Finishing the nursery! It has been so awesome to see it take shape this week. What’s left: a few odds and ends, decorating the walls, and clearing out the closet. I can’t wait to share pictures when it’s done!
Eating all the things. I can tell I am nine months pregnant because everything sounds SO DELICIOUS ALL THE TIME. I am still keeping things pretty healthy around here, but I am so enjoying eating when I am hungry. It is glorious! Melons and peaches and (stereotypically) kale are really floating my boat.
Listening to NPR while I work on stuff around the house. I finally figured out how to stream it on my phone, and this makes up for all the years I haven’t been able to get a clear signal on the radio or stereo.
Washing crib sheets and tiny baby things.
Walking in the mornings and evenings to beat the heat. Enjoying cool breezes when they come my way.
Packing our hospital bag.
Reading labor books and doing lots of pelvic rocks to try to turn the baby anterior.
Quilting away and hoping to finish before the baby comes.
Enjoying all the little kicks and squirms and I’m feeling throughout the day.
Feeling so excited, so happy, so in love with our little baby. So looking forward to meeting him!

I’m glad to see the little fella already has a well stocked bookcase with some interesting books. I look forward to the day I get to read to him.

Me too! Somehow the bookcase made it all very real to me. I just cannot wait to read to him:)

How fun to get to watch the nursery come alive! Love the little bookcase and that it has some books in it. The baskets are SO cute! Can’t wait to meet the little guy! Continue enjoying life, Cameron!

Thank you so much, Dianna! Can’t wait to see him happily toddling around this room, playing with his toys:)

Wonder what you’re next “Currently” entry will be like???I can’t wait to get in that nursery and play with the toys!

I think it will be very different indeed! Yes, some quality playing time is definitely in order!

Looks like I’m going to have to learn Russian to read some of those bedtime stories.

Haha, indeed! There are a few fairytales and children’s rhyming books, but also Matilda and Harry Potter. We’ll save those for when he gets bigger:)

Thank you! Definitely feeling closer every day, and feeling grateful to have taken care of everything that feels truly essential!
