The Nursery!

The transformation is almost complete! Here is a picture of what the room looked like before (NASTY!...and did you notice the RED carpet and aqua trim??) and after. The ceiling has been raised, a new window installed, and my personal favorite...a skylight! The colors and the trim just look perfect. If you click on the after picture to make it bigger you can see the nursery items sewn by my very own sister, Sarah. (Blogger was having image issues when I first posted this, so enlarging both them will do more justice.) Her part also came out PERFECT! Just what I wanted. Thanks, sister! Only 16 more days of work left for me and I can't wait! We have finished up our "Prepared Child Birth" classes at the hospital and have just 2 more sessions in the Lamaze series. We are ready to meet our baby.

Josh has finally returned from a golf trip to Alabama. He got to take this mini-vacation with his dad and 10 other guys from our area. They had great weather and a good time shaking the rust off of their clubs. I am just glad to have him home. It was not very fun doing all the morning chores without him! He says that he is going to change into his old man habits this spring and play in the golf league instead of the church softball league in Madison. I hope that he will still play a few ball games, because I love to go and watch!

Last weekend was another shower for my side of the family. I loved seeing everyone and was especually excited to see my friend Emily! I got tons of cute things from everyone and I can't wait to get them all into the room. That is the goal for this weekend.
