With 5 weeks until the estimated due date of our baby, we finally decided to get the nursery ready. Bryan started painting the room and last weekend Bryan's sister, Leslie, came to visit. She helped me make decisions regarding the room decor (i.e. it's better to have a crib set with a baby pattern on it than to have a light shaped like Winnie-the-Pooh). We found a Honeybee crib set that we really liked and decided to purchase accessories that will match the colors (instead of having everything with Honeybees on it ). Using Leslie's experience, we decided which clothes to wash and which ones to wait on since we don't know how big this baby is going to be and how fast he/she's going to grow. And then while they put the crib together, I stayed out of the way (and kept Diamond out of their hair) and cooked dinner and brownies (of course!)
So, now we're down to 27 days to the EDD and the room is about 75% ready. We just need some wall hangings and curtains and we'll be all set. Oh, we need the baby, too! (The baby's coming whether the room's done or not, so I'm not too worried about it!)
