My shy baby boy...

So I am getting more and more excited that this pregnancy is almost over. I can't wait to see our baby boy. I get so anxious every time I feel him, which is CONSTANTLY. This little boy inside of me NEVER stops moving and kicking and hitting, etc. He is moving in the middle of the day, in the middle of the night, you name it! So a few days ago, we went to have another 4D Ultrasound done. I wanted to do it now, because I hear that if you wait til the end, they look a little squished and weird in you, and I heard that 28-30 weeks is perfect (I am 28 weeks). So we got to the place, and of course my whole family came (sisters, parents, brother-in-law) and we all sat down to see little Connor. And guess what? He would NOT wake up, which wouldn't have been too horrible, but he had his leg up so his foot was covering his face, and he also had both hands, holding on to his foot. We couldn't see him at all! It was very cute and all, seeing him that way, lol, but for 30 minutes the technician moved me around, we talked to him, I did squats... and NOTHING... he wouldn't budge. Soooo... they rescheduled me for next Monday, where I hope that he's awake, or at least with no foot or hand covering his face! :-)

Me at about 25 weeks or so



Aaron and I have been so excited about getting Connor's room all ready and together. My mom has been helping us out a lot too, with decorating and everything in between. I picked out a bedroom set before I even knew that it was a boy, because there is sage green, blue, yellow, peach, and purple in it... and it's pretty neutral so that I could have made it more girly or more like we ended up having it. It's a brand by Kidsline that is no longer even made, so I have found everything we have for his room on Craigslist, which is awesome, because it's been about a tenth of the price that I would have paid for it in the store. We're ALMOST done with his room. And now I find myself just going in there and sitting in the glider, or laying on the bed... just looking at everything in there. We still have to paint a giraffe on the wall, but I will post that once it's done.

This was actually a crib skirt... but with the crib that we got, it can't have a skirt... and the curtains that came with the set, we didn't like. So me and my mom sewed new curtains :-)


The set is jungle animals



Here's Aaron, all excited when the room was finally done. Well, not totally done. We haven't finished the bedskirt for the twin bed that my mom and I are sewing also... plus the giraffe on the wall.

That's a great idea to have a twin d=bed in there also. To lay in and feed him at night and stuff. Cute room!
