To-Do List

I realized this morning that I hadn’t updated in 2 weeks. There really hasn’t been much going on. Baby girl gets stronger and more active (and bigger) everyday, so I feel her moving a lot. I read recently that some of the movements I feel are probably hiccups. I can’t believe the time is going so fast. The first trimester was a little slow, the second trimester flew, and now we’re starting the third. I’m guessing the time will pass quickly, since there is more to do in the last 3 months. My next prenatal appointment is next week, and after that I’ll start going every 2 weeks instead of every 4. The following week, we start our birthing classes. And, of course, there are things to do like meet with pediatricians, figure out childcare (Please be praying for that one. I would much rather stay home with her), finish our house (we’re about ready to move into half, but still have to finish the other half), go to baby showers, and decorate her space. And all of that while working full-time. Whew!

Speaking of decorating, we recently came in possession of a crib bedding set. We bought one a month or two ago from a friend of a friend. We didn’t love it, but it was cute, and it was a great price. Dean thought, if nothing else, it would be nice to have a backup. It is pale pink & green, with some obscure japanese drawings.  And then, last weekend, another set came into our lives.  I like it so much better and it was a gift, so the price was right.  I don't have pics yet, but just to give you an idea:

It's partly this fabric.











And it's partly this fabric. 

And it's trimmed in bright pink.  It's just more my style.  And, I feel like I have more decorating options.
