Severe nesting...check!

We painted the new nursery (aqua) Wednesday and yesterday. We're keeping the boys in their own rooms, and we're planning on keeping the baby in our room until around Thanksgiving. Andrew's crib converts to a toddler bed, so we bought a new crib from IKEA, along with some other furniture for the nursery. Check!

I pulled out all the newborn clothes that weren't on their last leg from the other two boys, and I washed, folded, and put them away for this baby. I was talking with my mother about this, and we were smiling about how Andrew's newborn clothes could still work for this baby even though Andrew was born in December. Living in Florida, even in December, we didn't have to have heavily warm onesies. I also raided Carter's for onesies and other clothing so that this baby wouldn't develop a complex about being the third boy with hand-me-downs. They didn't have Carter's in Gainesville, and I've been there so much since we moved here that one of the managers knows my name. It's an amazing children's store! Check!

I brought all the essentials I need out of storage and have made almost final preparations to our bedroom for the arrival that is coming in three weeks! Check!

Now I wait.. :)

My oldest patted my stomach this morning and said, "You take too long, hurry up!" :)

Today is my first baby's birthday -- he turned 21, where did the years go?
