N is for nesting...


(These are pretty flowers from my shower!)

I've been busy nesting and acting on the very strong urges to get everything "perfect" before Marseille gets here! Too bad my body can't keep up with all that I want to get done. Monday, I recovered from the past couple of busy weeks.

I spent all of Tuesday going through Bentley's closet, packing away and re-organizing his clothes, plus getting Marseille's clothes ready. After several loads of laundry and lots of folding and organizing, they have one clean closet. Let's see how long that lasts! Even all of the burp cloths are washed and in a basket ready to be spit up on! When Danny got home, he helped me clean the whole house! Whew! I was wiped and so grateful for his help.

Yesterday, it was back to the nursery. The changing table now has two diaper sizes on it! It got re-vamped and I'm getting ready to make a cover for it (so you can't see all the stuff). I did get to santize some of Bentley's toys, but I have a long way to go. His toys need to be sorted through to be cleaned and some given away to others having babies. Thankfully, most all the toys have been hand-me-downs from many people, so it's time to share the wealth!

I can't believe that I am three weeks away from the being full term. (That is when I had Bentley!) I told Danny that and he thought that was pretty scarry! I'm so thankful that this has been such an easy pregnacy. That is a huge blessing. I'm ready to have Marseille, but I'm not to the stage where I'm over it. The belly is getting in the way of a lot of things, but I do love watching it move and feeling all the movement of life. I really do enjoy being pregnant!

By the way, my shower was wonderful. I had a great time and all the food was great! Marseille mostly got clothes... which is what I was hoping for. We just need to get a few more things and then the girl will be set! Thank you all for everything. Thank you to Ashley for giving me the shower and to my care group for all the yummy food! I'll post some pictures when I get them from Ashley :)

Here are some pictures of the nursery!
Bentley loves these flowers that Ashley and I made for my shower:

You have been a busy lady! The flowers look good in the babies' room. I will have shower pictures for you on Sunday. :)
