The Waiting Game!

Well, my due date is officially one week from Wednesday and I continue to grow anxious for any sign from our precious girl that she is ready to make her debut. The past two doctor's appointments have confirmed zero progress and last week doc said her head was still "way up in Oklahoma." She is head down though, and that's good news. She is apparently content to remain in her familiar surroundings for now - which is fine. I keep telling her I'm ready when she is. I'm anxious to see if Thursday's appointment shows any changes!

The nursery is about 98% complete. We just need to hang some pictures and the curtain rod & curtain. Here are some pictures of the progression. Enjoy! We'd like to say a special thanks to everyone who helped with the nursery. Pat - thanks for helping us paint the walls. Dad - thanks for helping us hang and paint the bead board. Laurie & Jay - thank you for your help painting as well. And my Michael - thank you for being patient with me while hanging the border and while I bugged - o.k. nagged - you to get the bed put together and finish everything up! You did a great job. Our daughter is going to love her room!

Hope you all have a great week! We hope to have news very soon!

We got the changing table in a shop in downtown McKinney - they have a few antiques and very cute nursery furniture, baby clothes etc...We wanted something we could use even after babies are grown. :-)
