Ready for Baby

After having an ultrasound this last Tuesday, in which the baby was already measuring 8 lbs 6oz, the Doctor told me that they want to induce me Wednesday June 4th. We are excited! Here are some pictures of the nursery. Christian has had fun helping Mommy paint the tree and hang the pictures. He just doesn't like the idea of baby getting all his old baby toys. I keep checking the nursery for the missing toys and secretly returning them.

Thanks to Diane Westover for helping me with my quilt. She is so talented. And the sticker phrase was done by Joy Rowe. Isn't it cute. She found the quote to match my "Tree" theme. I had so much fun making the bedding and teaching myself how to sew. I can't believe he is almost here. We have even decided on his name Preston Micheal Kirk.

Here's Christian being Mommy's helper....

Beautiful nursery SOON to be filled with a beautiful new baby! I am so excited for you. There is nothing in the world like watching your children interact with each other. I hope the delivery goes smoothly. You'll be in my prayers. Love you!

This is so ironical. Today is June 4 and I actually thought about you giving birth when I woke up this morning. (It was mostly an image of you with a sweaty, flushed-red labor face we see in all the movies, but I was at least still thinking about you.)

Anyway, love the nursery. Love the name. Except you'll have to be careful because you're going to smear your two boys' names together when you're yelling at them and it'll come out "Prestian." :)

Marianne said...

Wow, love the nursery. I never would've guessed you'd be so domestic and stuff!
Sounds like you probably have a new baby now! Hope you're doing well and getting a couple hours of sleep in somewhere.
I'm glad you found me! I hope you don't mind if I add you as a friend so we can keep in touch!

Todd Family said...

congrats! you did an awesome job! preston is amazing! love you!

emmy said...

I love the tree! I am trying a bird thing for Cashman's room - I doubt it will be as cute!

I am assuming my delayed response on this entry also means you've had your baby! I can't wait for all the details!

Hope all is well new Mama! Can't wait to meet this little guy!

Lisa said...

Congratulations and welcome Preston! The nursery is so beautiful, a very happy place for your family to enjoy.
