Nursery Pics

The nursery is pretty much done. Most all of the finishing touches in place. Here are some pictures of the room our little boy will call home!
The furniture is a bit big for the room & we won't always have this much stuff in here, but there isn't room to put it anywhere else at the moment. The stroller & bouncy seat will be relocated once he arrives.
The green bassinet will probably be in our room by our bed or in the living room most of the time.
I'm going to get the letters of his name painted barn red to hang above the crib. I plan to get those this week.
I absolutely LOVE these shelves! They are so cute & obviously perfect for this sports-themed room! Anyone who knows Brian knows that this little guy will have sports in his genes.

I'm still trying to figure out what to put on these shelves. I'll probably get Brian's baseball glove to go up there & a few other sports-related things.

These little blue booties were knitted for us by a lady that lives here at the property.

Memo board above the dresser is a Christmas present from my mom.
This little football rider is a gift from Brian's cousin, Delana. Does she know her cousin well or what?


I'm proud to say I built this cubby shelf myself. It's great for storage below the clothes in the closet. And the colors match the crib bedding.

Overall, I think the room turned out really cute! Can't wait for our little man to arrive & see how we've prepared for him!

Any Day Now!

I had another ob appt today. I am officially 36 weeks & 6 days pregnant! The doctor told me this morning that I'm 3cm dilated & 50% effaced, so it could happen any time now!
The nursery is pretty much finished. I will try to post some pictures of that tonight!

Happy New Year!

New Year's Eve found me 36 weeks pregnant! Here are a few pictures of my baby bump!















Brian & I had a very low-key New Year's. We went out to dinner, then came home to watch the various New Year's specials on TV. Brian wore a new outfit he got for Christmas. He's very proud of it & feels sure that he will start a new trend across the Lowcountry!

Non-Stress Test

I had a nonstress last week to check the baby's movement, etc. I had noticed decreased fetal movement & wanted to be sure everything okay. They strapped a couple of monitors to my belly & monitored the baby's heartbeats and movements for awhile.

Not very attractive, I'm afraid! I got some video during the non-stress test. The best audio came from a video aimed at the machine. They said that everything looked & sounded great with Baby Boy Lewis.

Also, my gestational diabetes appears to be under control, but I'm craving carbs & chocolate more than ever! I'm meeting with a pediatrician this week & have another ob appt on Thursday. The nursery is pretty much done, except for some finishing touches. Now, I just have to get through Christmas. I'll have some nursery pics to post soon!

2009-The Year of the Stork



The stork will be busy next year! Our bundle of joy is due in late January! As if that wasn't exciting enough, my sis-in-law is expecting twins in May! Congrats Wendy & John! And good luck to you!

Showers Galore!

I am so blessed to have such great friends & family! Overall, I've had 4 baby showers & have received countless wonderful items. My first shower was given by my home church, North Conway Baptist, which I wrote about earlier. Then, Aunt Wendy & Granna gave us a shower over Thanksgiving weekend with the Hardwick & Lewis familes. Then, my work (Modulant) threw us a shower. Then, Brian's work (Hibben Ferry) gave us a shower this past weekend. I'm so thankful to everyone! Below is a link to my shutterfly page where you can see pics from each shower. There are also some pictures of the dresser & changing table assembly!
Enjoy!
