The Nursery

What a Weekend!
Sorry I haven't posted in a while! Its been a crazy week with our jeep in the shop and lots of time spent on youth stuff and keeping the house clean for showings... Please pray with us that God sells our house! We've been waiting to paint the nursery in hopes that it sells soon! Okay, the weekend...lets see...

Matt surprised me and bought our baby bedding and it was delivered this week! I was on the computer and had a question for Matt. He had snuck in and placed it on the bed behind me so when i turned around to go find him, I saw our adorable baby bedding! (Its really cute huh Angela?! Poor thing, she has such great taste and Jacob loves his so much--I just didn't love any other like I love this one)

This photo is NOT of our house--I'm just showing you what the BEDDING looks like...


Our baby dresser/changer combo came in on Friday and we picked it up at BabiesRUS...Of course Matt had to load it himself because the sales lady looked like a frail 80 year old who smoked a lot and had trouble just maneuvering the cart with the dresser on it...She went out to the truck with him and watched with the most helpful gaze she could muster. Matt was thinking, "What are you gonna do lady? The wind out here will more than likely blow you over and you're standing here like you want to help?" BabiesRUs should always have some burly men working to help pregger ladies and their hubbies! Matt pivoted it off the truck and its been in our garage until yesterday when Larry came to help Matt move it into the house on Sunday. Its so beautiful!



Saturday was a clean sweep/Steph's nesting day! It was so refreshing! We first emptied our closets of clothes we no longer wear and went through our storage bins and office & kitchen junk drawers. After throwing a lot of stuff away, packing 2 large garbage bags for Goodwill and 3 large stacks of old books (we are taking to the library)we consolidated and re-organized the storage bins and found better places for them in our closets. It looks so much better and is totally less cluttered. Matt washed the windows inside and out and I prepared for the sunday school lesson (We teach 9th and 10th grade) and baked cookies to take on our hospital visits later...

At 4pm we left the house and went to visit my uncle Frankie in his rehabilitation facility--He just had surgery and I took him a stuffed animal Eyeore which he loved and cuddled the whole time-(He is mentally retarded and loves stuffed animals =)

He then told me he was gonna buy me a baby crib from Kmart. Hes so sweet. After spending a few hours with him we got Starbucks and headed for Winter Park Memorial Hospital to visit our friends Blake and Melissa Tolson. Blake was injured at work on Thursday and had to have surgery on his back. He is in good spirits and was well enough to joke with us Saturday night. Keep them in your prayers as it will be a long recovery.

That (for the most part) =) was our exciting weekend and there's a lot going on this month so check back-I also have a small post i wrote this morning so keep reading down...NEW BABY BUMP PHOTOS BELOW! I hope you have a awesome week!
