The count down continues. Here lately, I've been a little more anxious; time is winding down and I feel like I have so much to do.
As you have read, Brayden's nursery theme is "Mommy and Daddy love you tons/ a ton"🐘<elephants>
The colors are navy blue, yellow, and grey. I have been pinning to my heart's content different ideas for his room. I found some pretty great stuff too. In a previous post, I mentioned I was painting letters for his nursery. I still haven't attached the string to hang them.... yea idk what I'm waiting for either. Oh yea wait. Energy. I lack it.
I decided not to reupholster the chair, after looking at Youtube, I figured this isn't a project I could do while in my third trimester, so instead, the plan is to use a slip cover.
Then I realized it doesn't fit in the nursery with the crib/changing table, TV, and twin bed. I didn't want to remove the bed, because that's for his grandmothers when they visit. It's also, for Daddy, so he and Brayden can have "Father/Son" time watching Sports Center and NBA TV while Mommy takes a break. So the nursery chair, will go in the master bedroom, so I can rock him/nurse him and watch Big Bang Theory. Problem solved.
The decor for his room will be yellow elephant statues (courtesy of the awesome baby shower given by his aunties and uncle) and Grey elephants decals which we picked from Buy Buy Baby. Brayden's crib has a navy blue and Grey layette with yellow accents. One of Brian's fave pics from the maternity shoot will also hang in his room.
It's still a work in progress but it's coming along nicely. My mom aunt visited this weekend to help with organizing everything. I am so glad they did. All of his clothes and bedding has been washed and put away, organized by size of course. I feel a lot better about the room too. Mom and aunty put up all the elephant and star decals. We can actually see the crib. Lol We have been so blessed with gifts for Brayden. He is so loved.
We also had our hospital/maternity ward tour this afternoon. It went well with the exception that I was told the wrong time and had to wait an additional 30 min. Smh. Overall, I am pleased with the facility and their practices (encourage skin to skin contact and nursing).
We will finalize the Birth Plan next weekend and get our "whooping cough" shots this week. We will also pack our hospital bags this weekend.
Brayden is measuring a little big, so the doc doesn't think we will see his intended due date of 27 June. At 31 weeks, we are measuring 33. I think Baby Beez will have his Daddy's height!!
As always I will keep you posted. Stay tuned for the next bumpdate. Exploring Tiger stripes and Pregnancy Swag aka the Waddle.
