Nesting

Even though we are nearly 22 weeks in, we really haven't had the money or the energy to do very much to get ready for this little kiddo.  I've been sick so much it's been hard to do anything but rest.

However, we are more than half way through this pregnancy so we decided that it was time to buckle down and do some proper nesting this weekend.  I wasn't feeling good yesterday, so we didn't get started until today.  But boy, did we make ourselves proud getting the house clean and the nursery cleaned out!

We aren't nearly done yet getting Sonora's room set up, nor does she have a lot to go in it.  But that is okay with us.  We are going to have her in a bassinet by our bed for the first few months anyway, so she doesn't need a lot of stuff right away.  Still, it feels really great to have some of the grunt work done, or at least getting done, before I am too big to be very much help.

The only thing really worth showing right now is Nora's little closet, which looks so dang cute with her stuff in it!  Most of her toys are hand-me-downs from me.  Some were even in my crib when I was a baby!

I am really looking forward to building her little wardrobe.  My sister's Tati and Rachel bought her a few really cute things recently, and today we used some Kohl's Cash to get her a few more things.  I made her some temporary hangers until she has some real ones.  :)

It was kind of a hard week, but having her closet ready and a lot of our big cleaning chores out of the way really helped to make me feel better.  Hopefully everything will go smoothly from here on out.   I sure am looking forward to meeting our little wiggle butt in about 18 weeks!!!
