Here we go: "second trimester energy"! If by energy, they mean, "with a little more gusto than first trimester," I guess that counts.
Our collective energy has been preparing our lives and home for our new son. We found out we were expecting a healthy baby boy about 3 weeks ago. (No big announcement on names. You'll have to wait until he's here!).
Last weekend, Baby's crib and dresser arrived. Josh didn't even need to assemble these! Jake was kind enough to pose in the pictures with me and my growing belly:
The dresser top is going to double as a changing table (hopefully):
And I know what you might be thinking right now: the crib and the dresser don't MATCH! Yes, that's true, folks. We went against the grain of matchy-matchy, just like the rest of our beautiful home. We're hoping to put an eclectic vibe in here, but without the assistance of a designer this time.
So what's next? We've ordered a rug and some wall frames which will showcase some vibrant art that Josh found online (and I, even with my risk-averse nature, agreed to this purchase). We also anticipate a glider and ottoman purchase soon -- we've got fabric samples on the way.
The rest is accessories and storage which is the stage that Josh and I usually drag our feet. Thank goodness for the remaining 3.75 months!
