Ready & Waiting

So, I think for the most part we are ready for our little guy to join us. We finally got the dresser/changing table to our house (after buying it and not having transportation to get it home). It is stuffed full of clothes that we have collected the last several months. I'm amazed at just how many clothes this little kid is going to have. I may not ever have to do laundry!!

I ordered the mattress for the bassinet I made a few years ago. I had to get it custom made to fit so that also meant I had to make sheets and bumpers to fit too. I think it turned out pretty cute thanks to the fabric my mom got for me. I also made a yellow sheet for it so I have two.

And, the cradle is all set up in our room. Brian's parents used this when he was a baby and his sister has used it for her 5 kids and is now passing it down. It's very cute and I am excited to have it for our bedroom until he goes into the crib.
My official due date is on Wednesday, September 30th but I feel like I could go any minute sometimes. I've been slowly starting to progress but only time will tell when our son will join us. I'm just hoping it's sooner rather than later.

My dad flies into town today for a business trip and then my mom flies in on Friday to stay with us for 2 weeks. I'm really grateful that she's able to come and help me. I really hope my dad will be able to see the baby before he leaves (Thursday, the day after my due date and the day before my mom comes). Here's to hoping he's not too late!! I guess now I'd better get packing my bag for when it really does happen!
