Let the Fun Begin

So the countdown is on, and its time to get going on the nursery. Im so excited, cuz I have never been able to paint a room the way I want it, or to really take the time to decorate it the way I would like. The only sad part is that Im not even the one doing the painting, my mother-in-law is doing it for me. I was gonna wait till it was completely finished before I posted pictures, but I guess people need something to read in their spare time lol, so I am providing updates for their enjoyment. So far we have only painted, as we are still waiting on the decals and carpet.

So, here are a few before pictures....

And a few after pictures.....

ITS GREEEEEN!!!!!!!

So the room is going to be green, with pink double-layer curtains. There will be a tree wall decal on the wall to the left of the window in the picture, where the crib and change table will be, which has pink/white/and green flower and ladybug bedding. We are also going to have a dark green glider, and pink flower decals and pink shelves. I am sooo excited for it to be finished!!!!

I think this little girl is really excited too, because she is moving around like crazy still. Its such a strange/awesome feeling. I am measuring at 2 weeks ahead of what I should be, so hopefully that means that she is gonna be here sooner. We will see what my doc says at my next appointment, which is in three weeks instead of four. 

Daddy is getting really excited too, and can't wait for our little munchkin to finally be here. He told me yesterday that he plans to install the carseat on November 16th, and then practice putting it in the car and taking it out whenever we go somewhere. We are also going to prenatal classes, which are pretty much a gongshow lol. But I like going to them because it makes me feel like Ben is being included and is getting more settled into the daddy role, even though she is not here yet. Some of the things we talk about in that class are straaange! But its fun, and everyone is always laughing. 

Oh, I guess I could put a few bump pictures on here too that I have taken thus far :)

15 weeks

22 weeks

And...POP! 29 weeks!

I dont even feel that big, or think that I look that big, but when I took this picture this afternoon, I was like "Holy crap Ben, Im FAT!"  Ben is pretty excited about that, because he has been waiting for me to really look pregnant right from the beginning. I dont really look this big all the time, I think it is just the picture and the dress. But oh well. its still a cute little bump :) Thats all for now!
