Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep...

The baby officially has a nursery now. We got the crib put together today and I ironed all the items and got it all put together. Hung a few things. Moved things under the crib for storing. It is all done and ready to go. It looks really nice. Kiki has good taste, doesn't she???

After I got the crib all done, Emma came into the room. She was looking at the crib and said, "I can just imagine the baby laying in there Mom. Won't the baby be so cute laying in there?" So sweet. Let us just hope she remembers that when the baby is screaming.....

Without further ado.......I give you the nursery. (please note that if this baby is a girl, I will girl up the bug wall by adding some pink flowers and possibly painting the dragonflies pink as well, we will see.....)

Window treatments (infant car seat and bouncy seat as well)

Dresser with wall hanging

Bug wall

Crib wall

Close up of the bedding

So there you have it. The baby's room. Nine more days to go.......

Sometimes There Are No Words

Last night I met a new friend. Let me preface this by saying I have made exactly ONE new friend in the last ten years. This makes number two. My Babycenter and Blogging friend Amanda , was having a conference in KC. We made plans to meet up. I felt a bit odd. Here I was making plans to meet someone I only knew from the Net. But Mark thought it was perfectly great and even said for me to stay out as long as I wanted. He said it was not as if I was meeting up with someone I saw often. Stay out and talk and have fun. So I did. I made plans to meet with Amanda. I knew we had a lot in common. Both from the board and from reading her blog. I knew she was someone who if she lived closer to me we could hang out. But I was a bit apprehensive. Here was someone who only knew me through the computer. So many what if's , right? Mark was actually the one who said I should meet with her, if only for a little while. So, I picked Amanda up at her hotel and off we went to Fooleries. Great place to ...

Welcome, Little One

Both mommy and baby are doing very well. These are just a few from earlier today. More to follow later.

And Just Like That.....

I made the fatal mistake of reading reviews and articles before watching a single episode of the show. I knew full well I would watch every episode regardless. I read anyway. Spoilers? Not bothered. Let me give some back story here. At 17/18 my dream had been to go to a big city (Chicago was my thinking at the time), get my degree in journalism/editing/publishing and go work at a big time magazine. Keep in mind we are talking about the mid 90's here so the idea that magazines would cease to be relevant was not even on my radar. I had been editor of my high school yearbook and unbeknownst to me at the time, we were actually doing the yearbook by coding and would get printouts hoping we had coded copy correctly. I just typed the copy I was supposed to type with the weird little codes that had been given to me on a piece of paper. I would later discover this was actually HTML code we were doing. Who knew?
