9 weeks and counting!!

Only nine weeks left!! Hopefully, the baby will have somewhere to sleep when he gets here. The office that is getting transplanted to the basement to make room for baby brother (yes, that is still the child's name) is still in the works, but it is getting closer. I really don't think it is possible to do a home improvement project without "umpteen" trips to the hardware store. Forget getting everything at once!!! There is always a tool that you need, or a fixture that doesn't fit quite right. But it's coming. We finished painting and Hikari and my dad finished the electrical (with the exception of a glitch with the track lighting). This week the job is to install the laminate floor, and then we are getting the cabinets and countertop for the built-in desk next week, and then it's furniture moving. If all goes as planned, which it never does, we will be able to start in on the babies room a few weeks before my due date!! Won't that be fun! Oh well, at least we have a roof over our head, and food in the fridge, and smiles on our faces, right? I do know what we are doing for the baby's room, though. I bought the paint a few weekends ago and I can't wait to get started!
This is the cute bedding set that I found. The walls are going to be the same green as the trim on top with a white chair rail, and then a really light green on the bottom. I'll have to post pictures once it's all put together. This picture really doesn't do it justice. The colors are a lot brighter and it is so cute!!! Anyway, like I said, hopefully this kid will have someplace to sleep come D-day!!
