Truckin' along!


Russ and I have been busy getting the baby room ready for our baby girl! We successfully cleaned out the office/future baby room and (thanks to Russ's mom) were able to sell our stuff at a garage sale. After that, we purchased new office furniture and officially moved the office down stairs to the study.

After searching high and low and reading countless crib reviews, we finally purchased a bedroom set for the baby. The bedroom set includes a crib (which converts to a toddler bed, then a full size bed), dresser/changing table and a night stand.


Also, after endless internet searching, I found the crib bedding that was perfect! I wanted something that was a little on the modern side and definitely not frilly and overly girly! I know I am having a girl...but really...tool fabric for a bed skirt looks like there is a tutu around the crib.

Russ and I got to play Goldilocks and tried out many different gliders and finally found one that was not too hard and not too soft! It was just right...
We haven't decided on what color the fabric is going to be yet!

We are now in the painting stage and have decided to go with a nice beige for the walls. I will post some pictures soon!

As for our little girl! We had our 20 week ultrasound 2 weeks ago and everything looks good! She is definitely active and I am feeling her all of the time! I swear she is training for her debut as a mixed martial arts fighter. Even Russ has gotten to feel her kicks and jabs!
22 weeks down...18 to go!!!!
