Fast forward to month 8.5 of pregnancy and things are looking a little bit different! I am rounding into the final days at work--the 29th is my last official day, and the nursery isn't anywhere near ready. Compound this all with the fact that we just survived the second weekend heatwave of the year, and I am really starting to wonder if we are going to be ready in time! :)
Yesterday while I was at work, Allen finished painting the nursery. I can't believe how great it turned out--especially since he was stuck in the hottest room of the house on the hottest day of the year thus far. At this point, the crib was ready to move into the baby's room and Allen decided that he would assemble it this morning. He brought the crib up to the room in pieces and got to work while I ran errands for the week. As our luck would have it, the crib company sent the complete wrong set of screws for the assembly process and as a result, the crib looks like this:
We have contacted both the crib manufacturer and the store where it was purchased and hope to have the correct set within the next few days...
In other news...
The carseat has been ordered and is "en route"--last I checked, it was in Illinois (gotta love UPS online tracking!). I have started washing the baby's clothes and attempted to organize everything as best as possible. Scout likes to lay near the plastic bins that hold all the clothes and blankets.
We have been feeling bad for both dogs (Scout especially) during the heatwave, so while out at dinner with friends this evening, we decided to leave her in the air conditioned house with Peter. When we came home, she left the following for us:
In case it isn't clear, those WERE my black Reef flip-flops. Thanks Scout.
