The Baby’s Room

We’re very close now. Jordan is due at the end of next week, but she’s officially full term, so the baby could come any time. A review of the facts as we know them:

1. We don’t know the sex.
2. We do know the baby seems very healthy in all regards, and for now it appears we’re in for a relatively normal birth.
3. Jordan is ready to get this kid on the outside.

To provide some incentive for the baby to get here sooner, we have tried to communicate to him or her that he / she has a very nice room all ready. We’ve only recently finished it all up (thanks to generous amounts of help from the grandparents). We think it looks fantastic.

Here are some pics:

The color is a soft yellow; I picked it out. Booyah.

The wall hangings and crib bedding are all from a set we found at Babies R Us.

The furniture is also from Babies R Us. The crib is one of those convertible lifetime beds.

Jordan was surprised she liked the white furniture so much, but it turned out pretty well.

Jordan and her dad found these great shelves at the container store.

That A-B-C thingy is another part of the bedding theme. It’s actually a rug.

It looks better on the wall. Where it can’t trip us up in the middle of the night.

The bed is the only piece of furniture left over from what was my office.

It actually came with the house and was in this room when we moved in.

Yes, Yoda was on our Target registry. Three people purchased us three Yodas.

This is my grandmother’s rocking chair. It should come in pretty handy.

Pillow came from Pottery Barn. Because Pottery Barn is way into The Force.

Cute, huh?

This magazine rack had also been installed by the home’s previous owners.

Works great for baby books, too.

So, that’s the whole tour.

Hopefully, the next post you see will introduce you to a brand new Preddy. I will post the news here as soon as I can.

Until then, we appreciate all your well wishes and prayers.
