40 Days To Go!

Time is flying by so fast.  I am now starting to feel pregnant.  Our lil guy is the size of a cantaloupe right now and I can tell!  Getting in and out of bed is a chore. I would just like to just stay there for as long as I can without having to hurry out to potty or get ready for work.  I never believed the whole going to the potty alot during the night was true. Holy Cow! That's probably why I am so tired because all I do is get up during the night.  Mini Cooper is almost 18 inches long and weighs about 4 3/4 lbs.  I have this feeling that he is going to be ready to meet us sooner than expected.  I had a check up last Friday and his heart rate was 142.  His heart rate has been very consistent and strong since day 1. That's always a relief to hear that.  My next appointment is for the 27th and Dr. Lloyd will doing some sort of bacterial culture test.  I'm guessing its routine.  Then, on the 28th, Robert and I will attend the birthing class/hospital tour at Texas Womens.  We are both nervous about this process. haha I know we will be fine, but we want to be prepared for what's about to happen.  It's an all day thing, and I can already tell how exhausting its going to be.  Dr. Lloyd said he will schedule an ultrasound once we are closer to D-Day.  He is making me anxious with that ultrasound. I want to see him already!  But, as time is flying by so fast...we will see him soon! 
Update on the nursery.  We have an assembled dresser! Yay! haha We also have the bassinet ready along with the carseat/stroller.  We have to learn how to put the carseat in the car, though.  I have always had trouble with those things. I gotta get it right this time, though. :-) We had our carpets cleaned by Sears 2 weeks ago and we were pleased with the service.  Our carpets look new!  We barricaded Presley in the kitchen to keep his dirty paws off the clean wet carpet.  This didn't last long because he whinned and whinned.  Here are a few pictures.

Project: Bassinet

Bassinet pretty much done.  The mobile was the last step.

Window Hardware from Pottery Barn.  I couldn't find anything I liked to match Dr. Seuss. I hope it works.

Project: Dresser- I love how he takes his time putting things together for his son.  2 hrs to complete this. That's why the crib is still in the box. haha But, at least we know its put together well. :-)

Finished Project Dresser.

So, nothing else to report. Just counting down. I am finishing up my second semester at UofH too. Last class is May 7th.  I'm praying I can get through it. 

Until next time...
