It's all coming together

Okay, now that I have posted the pictures, I will finally get around to updating. As mentioned, the painters came and painted all the rooms in our house, except the two bathrooms. I was very pleased with their work and they finished in two days. It is amazing what a fresh coat of paint will do to your house. It looks completely different and gives it more character. We have arranged all the furniture back into place, hung a majority of the pictures back up on the walls, and all we need to do is hang the curtains. Adam is not a fan of hanging curtains, but he has promised me it will get done by the end of this weekend.

Mason is now in his new room. He is still in the crib and I plan to keep him in it until he learns how to climb out of it. For the most part, he just lifts his leg to the top of the railing. I don't think he would know what to do once he got over the railing, except drop. He doesn't have any problems sleeping in there and actually loves it. He is so excited anytime he is in his room now. I think it's because we moved all of his toys in there as well. Although, I make sure to have everything put away before nap or bedtime. I don't like clutter.


Tonight, Adam and our friend Rick, are supposed to put Taylor's crib together. My mom mailed off the bedding last weekend, so hopefully it will be here soon and I can piece the room together bit by bit. I am still deciding on whether or not to paint the changing table or leave it alone. Adam also needs to put the new glider together. He has become my little handy man these days:) Here is a sneak peak at the blanket my mom made. These are the two fabrics I chose to use in her bedding.


Last week I went in for my 33 week check up. I have been going every two weeks and after my next appointment, it will be every week. My weight is still on target, actually it's still a little less than it was with Mason. Blood pressure and everything else turned out fine. When I go in next week, they will check to see if I have dilated, do my Strep B test, and hopefully discuss our birthing options in more detail. Dr. Helliwell did mention that he is pro elective inductions. I was induced with Mason, but that was due to his size and the fact that he had taken off all of his vernix. Right now, I'm leaning towards going into labor naturally. I'm all for an induction if deemed medically necessary. I could change my mind, but that will depend how I feel as it gets closer to her due date.


My parents are still in the beginning stages of the adoption process. They did switch agencies and have completed there 23 page application with the new agency. I'm not sure what will follow after they accept the application, my guess is they will begin the classes they need to take. Once I know more, I will let you know.
