The nursery

Before I ended up having to move to Portland, Doug and I had started making some headway on the nursery. Here are some pictures of it as it progressed from paint, to the chair rail. I had to move to Portland before I had a chance to see the finished product and the furniture assembled, but that will be a wonderful surprise to share with the girls when we get home in a few months.

The last time I saw the room

Doug has been working hard at home getting the room ready and house prepared for our baby girls to arrive. I appreciate all of his hard work and effort in giving them a room just as special as they are. I can't wait to see it and post the final results!

Here is a preggo pic for you- 29 weeks!


Bed rest has been good to me. The cervix has gotten better, actually, and the girls are doing great. Tomorrow is 30 weeks, and we are so grateful all has been going so smoothly. My parents are taking great care of me, and the time in bed has been both boring and wonderful, and I manage to stay pretty entertained. If things keep at this rate, we should have no trouble making it to 36 weeks, which would be terrific!

Aww, that's going to be such a cute room! You look really good, Sarah! I thought you'd be way bigger considering you're having two babies and not just one. You look great! I'm glad bed rest is suiting you well so far.

Pink and brown? That is just not fair. SO cute! What a beautiful little girl room. I can't wait to see it finished. How's the bedrest going? Staying sane? Hang in there!
