Tick, Tick, Tick

It is getting to be that time. House rearranging projects are almost finished and with that coming to a close it means I can paint Madi's room :). I can't wait to set the furniture up and be able to sit and imagine what it will be like when she arrives. I know a lot of things will change and will possibly be more chaotic, but I also know it will be the happiest chaos I have ever encountered. I can't wait to get through this week and snag some free time to let the painting begin. We are on our way!!!!!

The Little Engine That Could

Sometimes life goes by really fast and sometimes it seems to crawl. Right now it is speeding by like lightning. But... no matter how fast life goes, my engine does not go at a faster speed these days. Still, we are making major progress.

With 13 1/2 weeks to go, we have the new crib, a shelving unit, changing table, stroller, car seat, and rocking chair for the nursery. While it is all still in disarray, I feel like we are ready enough that if she came we would survive. That is such a freeing feeling. There are a few major projects left to complete, but I am very excited to get those underway. We are going to clean out the office for my sister in law to move into and then I will be ready to paint and start organizing the babies room. I CAN NOT wait.... so much excitement.

On top of the baby fun, I have started my final semester of my college career. Fingers crossed... successful final semester and successful third trimester. This engine will have to keep on to win the prize. A beautiful baby girl, Madilynn Renee!
