i can finally see a little light at the end of the tunnel that is the baby's room. it is the junk room- the room where everything gets chunked when i have nowhere to put it and it has been that way til today. my mom came over and started helping me clean up and go through boxes of stuff that have not seen the light of day in a long long time.

gee, you ask, are ya waiting til the last minute? um, yeah, i am the queen of procrastination

also i ordered the crib set i finally decided on. only those who have plotted the theme for a baby nursery can understand the agony of getting the crib set just right. so many choices. oy vey! i definitely am not into cartoon characters or the typical stuff they have for nurseries. i knew i wanted red and blue and something gingham- i'm a gingham freak when it comes to baby stuff. nothing too cheesy nothing too plain yada yada.

the set looks like this





















and you can see more detailed pics here if you're into that kind of thing.
i just got the basic set and i'm going to accessorize on my own. the matching border and stuff is a little overkill for me. i did get the pillow to put on the twin bed that's going to be in the room so it coordinates. i will just put a red or blue -you guessed it gingham comforter- on it. curtains to coordinate will be easy to find too.

and i haven't gained any more weight- the doc said if i keep it up i might weigh less or the same as when i got knocked up- hoo-rah!
