kitchen cabinets to do! Did I mention I love my husband very very much?

We also bought a crib with mattress and change table for an incredible bargain. We bought them used, but you couldn’t tell by looking at it, everything is in pristine condition. The woman we bought it from even included a full crib set, a bag of sheets, AND a bag of baby boy clothes! All for $125!!!!!!!!!!!! A.maz.ing.

Photos of the walls AND our new furniture to come later tonight.

Oh, and I’m 26 weeks pregnant today!

*Edit* We didn't get any pictures tonight. Sorry! Tomorrow for sure.

First blog post EVAH!

Here's our little baby Churchill at 21 weeks:


I am now 25 weeks and 2 days preggers. Everything is going great! Except for the swollen feet. It's so irritating! And I normally have such cute feet, and now... not so much. My SIL even called them hobbit feet!! *waaaaaa* And my one fingertip is numb. But really, I shouldn't complain, I've had it REALLY good so far.

We've picked out our baby room theme. Farm! It's unisex, so we can pass it on if we have a girl next time around (did I mention we're having a boy??), OR, heck, maybe the u/s tech was wrong!
