Started this post Tuesday.. didn't finish. But I'm posting it anyway! :)
Today marks 9 weeks til our due date.
Single digits.
Daddy is so excited, Mommy is so anxious.
Both Mommy and Daddy are feeling a great sense of urgency in finishing our baby preparations!
Because we only have 9 weeks or less left.
Yes, or less. I will not be going past my due date. You can mark my words. :)
Yesterday I purchased a small shelf for Camy's room. I needed to get some kind of shelf because our shower guests were asked to bring a copy of their favorite childhood book to start Camy's library (which I am SO excited about, by the way) and we needed some place to keep all these books. The shelf I got has 6 cubes, so we got 3 canvas baskets for toy storage and will use the other 3 cubes for the books and things.
I put the shelf together all by myself (go me!) and set it up underneath the window. It will serve as our chair-side table as well, with a lamp on top for midnight rocking/nursing sessions. [Note: Yep, we decided to put the rocker in the nursery after all. It will be a tight fit in there, but I think it will be best to have the chair in the nursery for convenience in the beginning and for establishing a bedtime routine as she gets older. We don't want to have to walk across the house with her after rocking/soothing her.]
I also picked up a beautiful frame to mat/frame this print we purchased on etsy way back when. I love it! This will hang above her dresser/changing table, with a floating ledge beneath it for her name letter blocks (obviously her blocks spell "Camryn") and any other small trinkets/decorations we may end up with.
Now all we need to purchase is the mattress and bedding, and some kind of curtains.
And maybe a rug.
And a mobile.
And a lamp.
And a sound machine.
Oh, boy.
