Progress

So, we've been plugging along trying to get things ready for Miss Caroline to arrive in about 3 months. I feel pretty good about the progress we've made so far!

The least fun part of it all has been cleaning out and organizing all of the stuff that had been crammed into our guest bedroom when we moved in last summer...and never thought about again. Mark and I spent the entire weekend last weekend working on cleaning out and organizing! It's a great feeling to go through things and clean things out but it's definitely tedious and draining! So far, we have about 6 trash bags worth of things to take to Goodwill and there will likely be more on the horizon! And as we're able to get her future room cleaned out, we've been making progress on getting things ready for her arrival...i.e. putting together her crib, painting her changing table, trying to pick a paint color for the walls, etc.

Here are some pictures of a few things we've done and some cute baby clothes that my parents gave us when we went to visit them in Birmingham a few weeks ago.


Caroline's crib


Her changing table...

I found it on Craigslist. It was stained brown and not the prettiest but I saw potential and we painted it and replaced the knobs. :)


26 weeks pregnant

Can't wait to see her in this little dress next summer!
