Baby's Room!

I kept holding this post off because of all the projects I wanted to get done! 

Now the last thing I have to do is make some artwork, but I have been so busy as of late.

So minus the artwork, (which I suppose can call for another post!) here is Baby Boy's room!

I did pack a hospital bag with some cute as heck burp rags, a blanket and baskets my mom made... I will have to post those sometime as well! Paige (my bestie who threw my baby shower) had the great idea to do books instead of cards, so now we have a collection. Brilliant idea, we forgot about doing picture books! 

I think my favorite part is the book collection :D As it grows, we will have to get a book shelf or figure out how to do the mounted bookshelves.

The quilt I made, and the IKEA chair that has a story behind it. Before my DBS surgery (all about it .:here:.) I was super stressed and nervous about having my brain operated on. Being in Denver, the best way Austin and his mom knew how to distract me was to take me to IKEA. We ended up sitting in these chairs *super comfy* and rocking the night away before digging into a ton of swedish meatballs before the "no eating after midnight" thing. Austin and I swore we were gonna get this chair when we had an excuse lol. Well, a baby a few months later was a good excuse! 

IKEA cart! It was my nursing book and supplies stand for a while, but Baby can borrow it for a while haha! SO many cute little onsies and clothes! 

We are choosing to use a bassinet for the time being because bassinet = light and easy to bring into the parent's room during the first few months! Austin's parents have a crib they are giving us and are fixing up for when he's a bit older --super sweet of them! 

I couldn't throw away Paige's decorations! Why not use them to hide some tupperware full of baby supplies?

One of the first things I bought from a friend from nursing school! Hand me downs and used stuff = loads of savings. 

There you have it! I'm 34 1/2 weeks and I swear the kid just lightened on me... (dropped or whatever they call the baby's head becoming engaged in my pelvis. Women's health is not my thing and will never be my thing haha) and I may or may not understand now what they mean by "lightning crotch" haha! It huuuurts! I am hoping he comes sooner than later, but you never know! Especially with your first they can be overdue. 

Hopefully not overdue and with poundage on him because with my DBS units, there has been talk between my doctors and anesthesiologists about not being able to do even an epidural without having to shut my units off. SO natural birth or units off.... that's a great choice! (not) I've been in contact with the DBS center though so hopefully I'll have more options open up. Heck, I'm just excited though to meet the little guy! So bring it on mother nature!! (but you know... be nice about it? Please?)

I will have to post the rest of our home once we clean up from the party! Just like the baby room, we still have to hang artwork but hey. :P 

Still working hard at the hospital, and hopefully my water won't break like a movie scene when I'm in pre-op sticking an IV in a patient hahahaha! I am super nervous about it happening like that, but no complaints! Still playing tennis and moving around (though waddling since Baby dropped!)

Can't wait to meet him!

XOXO
