Hi friends! No sweet babe yet… at our doc appt yesterday I was 3cm dilated – good progress over the last week! So we scheduled a ‘just-in-case’ induction for next Tuesday morning. So baby’s birthday will be December 20th or before!! Just having an end date makes me feel like a new woman, with resolve and purpose and drive.
Nothing else really to report for the update, or for belly pics either. Still no cravings, no sleep, good strong Braxton Hicks, slowly losing my mucus plug, and a giant belly =) BUT I did take nursery pictures to show you!! My point and shoot rocks, but these pics are pretty straight forward (no fancy editing). Ready? FYI: there are a LOT of pictures here!

what you see when you peek inside! we went with a nice ‘polar bear’ white paint – it keeps the room feeling bright and clean. |

LOVE our bedding! It’s called arctic babies =) It inspired the whole room. The fabric is lovely – velvets, fuzzies, soft cottons… and a donation from its’ purchase went to help actual arctic babies! |

The bedskirt – red velvet! Hemmed in navy w/polka dots. Be still my heart… |

The bible quote is the best. I want to put that on Griffin’s wall. 🙂 Love the crib and bedding. So so cozye
I bet you are squealing with delight! I wish I could start all over having little ones!!!!!! Instead I have an incubator full of little fluffs waiting to hatch. So far I have 2 with little peep holes. Peeping to each other. Sweetness!
Can’t wait to see your precious little one!
Hugs, Linda
The nursery is ADORABLE! the crib, the bedding, the colors, the rocking chair… everything! 2 of my friends {who don’t know each other} had their babies a 1/2 hour apart on Tuesday morning. I’m sure you can’t wait to deliver and I know I can’t wait to see cute baby pictures!
Such a beautiful, sweet space. I love it. So exciting!!!
Soon a sweet wee one will sleep in that beautiful crib, and a mommy and a daddy will have hearts filled to the brim with love and hope for a new life ahead for the ‘new family’ they are becoming.
