Waking up to a Crib

This morning Nathan and I woke up to a cute, tiny little crib... beside our bed... for the baby that will be in it soon... My mom came yesterday and helped me clean and do random odds and ends for the baby, make some returns, and put up this crib. She also got to see the bedding all put together in the crib for the first time! It's all washed and ready - even though Liam will be sleeping nice and comfy right here for a little while :)

We even have the little diaper caddy all stocked and ready for our little guy... so weird!

Nathan and I knew this day was coming. The day we would officially have a crib in our bedroom. After both agreeing that it would be so weird - in a good way - but nonetheless weird - to have a crib right beside us, the day finally arrived. We are so excited, and getting there as far as the readiness factor. Towels, washcloths, blankets washed. Diapers and wipes ready for that cute little bottom. Diaper caddy for our bedroom stocked. Diaper caddy to keep in the living room stocked. Hospital bag partially packed (finishing that today). All we have to do is pick out one preemie outfit just in case he's not 10 lbs (haha, gosh I hope not!) and then I can wash all the clothes and bibs. After that one load, all his stuff will be nice and clean with that great "Dreft" baby smell :)

Now we're down to crunch time - finishing up some final random things and waiting for our sweet Liam!
