Baked and Waiting

I’m not official “due” yet, but we’ve passed the 37 week mark.  Which means, by most standards, this baby is about ready to face the world – and her way too eager parents! Is it bad that I’m secretly hoping that she decides to make a slightly early appearance this weekend?  Of course my main […]

A Surprise and a Shower

A few weeks ago I was given the most amazing gift a girl could ask for. My amazing friend, Erin (along with her husband and 3 month old baby girl) showed up, unexpected on my doorstep – all the way from Canada! Apparently, it was a surprise that she and The Hubs had been in […]

Baby Prepping Weekend

As of today we are planning to only have two more weekends to get ready for BGF. The first time I thought of how many weekends we had left before meeting her – I was 22 weeks, and had 18 weekends left. This is so much closer.  So close I can barely believe it. The […]

Aria’s Room

Sometime in the next month we’ll be bringing home our little Aria, and when she gets here, she […]

34 Weeks Pregnant

Nursery Deets

So that no one thinks I’ve fallen off the face of Nursery Planet over here – We’re still not 100% done with it, but here is BGF’s closet.  It was originally a regular closet with the rod up high.  Not really conducive to baby things that are small.  So my wonderful family helped by designing and building […]
