The 28 week update

7:50 PM

Well, we are getting more ready all the time for Baby Boysen to arrive. We have been given a crib, changing table, lots of clothing, and accessories, so I have been trying to start getting everything organized over the last couple of weeks. One item that I had still been looking for was a dresser/hutch combination for the nursery. I found one that would be absolutely perfect, except I couldn't talk Anthony into the $1400.00 price tag!!! So, in light of that, I have been looking at garage sales, goodwills, and on craigslist.com. All that craigslist searching has paid off! Last night I found a dresser set for a great deal. It has 2 dressers, a hutch, and a mirror and the cost was roughly the same as the tax would have been on the other "perfect" item. The dressers were in fabulous condition, so we were pretty excited. Now I can begin to get them set up and put clothes in them by size, etc!!! The set is about 30 years old, so I will update them a little by getting new knobs, but I should be able to replace all of them, and have it still cost less than $1400.00. ;-) I'll post pictures of them when I get them set up. I think my mom is coming down sometime this week, so hopefully we can get paint picked out and some of the furniture moved around in preparation for the baby coming. I am beginning to get bigger, and a bit more uncomfortable, and since I don't feel that is probably going to lessen any time soon, I think the earlier we can get things set up, the better. What do you think?

That is pretty much my only really exciting news. Now, in less exciting news.... This week has marked the beginning of a new feeling for me. Up to this point I have felt mostly like myself, with a little bambino inside. As of this week I am feeling kinda like our little bambino has taken over! I hardly even recognize myself, and can no longer see some parts of my body.... like my feet. Occasionally I catch a glimpse of my new figure in a mirror, and have to look again to register that it is really me. Any of you other moms ever feel like that? This is another one of those things that I don't think is going to lessen any time soon.

Well, that is certainly enough rambling for tonight. I am pretty sure that there are people checking these blips on my blog, so if you are reading this, feel free to leave a little comment. I love hearing from you all. Have a wonderful day!
