Carter wants out

I think he's been trying to get out.....through my belly button. Yep, he's breaking free. I swear this boy feels like he's about to rip through my skin sometimes. It's a little uncomfortable but I love it. I woke up at 2:00 this morning and holy cow he was pushing his little feet or elbows or whatever out so much it was crazy.

This weekend we have some friends coming over to help paint the nursery. Yay! And one of my baby showers was pushed back so we have more time to get it done. My first baby shower (for friends/younger crowd) is on May 30th and the second one (for mainly family/older crowd) is the weekend of June 13th-14th. We haven't decided on a day yet for the second shower. So that leaves us with 4 weekend left (one of those being a 3 day weekend) to finish the nursery before we have a bunch of people over. We also have our childbirth class scheduled for Friday May 15th, after work from 6-9pm and Saturday May 16th from 9-1. I'm looking forward to that.

So after today I only have two more days of work until I get my little vacation. I usually count down my vacations not by how many days total, but by how many days I have left that I have to wake up early, lol. The guest room is all set up for Leah. She's coming over Tuesday night and we'll be leaving my house about 7:00-8:00 on Wednesday. Our flight leaves at 12:14 and we have a layover then we'll arrive in Burbank a little after 4:00.

I'll be posting the pictures of the progress of the nursery but here are some before pics;

Here's the closet



The ceiling after the sagging sheet rock was taken off


The ceiling after Grant re-sheet rocked it


The two windows (lots of natural light)


The current light fixture (I know you're jealous of this beauty)


And I'll leave with a cute picture. This was taken a few weeks back but I just saw it today. Carter and I love rockin' out to Rock Band.

I always have the funniest look on my face while playing Rock Band because I have to concentrate so hard. I must say though, I'm pretty good on the guitar. :)
