work, work, and more work

I realize I missed last week's update. I have been so busy with work and baby stuff that I just haven't had the time to really do much else. I'm actually busy working while I'm at work. Imagine that! I also unplugged my computer at home so pretty much the only time I'm on a computer is at work. My birthing class ended this past Sunday and I had my breastfeeding class Monday night. I am officially done with baby classes! My hospital bags are already packed, I'm registered with the hospital, and things are moving right along. I still have some things to do at home and I have to find and meet with a pediatrician, but that's pretty much it. Oh, and I also have to get the car seat installed which is a big thing. But I still have 6 weeks left and I feel ahead of the game. This past Saturday my dad and I put the crib together. Ok, he put it together while I watched and handed him whatever screwdriver he needed! It fits perfectly in the space and I love how much storage it has. I have to give a big thanks to my grandmother for buying it. Such a generous and unexpected gift! Here's a picture (not a very good one, but I will post a better one soon):


I love the attached changing table since there was no way I would be able to make room for a separate one. I don't even have room for a dresser, so this is absolutely great. The hamper can come out and be replaced with 2 shelves which I'm thinking of doing since I have the winnie the pooh hamper already. There are also 3 more shelves around the side which you can't see where I have put extra diapers and bath supplies. There is also a drawer under the crib which does not attach to anything, but is great for storing extra sheets and blankets. And yes, I am having a boy and the walls are purple. I was not able to get the room painted blue over the summer like I had hoped, but I don't think he'll mind too much! This weekend I'm going to wash another load or 2 of his stuff (he's not even here yet and I've done at least 5 or 6 loads of laundry!) and clean up so I'll post more pictures once I'm done. I have no idea how much longer I'll be able to do these things, so I gotta do what I can now while I still feel like it!
