Boston - Today is THE day!! We can't wait!! Havana and I have the countdown on around here and keep texting each other with updates! You must have a great HomeGoods if the headquarters are right there. Ours is a bit hit or miss but you never know. And, I got a cute pair of Tahari peep toe black patent leather pumps for me at TJ Maxx just last week. My shoes haven't been fitting right lately.
Nathalie - I hope your SIL has some luck with the paintings. I think there was another set here in the Atlanta store so they might be all over. I can't wait to here more about the tree paintings. I still think it's an adorable idea and lots of good stimulation for the baby to look at. MM - I'm guessing you wound up with the Carter bumper, the Blake bedskirt, and which sheet? They had so many good choices. The tent is great and will match the bedding perfect! I can't believe you are headed to Hawaii in a week. We are all so jealous! We're going to go through shopping withdrawals without you around  Cat - I really hadn't been feeling much at all as far as movements from the baby. I felt a few flutters a few weeks back but that was it. Then, last night I felt a kick and this morning I went to shift from one side to the other while sleeping and I felt the baby move big time. It was very cool. I wouldn't worry too much either although I do love having the monitor. I still do an almost daily check on little Aiden and we have our peep talk about him staying in there! Maybebaby - My stomach looks different everyday too. Today is huge... yesterday not so much. It's got to be a fluids things with the summertime heat. Havana - My work just keeps getting busier. I can't believe it. Maybe we'll both sell a ton of listings this fall and be able to splurge a little! WannaBAmom42long / Brownen - The hat pattern I just got was actually from MaggieMay. I already gave it to my Mom. When I see her later in the week, I'll try to make a copy and scan it in to PM you. We've made big progress today on the nursery. DH is off real work and is hard at work on the house. My brother came over earlier and helped to move all the furniture around. The nursery is now empty and DH is primering away! I think I've picked my color too. So, once the walls are primered I'll go buy a sample of the color and check it out. We're going with a blue and I'm still trying to talk DH into one horizontal green stripe. Goodbye to the black walls... hello baby room!

I figure since 36 weeks is the longest they'll let me go until my c-section... I'm past the halfway marker!! Still haven't made it to registering yet. Next on the list after the furniture gets officially ordered this week. I think the babymoon is out of the question for now. Unless, I can find a hawaiin resort within 15 minutes of my hospital
We may be doing our babymoon at the Ritz here in Atlanta!

Hi Girls...
Just checking to see if we've heard from Miss Boston yet! Peachy -- You brought a smile to my face thinking about you giving little Aiden a pep talk everyday. Yes, I'm sentimental just like you! I did the Carter fabric on one side of the bumper and the Cabana Stripe on the other and went with the "pillow" style instead of the box style. The piping is white matelasse and so is the bedskirt which is a drop skirt with a box pleat in the center and a 6 inch border in the Cabana Stripe along the bottom. The sheet is the large dot in Sprout (like the Blake) and the ties are lime small dot. I got the "quote" today and decided to splurge on it! I'm attaching the photo of the wooden animals. Havana - We're staying at the Princeville Resort. The last time we were on Kauai, we drove all around the island hanging out at a different beach every day but this time we're just going to lounge at the resort and be pampered. I'll wish you were there!!! My u/s went well today ....we got pictures of little Reid's "dude" it is adorable! He was so cute, hanging out with his arms behind his head and when the tech nudged him started waving at us and opening and closing his mouth. I was melting. Love him so much already! The one bad piece of news is that my bloodpressure has been really high since I got pregnant (usually perfect bp) so my OB says I'm at high risk for pre-eclampsia and I need to watch my salt intake and push fluids. I found some great sites...will post them to you ladies tonight!

MM - The bedding will be perfect! I love the matelasse. PBK has it too and I reallt thought about that for a while. They even have their upholstered rocker with a matelasse slipcover as an option and it was tempting. The large dot's will be really cute too. I was tempted to order some different patterns for extra sheets to mix and match too. The animals are amazing!! I can't wait to see them on the walls. I think you're doing wainscotting on the bottom half. What color are you painting the top half? I am so glad your vacation isn't until next week. I just saw photos of that evil hurricane next to the Big Island. But, the good news is there is always lots of sunshine after a hurricane! Tell Reid to behave too and stop causing your blood to swish around too much
Maybebaby - Are you going to stay in Canada for your babymoon? There are great resorts up there! Maybe only a few more hours till we hear from Boston.... My DH is done with one coat of primer! The KilZ has a strong fume and he won't let me near the room other than a quick glimpse.

Havana - did you get another condo??? We've got to find you some houses to list even though I know you hate open houses. Whatever happened with the virtual tour debate?
Maybebaby - Can't wait to hear your babymoon ideas. I have to live vicariously through all these vacations! DH is on the second coat of primer. If he doesn't keel over from the fumes, we'll be halfway there by the end of the day! I see Boston logged on....
