We're in the home stretch people!!! Only 3 weeks to go (hopefully)! This last month has been all about preparing for Tate's arrival, including a wonderful baby shower on Christmas Day with my in-laws, and another one with my immediate family and friends the day after Christmas! This baby is so loved, we are so thankful for everyone and everything they've done for us! Here are some pics from the day after Christmas shower, which Adriane threw at her house with Mom and Grandma's help. It was so neat to see good friends from high school and college and some of the "Moms" I grew up with:




Here are a couple pics from today, at 37 weeks, 2 days:
And lastly, some photos of Tate's completed nursery. In this first one you can see the awesome bird mobile that Auntie Bec made for Tate; he is going to love it!
His crib is all ready for him!
Our little reading corner:
His closet is full of special homemade blankets and quilts; what a lucky boy! We will need them in this winter wonderland! Still about a foot and a 1/2 of snow on the ground...
Tate's Great-Grandpa Van made this beautiful table for his nursery, which, unfortunately, is covered up with diapers & baby supplies in this picture:
Well, hopefully in a few weeks I will post the most exciting blog yet! Here's hoping to a timely and prompt arrival on Tate's part! Hope you all are surviving the winter weather, or thanking your lucky stars if you live in a warm climate ;) Take care and Happy Martin Luther King, Jr., Day!
