Pictures of the Baby's Room

We "decorated" the baby's room, so I thought I'd post some pictures. The decorating was really more just putting up stuff that I've made or received from family members. I made the 2 quilts in the pictures, along with the elephant stuffed animals and the baby booties.

Here's a picture of (one) of the elephants I've sewn and a pair of baby booties I've sewn:

Room again:
Here's a picture of the crib with one of the quilts I've sewn. (I've made about 5 or 6 quilts over the last few months! Not all for me, of course!) I promise I'm not bragging, but I free-motion quilted the quilts by hand, so I was able to put all kinds of cute little designs in to the quilts. It was too hard to get a picture of the quilting, but I still think it's cute!

No News is Good News

I wish I could say differently, but there isn't really anything interesting to report on (again!)

I am still pregnant, and although I'll be 7 months pregnant on Sunday, I hardly look it. I really am pretty small--I look maybe 4 or 5 months pregnant (which causes EVERYBODY to ask me if everything is going ok), but everything is measuring just right for the baby, so I must just carry it all inside (my ribs and hips can attest to that!).

We are putting the Christmas tree up (finally) after swim practice tonight. I am excited to have all the Christmas decorations up around the house! I helped my brother put Christmas lights up at my Grandma's house on Sunday, and we had a lot of fun together. It's so fun to be getting in to the Christmas spirit!

And, as far as items of interest, that's about the most interesting thing that's happened lately (not that we don't do anything all day--we are, in fact, very busy. It's just nothing that anyone would want to hear about!)
