Whew...we've been busy around here. Buck and I both seem to have caught the nesting bug. The good news is that the house is super clean and organized. And, the bad news is that as soon as baby #2 arrives I'm sure that will all go out the window. A fresh start feels good, though.
We've gutted Fawn's playroom -- removing the "grown-up" furniture to make room for baby things and give Fawn some much needed additional space to play. Now our family room is looking a little frat house/bachelor pad with some mismatched furniture. Just a sign of the times with little ones around...there are plenty of years for a nice, decorated look.
The baby things have been moved from the attic and re-assembled. Buck's replenished his stash of batteries for all the gadgets too.
Car seat base is in -- after a stop at our friendly neighborhood fire department. You would have thought we'd have remembered after a year of using the thing, but better to know we've got it in correctly.
I've washed and organized all of the gender neutral clothing -- in all honesty basically all of the newborn and 0-3 month sized clothes without Fawn's name or monogram. I see no reason why a little girl (though I'm still convinced we're having a boy) couldn't wear a blue outfit to sleep.
Oh, there's still more to do -- I've got a couple more loads of laundry (baby towels, changing pads, sheets for the bassinet, baby blankets), I've got to pack the hospital bags (I've made a list and stocked up on travel sized toiletries, but it all needs to be assembled), and I need to make sure everything for Fawn is organized for my stay in the hospital. But, we're feeling more prepared, more excited, and yes more scared. Let the countdown begin...
