The Nursery

Here are a few photos of the nursery. We're almost done and just need to hang a few things and get some curtains and we'll be all set for baby. As you can see, our dog Hatcher loves to lay on the rug in there and keep and eye on things, so Baby T will be well looked after.

34 Weeks!

We are now in the final countdown to meet Baby T! Matt and I are very excited. We have our first baby shower this weekend being given by our neighbors and we're really looking forward to it. And since it's across the street, I don't even have to be a designated driver! I don't know if any of you are as shocked at the size of my belly as I was when I saw this picture (it's a lot different looking down on it rather than the side view from the photo.) Anyway, thanks to all of you who shared Happy Mother-to-be Day wishes, it was great! Weird, but great.

6 weeks and counting...

Hi everyone:

This week marks 33 weeks in, so roughly (and hopefully) only six more weeks to go until we meet Baby T! Things are going great on this end, just putting some final touches on the nursery--thanks to Grammy (my mom)--who custom-made our wonderful baby bedding, and who came to Dallas and helped to organize and clean while she was here. I'm planning on riding it out at work until the bitter end so I can spend the whole four months of maternity leave with baby. I will return to work in November, but just 20 hours a week, so I'll be a part-time stay-at-home mom, which I'm very excited and nervous about. More pics to come soon...
