Lil' October Pumpkins 2013

We had to move into an apartment temporarily and there isn't space for one. We will only be here until the end of the year and the baby will be in our room anyway. It is still stressing me out that there isn't much I can do.
 
I really wanted to co-sleep, but DF was entirely against it. So instead we're doing a nursery. We're keeping our extra bed in the nursery though so that if Liam is particularly fussy any given night that I can just sleep in the extra bed in the nursery with him. We also want to keep it for just in case we have family visit (Liam can sleep in our room during those visits). We just need to figure out what to do with our small bookshelves and the desk in there. We already moved the big bookshelves out into the living room/dining room/entryway area. We don't want to keep the small bookshelves, but I'm not sure what we're going to do with the books and nick nacks on them in the mean time.
 
my nursery is already set up due to doing most of the work from when I had my first... all i need to do is install space savers shelves in the closet and buy more cube drawers as i use the cube shelves for clothes (they NEVER stay folded and too much of apain in the butt to hang them as well) and i need more drawers for #2.
 
We are actually moving to our new home at the end of this month, Woo hoo!

We have picked out paint for the nursery (Pink and Gray) but nothing else yet

I want to wait until after our baby shower to really buy lots of stuff.

When are you all planning to have your baby showers?
 
We haven't even started on the nursery yet. Really need to get on it but can't even decide on a colour scheme right now.

I'm trying to hold off buying too much until after the baby shower. We've got ours scheduled for the last weekend in August. Was going to be September but so difficult trying to arrange it around everyone's working weekends.
 
my dh complains that my heart gets into the way of him trying to feel the baby kicking cuz all he can feel is the pulse :haha:

Well it's not grant but me who complains about this! I've even asked Him if it's mine or hers. I'm guessing mine.



Goddess what does the dr say about the mumps and you?

We are moving to a new apartment at the end of next month, out of state even. Big move! Its real exciting but we are having to get rid of a good bit to make room for her since we will be gaining a person but loosing a closet and keeping the same amount of rooms. That's stressful!

As far as the showers, we had one 2 weeks ago and it was fantastic! We are having another one in August! That one is gender specific so we are real excited about it!
 
I'm moving into our new home probably by December too. So for the time being the spare room in this rented place will be bubs room. I will be sleeping there with him until he starts sleeping well at night as Dh can't work tired : (( hope he sleeps well cause I'm not happy sleeping away from Dh!

Also no baby shower plans so far here...I guess its friends that arrange so will have to See what happens!

I'm off to the uk, Wales next Wednesday to See my Mum and go baby clothes shopping OMG I cannot wait : )))
 
The only reason I've already had a shower is because we are moving out of state donate a lot of our friends here) do they wanted to throw us one before everyone started moving off.
 
I'm having my gender reveal shower in July at 28 weeks. We wanted to do it early since it's not gender specific. We're only asking for diapers and wipes since we can/already have/want to get just about everything else. We figure if it's early enough and people still want to buy girl things, they can.

My nursery has hit a stand-still for now until we find a small, short white dresser. I guess we should actually start looking instead of just saying we need to find one, haha.
 
I am immune so yay.

I have never made a nursery... baby will co.sleep for awhile and be in my room for 6-8 months, so no rush.
 
I am actually having a diaper party this coming Sunday, decided to have it earlier because I am so busy this summer and I don't need to add another thing to the schedule. Basically, it is men/women BBQ that is more of a casual summer party, but guests bring a bag of diapers with them.
 
Great news goddess :)
I haven't had time to catch up on all i've missed, will do that later.

Junebugs, thank you, but my scan isn't until Monday (10th) LOL.

Hope you're all well :)
 
I don't think I'm having a shower. Colin and I have one friend in this area right now (who is going to be one of Liam's two godfathers) and we don't live very close to any family with the exception of DF's parents and sister. I just figured that anyone who can and wants to help out can be linked to our registry. We had quite a few hand-me-downs and things given to us already anyway.
 
We had our 20 week scan today. Managed to stay team yellow :) Baby was being a right pain in the arse! Lol. Wouldn't cooperate with the sonographer but she finally managed to get all the measurements. All looking perfect!
 
I wont be having a shower or party either since we have no one here. I did have one with my first baby thrown by work but nothing since. I am from the UK and baby showers are not the done thing..you can give gifts after the baby is born and its not big expensive items either.
