As I look back at pictures of the room in our house which has been known as "the nursery" for the last 4 years, I'm amazed at what all this little room has gone through. Thankfully, I found it pretty easy to find some bedding this time around. It's probably because this is my 3rd boy so I pretty much knew what all was out there. As I enter the third trimester I'm excited to say we are officially done with the nursery for the 3rd (and probably last) time! While it still seems early, I've been very determined to get everything done in a timely manner. When I was pregnant with Reid, I unexpectedly went straight from a doctor appt. to the hospital for a few days of bed rest and never returned home until Reid was born. While we had mostly completed Reid's nursery, there were still a few things that didn't get done. This left my mom and Aaron scrambling on the day of delivery to get some baby clothes washed, bags packed, etc. While I'm not quite ready to wash the newborn clothes, I have unpacked them and they are just waiting for that next step! Here is a look at all 3 of the nurseries!

I don't consider myself crafty, at all, and while this "M" looks simple, I found it quite hard! But I did it and that's all that matters. Just don't look at it too closely! :)
A quick update on the pregnancy....I am 27 weeks now (third trimester!!). The previa situation (first mentioned in
THIS post) was last checked this past week. My placenta has moved a tiny bit but I'm still considered to have a partial previa. We are still hopeful that this will move more, however, my doctor believes that this situation coupled with my 2 prior c-sections (scar tissue, etc.) will make the end of this pregnancy (and the delivery) a little more risky. Because of this, she will most likely take the baby 2-4 weeks early. My actual due date is January 6th, but we will most likely be meeting our Micah mid December. Hopefully my blood pressure will cooperate this time and won't add any extra concerns!
