In about 8 weeks, we will be mommy and daddy to a newborn. Wow. So cool! As a father to be, I've got to say that the constant excitement that I have had since we found out has begun to ramp up... I didn't think that was possible. More than once I have found myself walking by the baby's room and I'll stop in to imagine what it will be like to see our little bundle of joy sleeping. Or crying. Or cooing. A lot of emotion, all good, fills my heart. I've been dreaming about this for years.
Now I can spend some more time in baby's room! It's primed and ready for our little one. The walls are a little bare (until we can decorate with gender specific decor), but we just put the finishing touches on. The rocking chair now has a home, although I liked it in the cluttered downstairs - just not practical. Pictures are below, enjoy!
Melissa looks phenomenal. I am not sure how she does it, but she makes it look easy and keeps a smile on her face. That's signature Melissa. On tap for the week: State Fair (everything on a stick), baby class, doctor appointment (Friday) and starting to pack that "hospital bag". All our love,
- Adam, Melissa, Duncan and Baby
Okay, so this would be what we did last weekend the 15th.
We went home to GB for 2 weddings and to look for a car. The first wedding was on Friday night. Our friend from high school that we graduated with got married on Friday night. We had tons of fun and discovered that Adam and the groom, Chris, have the same exact wedding bands. Kind of funny:)
On Saturday we got up and went to the Toyota dealer and looked at a couple of cars. We drove the old Saturn home and we knew it was time to get a better family car. We test drove a Corolla and a Camry. We settled on the Camry due to the size and knowing that we would have to have this car for a while and grow into it with another child in the future. (Chill out Grandma's, there is only one in the oven for now!) We went back and forth a little. We have been so used to not having car payment, that the thought wasn't the most appealing of having one. However, we did get a brand new 2009 Blue Camry. I LOVE IT!!! It is a great car!!
After the car trip, we went to my cousin Evan's wedding. Ate a little food and talked with some family and old neighbors that I haven't seen in a while. That was fun. Then we headed home and went to bed. Got back to MPLS on Sunday afternoon and then back to the week. Then, we made some more adjustments to the babies room..... Adam will fill you in!!!
Well, thank you all for your votes - with pride I will change the first "blowout" from baby Delveaux. However, because you voted for me - I will strike revenge by posting pictures. Little voice in your head is asking, "Is he serious?" He jokes a lot... must be kidding. Wait and see my friends, wait and see.
Melissa looks phenomenal. I am not sure how she does it, but she makes it look easy and keeps a smile on her face. That's signature Melissa. On tap for the week: State Fair (everything on a stick), baby class, doctor appointment (Friday) and starting to pack that "hospital bag".
