38 Week Randoms

We are 38 weeks and 1 day!  At my doctor’s appointment this morning she said that I am 1 centimeter and 90% thinned and she stripped my membranes!  So now we are just waiting on Charlie Banks to make his debut!  After I post this I am headed to the airport to pick Jimmy up…WOOHOO!  That’s a big relief to have him home.  Below are some randoms that I have been up to the past few weeks while passing the time waiting on our baby boy…

 

I have been baking (and eating) a lot of Christmas cookies!  The first two batches were for a cookie exchange I went to at my friend Jordan’s moms house!  I came home with way too many other delicious cookies!

My mom came to town again!  We kept Harper while my sister and Jeff and most of the rest of my family was vacationing in St. Martin.  Jimmy and I were sad to miss the trip!  But my mom and I had a lot of fun with Harper and my mom was such a HUGE help around our house helping me get more settled.  She brought our finished curtains and bedding for the master bedroom and living room pillows.  Once again she has really outdone herself!  I am in love with everything she has made for us and I am sure she will be happy when I don’t have any more house projects for her.  We picked out fabric for the kitchen window seat, window seat pillows, kitchen valence, and master bath valence before she left town so those are next on the list.  The end is near!  She also helped me hang pictures…which was such a huge help and something I had been dreading so I am happy to have a few things on the wall at least.  I know Jimmy is happy he didn’t have to help with that as well…ha!

We made these appliqued outfits for Charlie Banks while my mom was here!  I am using the term we very lightly, as I was just a spectator, but it was fun!  Now we will see if he gets to wear them or if he will join us after Christmas…

This cutie pie kept us very busy, too!  She still refuses to take a bottle and she was teething!  She LOVES to be held and is very particular in that she does not want you to sit down while you are holding her!  HA!  She was happy to see her momma I know, but we were sad to see her go and my house has been too quiet since her and my mom left.

We are still waiting on the butcher block countertop, but the electricians did install the pendants over the island last night!  Slowly, but surely.
