[Nikkilewis14]

Just thought id share some photos of some of the nursery so far... hubby purchased a new camera to have when baby is born (a nikon d 3200!! hes been saving for a while now for it so he couldnt wait to use to today when he got home from work..)... anyway...

Here is some of the nursery (not completely finished, we still have a white ladder bookshelf to put up, and some more wall decorations..it looks kind of empty in there, but there is what we have so far!

Ohhh and I added a picture of our little girl Mocha and our christmas tree with some gifts I decided to wrap the other day lol...


My sweet little girl

Hi Betheney!! :wave:

Ditty your cats look so comfy!

You ladies are making me soooo nervous! I feel like I have nothing ready. I need at least 1 more pack of diapers, and just about everything for myself. I just feel like everything is at such a standstill right now *sigh*.

 

[brieri1]

Your nursery is so cute and I love your Christmas tree! My nursery isn't quite done yet, but we set up the co-sleeper yesterday and it scared me a little, like, things are getting very real. My baby girl is going to sleep in that someday soon. I'm nervously excited.

 

[ARuppe716]

Now that ditty has been outed for her profession... What does everyone else do? I know some of us have mentioned from time to time but thought it would be fun to see the variety on our board!
After 10 years of teaching dance I am now the administrative assistant for the divisional office of a popular grocery store company here on the east coast. Who else wants to share?

 

[Betheney]

Hiiiiii AJ! Don't feel nervous about not being ready. I actually have a newborn and don't have a single newborn nappy at home. Lol. I'll probably end up grabbing some on the way home from hospital when he's discharged. Lol (still no idea when that is tho)

Nikki your nursery is GORGEOUS!!

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Thanks everyone!

I still dont feel prepared either!


Ive mentioned quite a few times, but im an adjunct professor..i teach anatomy, nutrition courses, criminal justice courses etc...i love it!

 

[Betheney]

Thanks Kaiecee and dittybird!! I'm trying to check into jellybeans more often.

Remi is doing incredibly well. At 1 week old we graduated from the isolated crib (humidity crib) to an open cot. His weights have been 1.97 at birth 1.85 at 48 hours 1.83 at 4 days but then we jumped 100grams at 6 days up to 1.93 then jumped another 100grams at 8 days up time 2.03kgs so we're well above birth weight already. We're also above the 1.95kg minimum to leave hospital, he still has to stay to establish feeding and such but it's nice that's it's one less thing to focus on to get out of here.

 

[AJThomas]

Awesome news Betheney, can't wait to hear that our first jellybean is finally home.

 

[Nikkilewis14]

So glad hes doing great so adorable!

 

[duckytwins]

Waddling! Who mentioned waddling?! LOL I've been wadding for WEEKS now!

Nikki, lovely tree and adorable nursery (cute furbaby too!)

Betheney, nice to see you! Glad to hear you're both doing well! Hope the LO can go home soon!

Ditty, cute kitties! Mine only gets on the glider, so I've taken to closing my bedroom door when I'm not around to give her "the look." She's been sniffing around the bassinet and cradle though, but hasn't ventured inside (lucky thing). She does get into one of the shelves in the changing table though! She thinks it's her cat condo!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Betheney - glad to hear that Remi is doing well, I'm sure it won't be long before he is home with you. How is Eva with him now? Bet she is an adorable big sister

Nikki - love your nursery!

Job wise I'm head of marketing for a construction trade federation! Leave two weeks today and cannot wait for some feet up time although not sure that will actually happen! I don't even think my boss actually realises I am leaving soon and was like you're taking your Blackberry and laptop right? I was like wrong!

 

[Lilahbear]

Betheney - glad to hear remi is doing so well!

Ditty - our cats are the same, obsessed with anything baby although we do try to keep the nursery door closed as much as possible or they will cover everything in hair. I have a super cute picture of one of our cats in the pram. stupid phone won't let me upload it.

I am an archivist. I work in our searchroom helping academics, researchers and general members of the public find and access the historical records they need for their research or family tree.

Nikki - cute nursery!

 

[Lillian33]

Awesome Betheney, so glad Remi is making such good progress

Wow Nikki, gorgeous nursery-love the colour scheme!!

Such cute fur babies you ladies have, I'm jealous too, no pets for us at the moment!

Ducky, sorry you're still feeling rotten, I bet those shirts for the boys cheered you up a little

Gorgeous bump LaMere, looking good!

I'm an adviser assistant at a broking firm! My lovely colleague threw me a small baby shower tonight after wk, was very sweet of her as I don't have loads of friends here but got some gorgeous stuff for my boy!

Hmm may need to sell my Icandy and buy a new pushchair, got it out today cos ds didnt want to walk the school run and its so heavy and awkward I love it but realistically I think Im gonna need a lighter pushchair.

Im a credit controller for one of the UK's largest galvanizing companies, not the most exciting job but hey

 

[jrowenj]

Nikki - I love the nursery. The colors are just gprgeous. Ella is gonna love it! Little mocha is super cute too

Betheny glad to hear such good news abot remi. Hope he copmes home soon

I'm a part time accountant and its super bpring. I can't wait to be a SAHM!

 

[CharlieO]

Yeahhh! Our travel system is ready to pick up so DH is getting it this afternoon after his shift! We've gone the Uppababy Vista, and Maxicosi pebble car seat, what have you all chosen?

 

[Little J]

Iv got the waddle down now too. Its funny watching the top of my big belly go back and forth.

I keep wishing i was further than 31 weeks.... I want to see my little man!

 

[Betheney]

Sonia - Eva has a sudden love for Remi. The day she met him she refused to touch him and if you put him near her she would lean as far away as possible. But now she all of a sudden just loves him, if you ask if she wants a cuddle she holds out her arms wanting to hold him. Then if you hold him out to her she'll come over and give him a cuddle and a kiss without any encouragement from us.

Eva still kisses my belly and says baby i have to explain "no baby, Remi is baby and baby Remi is in hospital" she just looks at me really confused and then walks off. lol

 

[jrowenj]

Charie- so exciting!!!

Little J - I hear ya! I can't wait either!!!!

I started setting up the nursery last night. Only got the crib and rocking chair put together. HOping to finish this weekend!

So... I have my brother's wedding tomorrow and I am already exhausted just thinking about it. I have the rehearsal and rehearsale dinner tonight a little over an hour away. Then, I have to get up at 7am tomorrow and head an hour and 15 minutes to the Bride's house to get ready and do pictures all day. Then we are all "hanging out" at the hall before the ceremony which starts at 7pm and the wedding isn't over til midnight. So, basically I have a 17+ hour day ahead of me. I look like a damn whale in the bridesmaid dress too... Pray for my sanity and my poor, swollen feet!!!!
