The Long Awaited Nursery

You may not have been bugging me for pictures of the nursery per se, but others have and you know who you are. :)

So, here are the long awaited pictures of the nursery. Warning: the nursery is not done. We're still figuring out what is going to go on the walls. But you'll get the general idea.

We do have one thing on the wall - a super great picture of Christ and a little boy. Makes me tear up every time I see it.






So that's it. It's really starting to feel nice and comfy in there. Hope Han Solo thinks so too!

I don't know if you noticed, but in the crib is a Hobbes stuffed animal. There's a story to go with the Hobbes. When I was little, I had a stuffed yellow dog named Sunshine. I still actually have Sunshine, but he looks a lot less fluffy than he once did. Brent had a stuffed bear that had no name but had the same jammies as he did. We both loved our stuffed animals so we thought maybe this little guy needed a "Sunshine". Brent decided that this was his job. Last week, he brought home this super duper cute crocheted Hobbes that is for Han Solo. So sweet and cute! And just the right colors!

So, do the pictures of the nursery get me out of posting pictures of myself this week? Sure hope so! Although one of the young women said I looked really pretty today. :) She then asked me how to dress like a dorky engineer....don't know if those are related but I thought I looked nice. (Next week is girl's camp and she is playing a dorky engineer in the skit. Makes more sense now, doesn't it?)

WOW...it sure looks different from when I was there!!! You guys did AWESOME! It is DARLING! I am so excited to see that you got all of your sewing done and it turned out just as you wanted. Great job and so fun and exciting! Han Solo will LOVE it I am sure!
But NO...you are not off the hook in sending a picture of yourself. I am too far away and want to be able to "enjoy" your pregnancy by the photos I get. Sorry :) The countdown is on!!!

Love you,
