1 Month Left!!

My due date (Jan 13th) is officially one month away! It's hard to believe it's almost time to meet Baby Cincy. Part of me is ready to not be pregnant any more and part of me is hoping for more time because I have so much more to do! Each week seems to be going by faster and faster - especially with Christmas approaching. I'm going to have to give up sending Christmas cards and baking Christmas cookies this year because I don't have the energy to get them done along with everything else. Sorry!

Although my to-do list feels very long, my list of accomplishments is getting longer too. In November we completed our child birth classes and just last week we learned infant & adult CPR. The nursery is almost fully decorated and stocked (see pictures below) thanks to our generous friends and family. There are still a few things that need to be purchased - but not many. We were very fortunate to receive as many baby shower gifts as we did. Now that she is almost 36 weeks and we have all the necessary items, Baby Cincy can arrive any time she likes. Though it would be nice to have her go full term and space her birthday a few weeks away from Christmas. As long as she's healthy she can pick any birth day she wants. :)

BEFORE: The the room was very white and empty

AFTER: Now the room is full of color and STUFF :)

Matt did a great job on all the painting. I was so happy he was willing to do the square design. We only had to buy 3 of the paint colors! The rest were colors left over from other rooms in our house. It was a lot of work but I think it makes the room really fun.

After Baby Cincy is born I'm going to hang letters that spell her name and also hang some shelves and picture frames to fill in the solid pink parts of the walls.
