Final Nesting

38 weeks today. For me, that means hardcore nesting.

I was blessed by my church family yesterday with a baby shower - and I really got all the last items I needed. Crib sheets, onesies bigger than 6 months, lotsa lotsa diapers and wipes.

After I got home from the shower, it had been agreed that Chris and I would have a major house cleaning, which would help me feel a TON better about bringing a baby home in a couple weeks. And so I was pleasantly surprised to be welcomed home to an apartment almost all the way cleaned, by a very proud husband. :) Turns out my brother (brother of the year award) was in our area for a little bit in the afternoon, came by to hang out with Chris and have lunch, and started cleaning up my mess of a kitchen when he was done. This combined with the fact that Chris was already planning his preemptive cleaning of the living room, bedroom and bathroom. They did a great job!

So instead of a really boring date night, we got to spend the evening going through baby gifts, watching The Lorax and having leftover Chinese and junk food.

So today finds me setting up baby girl's bassinet, exchanging a few gifts, writing some thank you's, and erranding.

As per my blogging schedule, next post might be introduction of our little girl!
