98% Done!


It's been a VERY productive weekend, and I'm happy to report that the baby's room is 98% done. There are just a couple of little things left to do. The shot above is of course the widest shot I can get of the room, so click on my flikr link to see the rest.

On Saturday, Jon and I spent the ENTIRE day working on the room. We went to Lowe's for closet shelf hardware and to Babies R Us for little stuff we still needed. Then when we got home, Jon hung the shelves and I did what seemed like 500 loads of baby laundry. It was so fun hanging all of her little clothes and putting everything away in her new little room.

Today I was up early again to finish what I didn't get done yesterday. I ran over to Ikea and bought (and then put together) the little table you see next to the chair. It is a perfect size...and it holds our favorite book "On the Night You Were Born." I can't get through it without bawling...which is exactly what happened this afternoon. How can you blame me? It has polar bears on it! And the book says that on the night the baby was born, the polar bears danced in celebration. Wouldn't you cry too? Jon had to bring me a whole box of kleenex.

We're all ready for you, little one. Five weeks to go!
