Nursery

We have FINALLY finished our nursery, just 6 days before our due date! It is whale and boat themed and we love it! The room took quite a bit of work to get it looking this good, but it was totally worth it! We now feel ready to have a baby! We have everything put together and we got new carpet all throughout the house, so we don't have to worry about Dominic crawling on nasty carpet. :)

How cute is this crib?!


We have everything stocked-diapers (mostly cloth diapers with some disposable), wipes, diaper rash cream, burp cloths, blankets, you name it! (In case you're wondering, that bucket is for dirty cloth diapers)

Getting Closer!

On January 22nd, my stepmom and mother in law threw me a great baby shower! There were fun games, some delicious food, and adorable decorations! I really appreciate all of the gifts that everyone got for little Dominic, we have pretty much everything we need now...except the baby!

This was my favorite decoration from the party, the Dominic letters! They will definitely be in the nursery.


Me and my dear friend Rachael and her 2 kiddos came to the shower (don't mind my chubby face:( )

This is me, my sister Hillery (who is also pregnant, she's 5 weeks behind me with a boy) and my niece Andrina

Me and Jamie

Poor Spencer has been SOOO busy with work lately and I have been feeling a little neglected. So he surprised me by sending this Cookie Bouquet to me at home! It's adorable, I love it! And the cookies were delicious too! Thanks honey! <3

We have also been working on the nursery lately, it's all done now except we still need new carpet. Which is such a pain, because we can't really put anything in the room or organize anything until we get carpet. So we have baby stuff scattered all over the house! lol I will post pictures when it's all done!

I still can't believe that my due date is in 20 days!!! It's hard to imagine that I am going to have a baby and that is what I feel moving and kicking me all the time. I was talking to Spencer about it just last night, we can't even begin to imagine what life will be like once he is here. Our lives are going to be SO different, but we can't wait for it. I have been trying to get us prepared to stay home for a few weeks and have tried to keep the house clean and stocked with food. I have made and froze a few meals, including a casserole, soup, cookies, and bread. So hopefully we don't have to get carry-out food from local restaurants too often.

Well that's about it for now, hopefully my next post will be announcing the birth of our baby boy! :)
