32w0d - Spare Some Change?

Baby girl already has her first piggy bank. This was a fun project that I did a couple of weekends ago. There's a paint your own pottery place here in town and I was able to customize the finish to match the room and decor. The base color is the palest yellow which matches the crib blanket (you can see it sitting on the blanket in the pictures) and the polka dots also pull the rest of the colors from the bedding. It's fun having a few of these projects to help personalize her space.



Just for reference, here's the bedding:


Believe it or not, we are still waiting on the nursery furniture. When we ordered it, we were told 6-8 weeks. This Sunday will be 12 weeks. Turns out the people who are making it are just a small 2 person company and they found themselves swamped with orders and have gotten way behind. Unfortunately, at this point, we can't even get an estimated arrival date. Now that we're down to 8 weeks! and the weather is nice, we're itching to get the furniture so we can get it finished. Oh yeah, it's coming unfinished, so even after it comes, it isn't going straight to the room. At least baby girl has a crib to sleep in. We might just have to make due without the dressers and book shelf for a while.

Next week it's back to the doctor. Hopefully it'll be another quick appointment with nothing but good news. For the most part, I'm still feeling fantastic. Every now and then baby girl stretches out and uses up every bit of space she has, and that hurts a bit, but other than that, still no real complaints. I just can't believe I'm down to about 8 weeks left.

OMG! That turned out so cute. Can't wait for the big shower on Sunday. You deserve to be showered in so many ways!
