Over Halloween weekend we wanted to carve a pumpkin and decided we would test our creative abilities. It turned out really cute and it was a fun little project for us to work on together. We are so excited to be on this journey together, and already have so much love for our baby. We don't want to sound pompous, but we think our baby is going to be very lucky to be welcomed into such a loving home between two people very much in love with one another.
Finally some early pictures of the nursery. More to follow as updates occur, but for now here is a picture of the dresser/armoire piece (along with the proud parents-to-be).
Here is a photo of the crib were hopefully our baby will spend many a peaceful nights! We are happy to report that since this picture was taken we have purchased a mattress, so Peanut will not have to sleep on those coils. :)
The only other news has been the increased activity of Peanut. Last week, I felt a kick from the outside of my belly. So I grabbed Tim's hand and placed it on my belly and asked him if he could feel anything each time I felt a kick or movement. Unfortunately he wasn't able to feel anything stronger than a twitch, but I told him there is plenty of time. During the last couple of weeks, Peanut has been pretty active reminding Mommy that the growth is continuing. Most of the movement I notice is during work while I'm sitting and during the evening while relaxing or lying in bed. It is incredible how each day brings new sensations of movement, and exciting emotions about our future! Crazy to think that this week we begin our 6th month, time is flying by and I have a feeling it will only go by faster these next few months.
