Operation Nursery Prep-Part II

It has been a long couple of days!! On Saturday, April and I attend a Women's Christmas Tea at church and after that she and Kieran(her 6 yr old son) came over to help with the nursery paint. I was hoping to salvage the linen technique that my mom had done, but then I just went with EASY. I really liked the orange, but I had to admit Eric was right and orange made the room feel really dark. So we compromised and opted for plan B-Yellow. I actually hadn't been considering yellow, but ended up loving the color. It is bright and cheery, perfect for a nursery.
Today, Eric and I officially went through membership at church and attended a members luncheon. It was nice getting to know others at church. It's funny but no one seems to notice that I'm pregnant. That can't be good! I probably look like I need to lay off the chocolate cake!! And yesterday at the Tea, I actually got passed over for a girl in line behind me who is and looks pregnant; she was asked if she wanted to step ahead in the restroom line. Too funny! I'm ready to pop- any time now!!
Ok, so back on track...After lunch at church, April and Kieran came over again to help finish the touch ups in the nursery. And bless her heart, she completed the green wall in my living room. That was a project I started over Memorial Day weekend and never got back to putting on a second coat. The wall looks soooooooo much better! Thank you April!
Jaxon has already had a lot of help getting his room ready. We love, Nana, Aunt Kelsey, April and Kieran!
Tomorrow, we are going to have to rent a truck from Home Depot; Jax's crib is in and it is too big to fit in the Escalade. As exciting and fun as it is to put together his nursery it sure has become quite the project. I can't wait to have it finished.
