37 weeks & nursery pics

Jaclyn and Stephanie were here yesterday and helped me get the nursery actually ready to bring a baby home to.  I got to direct traffic while they did the work.  The crib is ready now with a new crib skirt (the one that "matches" the set had embroidery hidden by the wood).  We still need curtains.  Still trying to figure out what kind of curtain rod I want.

The toy organizer holds the growing collection of pink stuffed animals and other toys.  Carson told us last night he thinks she will stand on the dresser and jump to get her toys.  Let's hope he's wrong . . .

We'll probably put the glider in this corner, whenever we get a chance to buy one.  Being on bed rest isn't exactly conducive to shopping for furniture.

Jaclyn also made sure we took some updated pictures of me & the belly.  Here's 37 weeks.

This is us at "full-term."  We'll see how much longer!
