Noah's Room

I am starting to feel a little more organized. My mom came over last week and helped me get Noah's room in order. There are a few more little touches I would like to make, but for the most part it is complete.
I will start with the door to his room. My friend Merideth made this wreath for us to take to the hospital when Noah is born. It is too cute to only use once so I have hit hanging on his door.


Here is his bed. I swear it feels like just yesterday that I found the bedding. This has gone by really, really fast.



I catch myself sitting in here for no reason at all. I also love the picture in the corner. It is very hard to see in the picture, but my sister-in-law Darla had it made for me. It is cross that has his name in middle and a scripture at the bottom.



And finally, here is his dresser. Merideth also made the letters on the top of his dresser.

Everything is just about ready. It won't be much longer. I can't believe how quickly it has gone by.

I'm A Blogger Now.

Here I am, an official blogger. I wanted to make a blog after Noah got here so his grandparents and other family members could check out the millions of pictures I intend to take of him. I was put on bedrest last week for the rest of my pregnancy so I figured now was as good a time as any to get started.

While I don't yet have pics of Noah, I do have lots of pics of all the prep work going on to get ready for him. I can't really help much, but Johnny has been very patient as I come up with new things daily for him to assemble. Yesterday, he put together the exersaucer my co-workers purchased for me. I was extremely excited about this particular baby item. I wanted it bad. It's a 3-in-1 item that starts as a play mat then transforms to a traditional exersaucer, and then finally an activity table.



Since this the coolest of all exersaucers, it comes in one million pieces and the instructions are impossible. It took longer than the crib or the dresser to assemble. Thank goodness John is a patient man. I was ready to give up the minute we opened the box, but lucky for us Johnny likes a challenge.



He wouldn't even take a break to smile for the camera. He was determined.



Finally, the finished product. I was so excited until I realized I need about 100 triple A batteries for it to even be functional. Hope Noah likes it!!
