Single digits now....

Today is officially the 30 week mark for us! It is SO hard to believe that this pregnancy has gone by so quickly and that in less than 10 weeks we are going to have a little boy joining our clan. Of course we want him to cook a little longer, but as far as being ready I think we are good to go! We still need to turn Lily's lavender room into a safari room for the two of them but that will be done on Labor Day weekend when she can stay at grandma's for the day. We did go and register at Babies R Us for the few things that we do need, but thankfully we have all of the big things and just need some BOY blankets and such as everything I own from prior babies is PINK PINK PINK! I did get super crafty and painted some letters to hang above his crib and Lil's bed to match the bedding and I am pretty proud of that! We are getting so excited and can't wait to meet him!

STOP THE INSANITY

So now that we know this is a boy and we kinda have a name picked out for him it is very easy to sit and daydream about him and what he will be like. AND it makes me want to get everything ready for when he comes RIGHT NOW. Like I said in a previous post it has been so much fun for me to go into stores looking for little boy clothes- it is SO much different than all of the pink we are used to! However, with everything I have bought and then the things that Meema and Aunt Jaime are adding to it his closet shelf is filling up fast!


Some of the stuff is just hard to resist. We knew he needed an outfit to come home in and Gymboree had the MOST adorable little dog outfit with matching hat so here is what he will be wearing home from the hospital:

And then I have to say my heart melted when I saw this one:

That will definitely be one that Daddy favors with the little owls on it :) We also found a great deal on a bassinet on Craigslist so we got it all washed and cleaned up to go in our room:


We did decide on the crib bedding and it came last week. Here is a link: http://www.babysupermall.com/main/products/lai/lai12006v.html

The plan is for Meema to whisk Lily away for a weekend in September and when she comes home her lavender room will be transformed into a jungle room for the both of them. She is so so excited about a baby brother so I hope that she is ok with that!

I have run out of things to buy that we NEED. The girls at work are going to do a little shower for me so I know I will be all set on clothes and things and we have all the necessities from Lily so now all we do is enjoy this time and wait :) We have been having such a leisurely summer with days at the pool and family time.


Oh, and BTW we had a dr appt last week and will tentatively schedule this guys arrival for October 13th (unless of course he has other plans). Those of you who want to visit around then let me know so we can coordinate all of the help :)
