Baby Joshua's Room Part 1

Last weekend we finally started working on Joshua's room!  Its about time, right?  Only 8 weeks left until the little man is here and I'm now just starting to turn it into high gear.  So far we have the room painted, furniture is assembled, I finished the curtains, and I've purchased shelving, storage baskets, bedding, and some decor.  This weekend I'm hoping to be able to make the bed skirt and then things will really start to look more together.  Here are some pictures of phase one:

Daddy, Quinn, and of course baby, get things started.


I guess Jaime was getting a little hot here?  Quinn is wearing his shirt- reminds me of the movie ET!


Tada!  Paint is done!  It is a very light grey with a touch of light blue.  I love it!

And of course she had to make a house out of the crib box.  This time she called it her garage and had lots of fun with her animals and flashlight in it.
In other news, I am now 32 weeks!  Where has the time gone with this pregnancy???  I felt like I was pregnant FOREVER with Quinn and with this one things have just flown by.  I guess time really does go quicker when you have kids.  Everything seems to be looking great with Joshua, although we did have a teensy hiccup a couple weeks ago when I failed my glucose test.  I had to go back to be re-tested just to make sure I haven't developed gestational diabetes and everything looked fine on my re-test.  Each time my doctor measures my belly he says "textbook" as far as size so I think we will probably have another average sized baby like Quinn- which I am completely fine with.  Quinn is also taking more and more about baby "Doshua", as she calls him, and I'm just so anxious to see how she will interact with him once he's here.

And please-- when will the summer heat let up?!?  I'm so glad I decided to be very pregnant during the hottest summer in Austin's history!  Ack!

I can't believe you are 32 weeks already, time really has flown by! I can't wait to see more pics of the room.
