Hello All~

Well, not too much going on lately. In our typical slow fashion we finally started getting the spare room cleaned out in an attempt to move Miles into it. Miles bedroom is closer to ours and is pretty small, so we figure it would be better for Marly. Drew has to finish up with some sanding and a coat of paint and then it is good to go. So, hopefully just another two weekends of getting Miles moved and set up and then we can get to painting Marly's room. Miles is excited to get the bigger room, he needs the space!

My mom saved us my little sister's crib and matching bedside cradle which are currently in the hallway. Between those,the little gifts people keep sending & my little sisters baby wardrobe we inherited, the hallway is jam packed! I cannot wait to get the crib set up and start in on the decorating/organizing. It will be a nice project for me to zone out on. I think nesting is setting in.

I literally went crazy the last few weeks looking all over the Internet for crib bedding sets. It drove me crazy mostly because I did not like what I saw out there. I am extremely picky we found out. :) Either they were super typical cheesy themed or super-duper expensive. Our happy medium was at Pottery Barn kids. Still a bit more pricey than we like, but we BOTH really agreed on their style.

We found we want to mix and match two of their sets..Drew liked the Garden Sprouts crib bedding and I liked the Penelope (birdie) set. So, were doing the Garden sprouts crib set with the birdie sheets and a few birdie decorations for accents. Just a little bit of a theme. I don't want her feeling like she is waking up in a bird cage. haha...

Anyway, Marly is growing rapidly and so is my belly of course. Drew now has to help pull me up off the couch and I am preferring my Vans slip on tennie's rather than lace up shoe's. Strangers and co-workers have begun to rub my belly whenever they want. It was cute at first. I also noticed that Marly usually wakes up about an hour after I get to work. It's been that way the last few weeks. I am absolutely in love with her movements.

We have another monthly doctor's appointment on the 24th and then the doctor wants to do a follow up ultrasound to check on my low sitting Placenta. I'm hoping all is well with that as you can imagine!

Above are a few pics of the bedding/decoration I stole from the catalog and another one Drew took of me today before we went to check out Pottery Barn .

Love to you all!
