Week Thirty Eight and Thirty Nine

Hello Friends!  It has been a while since I wrote last.  You probably thought I had the baby, huh?  Well, not yet...  but things are moving along (slowly but surely)!  I am dilated to a little past 1cm and have been feeling more contractions.  

Here I am at 39 weeks 2 days:

 1 week to go (hopefully)!

I have been living in this skirt:

It was my mom's when she was my age!  I love the floral print and of course the elastic waistband :).

I have been slowly at work on our nursery (with the big help of Josh of course).  
Here are a few photos of little boy's room:

The adorable bunting was sewn by friend Meg.  I love it!  Little boy's dresser was found at an antique store. 

 Here is a close-up of the changing pad cover I made:

rocker: from my parents ottoman: thrifted

 bookcase: Ikea

 I had so much fun creating these fabric embroidery hoops!  I also sewed the crib skirt.

 I had to include a picture of this diaper...isn't it SOO TINY!  The only thing cuter than little diapers are little baby butts :).  

I still want to add a few more details of decoration to his walls.  But, I'm okay with my projects being a work in progress :).  We are all ready for him to arrive!  We can't wait to hold him and kiss him and love on him.

I would appreciate prayers for patience as we wait, grace during labor, a healthy happy baby, and for our transition into parenthood.  Thank you friends!  If you don't hear from me for a few weeks it may be because we are spending endless hours with the new addition to our family!

Much Love to you all,

Jen

Week Twenty Eight

I am thrilled to have entered into the third trimester of pregnancy!  Babycakes is going to be here before we know it!  It has made me happy to feel him move around and kick more frequently (even if it is at 3am).  Josh and I sometimes just stare at my belly while laying in bed and watch him dance around.

Here are a few photos from the nursery:

I rocked in the glider while Josh assembled our new crib!

Some dear friends of mine had a baby shower for me on Saturday and blessed us with this crib and mattress! 

More photos of the baby shower are to come...
