Yeah! A new skill!

Do you like the new blogger template? I made it! I learned how this afternoon, and I am super excited! See the papers and string and everything? I even designed those! If anyone is interested, I would be willing to help them do a new blog background! Let me know!

Update and an early Valentines Day!

Update:

As of yesterday I am dilated to 1 1/2 cm. Not a huge deal, except for the fact that things are progressing! And now I have proof, besides the pain, uncomfortable nights, and swollen feet! Yeah for me! So my doctor thinks a few more weeks!

And cute matt got these for me for Valentines day! Early yes, but very much appreciated! Yeah!

Getting ready for baby...

So I have been in a whirlwind mood--getting everything ready. I realize that this is a typical expectant mother thing, but with Blake, we didn't do anything... and I do mean ANYTHING. I had him 5 weeks early, so we didn't even have a car seat and matt spent the whole time I was in the hospital shopping for everything we needed. I decided that I was not going to do that this time.

So I have spent the last month washing all of Blake's useable old things (old sounds nasty, but they are still new looking). Connor (the name we are trying out so far) has a closet full of clothes ready for him, and 2 outfits for the hospital... Who knows what he will end up wearing. In addition to nesting, I am also indecisive... LUCKY MATT. His crib is set up and ready for him (or for mama bear, as Blake likes to tuck his bear in at night there). The car seat is ready, and clean (and has curious george in it--again another Blake thing).

All we have to do is paint his room (chocolate brown I think) and we are set! Yesterday I got bored and made these frames for his room... So easy! Took me about 15 minutes a piece. Under $10! I love a good deal!

Sorry about the crappy pics, I tried to fix them, but it didn't work so well. Just know that the colors DO match, and they match the bedding.

Anywho, 34 days and counting.... Wish me luck!
