Lilly's Room

I had a doctor's appointment today and there is not much to report. She said everything is looking good and she would like to wait a bit longer and let nature take it's course. If nothing has happened by January 5th we will induce that day.
Since I haven't put up any pictures of Lilly's room I thought I would post those. The first picture is a wall decal we put up above the changing table. If you ask Thomas, he will probably tell you that he hand painted it. Don't believe him. This Bible verse and her name above the crib are stick on wall decals.

Changing table. By the way my mom made the diaper stacker, curtains, pillow in the chair, dust ruffle, and memory board. She did such a great job! And she even got the top part of the diaper stacker monogrammed with her initials.
Rocking chair. As you can see our colors were mainly pink and green and yellow.


Curtains.



A friend at work painted the following two canvases. She is very talented and I was so thrilled that she wanted to do something for the nursery.



This one has the Bible verse at the bottom. James 1:17



Her crib.



The decals were great and pretty easy to put up. This is the one above her crib.




The canvas on the right I bought and it will go on the hospital door. After we leave the hospital, I will take it back and they will paint her information on it (weight, length, time, etc.). On the right is the memory board my mom made for her. These two are on the wall as you walk into the room on the right.

No Progress

Well, as the title suggests there has been no progress. It seems like Miss Lillian is pretty darn comfortable in Mama's tummy. I had my 37 week appointment today. I also had a sonogram. She is measuring about 7 pounds 6 ounces and she has a full head of hair. Looks like I will get to use all of those bows right away. I have another appointment next week so we will hope for progress.
On the bright side, I only have a day and a half left of school! Yay! I definitely could use a break! Not that I will be sitting around, I have a lot of last minute preparations before Lilly gets here. I plan on sending Wyatt to school next week, so hopefully I will get some rest too.
Wyatt was promoted at school this week. My big boy is growing up. They learn a lot more in the curriculum in this room. So I think he will learn a lot and have a lot of fun.

Thanksgiving 2010

We have been extremely busy lately. That is why you all have not heard from me in a while! School is winding down for the semester and for me a quite a while. So now I have a moment to sit and write a minute.

First of all for Miss Lillian, I had my 36 week check up yesterday. I cannot believe we have 4 weeks or less until we meet her! We have been busy getting everything ready for her. Anyway, the doctor said everything looks good with us. She said that nothing is happening yet. I go back next week and have a sonogram to check on her size and position.

Thanksgiving. For Thanksgiving we went to my parent house and had a nice quiet visit with my parents and grandparents. Well, as quiet as it gets with a 2 year old around. This first picture is of Wyatt playing like he's cooking these wooden apples my parents have at their house. As you can see he is totally focused on the task at hand.

Playing with Papa!
This is actually a toy Wyatt plays with when we go to my parents' house. It was mine when I was little!
