Stuff for the Baby's Room

I haven't decorated the baby's room yet, but I have been busy collecting and making different things I want to go in it. I dropped off the quilt to have it top stitched on Tuesday, so I can't show you a picture of it yet. I finished painting last weekend... it was horrible. I hate painting. Thankfully I finished. I just need Francie to come out here and help me put it all together some weekend. She is much better at decorating than I am. I still need a lot more cute stuff, but at least I've started. Adam has an orange surfboard that he wants to hang in there. Not sure how that's going to look but I'm trying to stay optimistic that it will look cute. Plus, there is a lot of orange in his bedding. I'll keep you posted when the bedding is done. I might have to get started on the bumper this weekend. Wish me luck. Why do I still rely on my mom to make the curtains? It's not like I'm not capable. I made his pillows and bedding and plan to do his bumper for goodness sakes, why don't I feel like making the curtains? It doesn't help that I saw the perfect ones in potterybarn that are way too expensive (even if I was rich, it would be a waste of money). This boy is really stretching my belly out. I have felt really good this whole pregnancy until I got front heavy! Now I feel like I'm going to burst at the seams. I still have a long ways to go. He still has to get much bigger! I'm so glad there is only one in there. I still feel great, don't get me wrong, it's just so strange to feel so full and crowded all the time. I feel kind of like I do after Thanksgiving dinner times 2.

I really love it all! And the color of the room is awesome! I think it's all going to come together prefectly! As for the baby part... how much more is he going to grow? I sleep on my belly so I knwo that's going to be hard for me, if I can't continue to do that, when I get prego! Oh, I can't wait to see how cute he is!

Nat it is going to look so cute! Hey if you want to use one of my mattresses I am sure tony will be out of the crib by the time you need it. He has been sleeping in a big bed here on vacation so I am thinking about switching him over to a big boy bed when we get back.
