Cribs!

The nursery is almost ready! We had one crib together, but didn't get the second one ordered and delivered until last week. Randy's parents came down on Sunday and everyone helped put it together. It's so sweet to see two cribs in the room!









We're doing a pirate theme for the room because we found this cute little crib set with two pirates. It just looked like brothers to me! I want to paint a treasure map on the walls, but I'm not sure I'm going to be creative enough (or talented maybe) to pull it off. Hopefully I can find someone that is talented and they will see my vision. My mom is coming tomorrow so that she's here for the shower this weekend, and I plan to use her to help me organize the nursery. Right now everything we've gotten is just sitting in bags on the floor or the desk. I just don't know where to start! After this weekend though, I hope it's a functional nursery.

28 weeks and counting!

I can hardly believe we are so close to the babies being here! We went to the doctor last week and he says we will probably have them between 36 and 38 weeks. So only about 8 or 9 weeks to go! Randy is busy on the nursery and hopefully it will be painted and ready to decorate by this weekend. We have both cribs and we'll go ahead and put both in there even though they will sleep in just one crib for a while. My friend, Ellen, gave me the name of a girl that does really cute decorative painting and I think I'm going to ask her if she will paint a treasure map on the wall to go with the pirate theme. I'm getting excited!



This weekend we're having a garage sale to get rid of all of the extra stuff we seem to have accumulated in the last few years. I can't believe how much we have accumulated that we don't have room for. How does that happen? I'm ready for a get rid of the junk day!!!

We have also been busy redoing our kitchen over the last couple of weeks. As soon as it's finished (just the painting is left!) I will post some pictures. And, if I can get Randy to help me figure out the scanner, I will even post some before pics so you can compare.
