Nesting!

All of you are aware we are about to add a new little chick to our nest here in the next few days... So I thought a blog would be a cool way to keep everyone from back home updated about life with a new little one!

We have been nesting up a storm (Doug too!) preparing for the little baby to arrive. Doug has repainted several rooms & the house is finally getting seriously decorated after 3 years of living here. :) About time I guess! Below are pics of some of our transformations...

First, for the nursery: Kristin came over & helped me put up these really cute owl decals. The room was already painted blue and since I *abhor* painting, we figured blue would be an excellent color for the nursery! If the baby turns out to have girl parts, then we are going to "chick it up" by adding in a lot of purple on the walls & bedding. Here are a few pics of the nursery:

EVERY time I look at these I sing "three little birds, pitch by my doorstep, singing sweet songs, of melodies pure & true..." in my head.


I think we are going to put a bookshelf in the corner & paint grass & flowers & stuff by the bottom of the tree.


Now all we need is a sweet little baby!!!!

Most of you are aware we are having the baby at home. We have set up the spare bedroom as a birthing room. Since relaxing is very important, we've turned it into sort of a meditation room. Thought I would include a few pics of that too!





And what birthing room would be complete without a kiddie pool?!?!



We are just sitting around waiting for the little one to make it's debut! I'll definitely post an entry soon with pics of the baby's arrival!
