Did I mention we are having a baby?! Yes, Madelynn Grace will (or should I say, SHOULD) be here on July 28th... I said something to Jawad the other day along the lines of-- "She will be here in 3 weeks!" and his response was that I sounded like she was coming in from out of town... Whatever... My belly is considered out of town! In fact, it's so large now that may as well have taken residence in Ladera Ranch... So, yes dear, she is coming in from out of town... I just hope her flight is not delayed... I do not think I can withstand ANY unnecessary time with swollen feet, a VERY sore lower back, and all the other fun things a pregnancy does to your body... I am ready to meet her! Now with that being said, she does need to wait until at least the 25th, due to my bestest best friend's wedding in San Diego- I CANNOT wait, but I do think I will break records for world's fattest bridesmaid! Hopefully she won't look back and regret asking me!!! :) Love ya, Trace!
We have finished enough of the home improvements, that I consider us to be done! Although really, we do have a lot more to finish... The kitchen cabinets and appliances need to be replaced- Appliances have been ordered, and cabinets need to be decided on. I, however, have retired from anything home improvement related for a few weeks, which I am certain will turn in to months with Maddie coming, but I just don't have it in me to deal with anything new right now... I mean, I am having a baby in 3 weeks! I need to nest and clean, not tear out and get dirty! Well, that's my thought process anyway. Don't get me wrong, I cannot wait to replace all the cabinets, but can't someone else deal with it while I go on vacation?!
Madelynn's room is now complete- sort of. I waited until the last minute to order the chair for her room, and when I say last minute, I mean I placed a special order that was 10 weeks out with only 11 weeks of pregnancy left. So we may or may not have the chair in her room prior to her delivery, or we may be picking it up on the way home from the hospital, but hey- at least I remembered to order it (something that does not come easy these days).
Here are a few pictures of what her room looks like now--
Crib bedding- butterflies and bunnies
Picture in your mind, will you- an imaginary chair to go in this corner
Only 3 weeks left people!
