Most things have been quiet here in Honea land.
We've been slowly preparing for our baby girl. And when I say slowly, I mean at a snails pace! I know I still have time, but the anxious mama in me is starting to get antsy. Her bedroom is cleaned out, I just need Jeff to move all the heavy stuff and relocate the computer then we can start painting. I was hoping to have everything done by the this time next month, but I don't know if that's going to happen since I've been so indecisive on the theme. I finally picked out her bedding. I had the hardest time finding something I liked. I didn't want something too girly, but I didn't want anything gender neutral either. So I settled on a bedding set from Target that doesn't have too much pink all over it, and just enough polka dots to suit me.
My favorite part of the day has been after dinner, while Jeff's doing the dishes. I get in the bath and wait. After a few minutes baby girl starts wiggling and jumping around. It's precious to watch and makes me feel like I'm starting to get to know her.
So far, she seems to have stubborn streak, just like both of her parents. After much prodding and poking, and at least 10 tries, she finally let her Grandma Cannon feel her kick. That's been the way it goes with most people. As soon as she feels someone's hand on my belly, she stops all movement! Then I just look like the crazy pregnant lady who thinks her baby is kicking!
Oh and the shopping! I've refrained from purchasing anything until now. We have our registry almost complete at Target, but I still wanted to get some things that were just from us. I've only bought her baby book and home coming outfit, but that's only because we're leaving for Maui on Saturday and I knew I had to watch my spending.
Here are some pictures. As usual, I can't get them to load at the right size, so click on them if you have to.
Here I am at 25 weeks.
And here is little girl's homecoming outfit.

I bet it has been...
Don't worry, the room will be ready by this time next month. Paint and all. :)
I hate the waiting and the room sitting there not being worked on. We waited what felt like forever and then like that it was all done. I knew it all would, but it is just a mama thing to be antsy and wish it were done sooner rather than later.
I love her coming home outfit! So precious and sweet. I'll have to check out your registry. Isn't it all so much fun?
You guys have fun on your vacation! Can't wait to see pictures!
