37 Weeks

Our baby is now 37 WEEKS which is considered FULL TERM!!! His lungs are now developed enough to the point that he could survive on his own. My Dr. visit went well. I am not dilated yet but Firth says the baby has dropped and is low. Who knows when this baby will be coming! I got all the baby's clothes washed and put away! I have been trying to get the nursery done as much as possible but still keep it on a low budget. Lets see I ended up picking a bright orange, lime green and brown as the colors.  I got the baby's crib bedding together. I was originally was going to make a crib skirt with ruffles but because this crib has a drawer I decided to weave the fabric through the rails of the crib instead, an idea I got off of Pinterest, I did matching drapes as well.  Now I just have to find a dresser/changing table. I found this pretty nice rocking chair and foot rest at the good old DI for 45 bucks! I'm hoping the same will happen for finding something I can use as a changing table. I also got letters for his name from hobby lobby and wooden animals for the nursery. I took off my wedding ring to paint the letters and well now it has to stay off because I can't get it back on. Sad day. But I figured if I have to force it back on I probably shouldn't be wearing it any way!

Aiden's crib. I finally found the fabric I wanted to use.

I originally wanted to do the fabric on the bottom of the drapes but this worked too! I got the panels from good old Walmart for 14 bucks.

The rocking chair I found at the DI! Pretty sweet I got it for 45 and its priced at 150$ at Walmart!

I love the wooden animals I got from Hobby Lobby! I have been thinking about doing a jungle theme but I wasn't sure how I would pull that off. The frame was originally black which I decided to paint brown and add the extra fabric I had. Each Letter was about $1.50 which I painted brown and the board I found at the DI I painted lime green.
