July has been busy and fun!
I have been working on my two BIG projects:
1. Getting things ready for baby at home.
2. Getting things ready for students at school.
Now that it is almost August and we're roughly 5 1/2 weeks away from the due date, I am finally starting to feel like these big projects are getting somewhere.
The nursery is really coming along and basically ready. I am refusing to say it's "finished" since I am feeling like there is still some work to be done with organization, but it is definitely ready and able to be used!
I worked on a few crafty projects in there over the last few weeks...
Exhibit A: Drawer Organizers
Definitely nesting in full swing...
Exhibit B: Burp Cloths
I've been holding on to these cloth diapers and fabric for months and
just now got around to actually sewing them together.
I was super proud of my sewing skills, since I really have none.
It took me an hour just to figure out how to thread the needle. HA!
Exhibit C: Mobile
No sewing involved!!
Unlike the burp cloths, this took me ALL day to make.
Kind of hard on the pregnant hips!
A few other July happenings...
We started childbirth classes!
We have one more and I can't decide whether they are
making me feel more prepared or just more scared.
I am imagining I will get to the point where I won't
be as freaked out by the hospital and I'll just be "ready".
We decided on a pediatrician!
We pre-registered at the hospital!
Now I guess we will officially be ready when Nora is...
We took maternity pictures!
Can't wait to see them and share them!
And I learned what Ford does all day while we are working... poor reindeer.
And that's all for now! I'm going to see what else I can accomplish this evening while I have the energy...
