Due Date Countdown Widget

We have a glider now!!

I guess third time is a charm.  We picked up our glider last night from Babies R Us.  My friend Kristi helped us pick it up since it was too big to fit into our car.  We opened the box and it was the right glider and it didn't have anything broken on it.  Wahoo.  I even tried it out this morning and I love it already.  

Today my sister Lynette is coming over and we are going to get pedicures.  Zak is going to watch Zoe while we are getting pampered. THANKS ZAK!!  Then we plan on scrapbooking!  

What a good weekend already!

35 weeks

Nothing new here.  I just thought I would put an updated picture.  

Zak is getting really excited for this baby. He talks about how cute she is already.  He tells me that he can't wait to hold her.  He is going to be such a great Dad.

Ordered another glider. Made some nursery wall art.

Zak and I are hoping that the third time is a charm and that we will get the correct glider in a perfect condition.  We ordered another glider from Babies R Us and it should arrive in one to two weeks. Keep your fingers crossed for us.

We have been looking for some cute wall art for our nursery for quite sometime now.  We never could find anything we liked.  So we decided we would try and paint some.  I think we did a pretty good job actually.  I'm pleased!!  I posted a picture above.  

Everything here is still going good.  I'm starting to wonder how clean my house will stay in the next few months.  It is getting harder and harder for me to bend over and my feet hurt a lot from the swelling.  We are down to 5.5 weeks (39 days) until our Due Date.    

Is it impossible to get a glider rocking chair?

Strike 1: Baby's R Us sends us the wrong one.

Strike 2: The one we got from walmart is broken in the box.

I don't think we really want a strike 3, I have a feeling my temper could make a rather impressive appearance. I am beginning to think we should go to an actual furniture store.

May 20th

I never know how to start my post on here.   I don't have the style that other people have.  So I guess here are the things we have been up to lately besides work at Walgreens.

1. 

We finally have lots of baby necessities and I feel like we are quite prepared. Which is a great feeling.  Our nursery is nearly complete.  We ordered a glider from Babies R Us but they sent us the wrong one. So now we are waiting for a different one that we ordered.  I hope it comes in soon.

I already started packing a hospital bag.   I have been washing baby clothes all week and getting them organized according to size.  If any of my sisters read this: THANKS FOR ALL THE CUTE HANDED DOWN GIRLY CLOTHES.  If anyone knows me, I always plan ahead for everything.  It is so crazy to not know what exact day our baby will come.  Zak and I went to a prenatal class this weekend.  I think Zak has been scarred for life.  We saw quite a few videos that didn't seem to have any editing whatsoever.  Now I just hope he will make it through the whole process without passing out.

3.

I'm 34 weeks now and I'm feeling great.  My feet have started to swell some so I had to buy some new shoes.  I feel a little like Cinderella's stepsisters with the glass slipper.  Also my wedding ring doesn't fit anymore which really makes me sad.  I wear a different ring because I feel naked without something on my finger.  I have my 34 week Dr. appointment tomorrow.  I'm getting a little bored of the appointments already.  I can tell our baby is growing like crazy and it is so fun to feel her move.  She even gets the hiccups sometimes.  Very cute.  I already think I will miss her moving inside of me once she is born.  

4. 

The month of may was supposed to be my big scrapbooking month where I was going to get caught up on 3 years of pictures.  Have I accomplished this yet?  I have probably only added more pictures to my list to scrapbook rather than actually scrapbook my other pictures.

My friend Katie came to visit yesterday.  I hadn't seen  her in over 2 years, so that was fun.  We went to the scrapbook store and she bought half of the store out.  I miss our Laramie get-to-gethers where we would scrapbook once a week and eat yummy food.

I do want to thank Zak for updating our background recently. He spent so much time making it how he wanted it that he was too tired to actually make much of a post.  I also want to thank him for everything he does for me.  He works  really hard to keep our  yard looking nice.  He also tells me I'm pretty on a daily basis, and I love it.

New look

Coming along. Time for bed though.

Adios!

Feeling huge

Everything is going great here.  I am starting to feel and look huge, but I guess that is pretty normal.  

I had a baby shower recently and we got a lot of nice things.  I'm starting to feel like we are a bit prepared for this little girl.  

Zak had fun putting together a pack N play that we received. We were going to put it back in the box until we realize that it took quite a while to put together. So now we are thinking we will just keep it set up and put it in the corner.

We received our crib and dressers for our nursery.  I think our nursery is pretty cute.  I will post pics once we finish decorating.

Only 8.5 weeks until our bundle of joy is scheduled to arrive!
