The Crib! And 27 weeks!

The weeks just keep on flying by, which is not at all how I figured it would be. I know we still have about 13 weeks to go but I feel like this entire process has been going by pretty quickly, and I'm definitely ready for Billy Bubba Bubalo (my dad came up with that one) to be here!

We got the crib delivered about a week ago and were so excited to put it together that we did it that night, and to my surprise, it wasn't that difficult. It took less than 2 hours and I only remember getting frustrated one time. It was remarkable. 

And since we have a fancy new camera, we try and find as many excuses to use it as possible so we figured putting the crib together was one of those instances. 

As you can tell, it was a blast. Along with the crib we've also gotten a rocking chair and a rug for the room in recent days, while Katie continues to look for things that will go with our theme. It's very cool to see the room start to come together. The more things we do, the more real everything seems. I had someone ask me the other day, something along the lines of if I was nervous/scared for the baby to come. I said I wasn't ... yet. I'm more excited than anything, and it's things like seeing the room come together or just a long day of Baby Shopping Sunday (my new name for Sunday) that makes me excited. I mean, the crying, losing sleep, pooping, peeing, spitting up - what's not be excited about? :)

As for Katie, she's starting to plump up nicely, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. I'm feeling all the kicks and movements much better now. Talk about something that never gets old. And it's nice that Billy Bubba (that name just may stick) doesn't stop kicking once I place my hand on Katie's belly like he was before. 

We have another doctor's appointment Wednesday and I'm pretty sure after that we'll be having more frequent visits. I never thought I'd say it but I actually look forward to going to the doctor. I blame Billy Bubba Bubalo.
