Counting down the weeks!

     The closer we get to the baby the more fun things we have planned.  It makes the time fly by, which I love:)  Over the past few weeks I have had a huge urge to nest!!  I'm glad Ryan loves me and lets me do whatever I want.  We managed to rearrange our whole house in the space of two days.  We reorganzied storage so we can fit more baby stuff and furniture so we can fit the baby easier.  I feel so much better now!
     We had our first baby shower on Saturday and it was a blast! I'm already wondering where we're going to put everything.  A baby needs a lot of stuff.  Whether it's a boy or girl, just the essentials take up a ton of space.  I absolutely love looking through his outfits and sorting all the fun things he has already.      
     I really wanted to find a picture of Christ for the baby's room and we found the perfect one! I was with my friend Whitney when I bought it and we both think the little boy sitting next to Christ looks like a mini Ryan.  The photo is entitled "Grace of God" by Jay Bryant Ward.



     I'm trying to keep myself busy.  I am working on a car seat cover and I finished crocheting him a blanket a few months ago.  I love crocheting so I think he'll have one or two more by the time he gets here:) I'm also trying to get a few scrapbooking pages ready and my friend Caren told me she would help me.  She's wonderful at it!



     We are getting more and more excited everyday! Palmer is getting so big and he's such an active baby.  I am so grateful!  7 more weeks!!!!

  1. So cute. It is such an exciting time. I don't think I have to tell you to enjoy every moment of it!
    I love the picture of Christ that you chose. That is so sweet and perfect for a nursery. What a great idea. Congratulations and good luck with your prep.
    One think I cannot say enough - make sure your bag is packed weeks in advance. People used to say that to me and I'd say yeah yeah I know... but when Abi came two and a half weeks early my bag was not packed. :)
