88 Days...but who's counting?

Hooray! Down to the double digits. It seems like things are starting to fall into place.

The nursery base coat is done! The pencil sketch for the mural is done! (Note that after helping draw the vertical lines for the grid, Dave suggested I take a nap and rest while he finished.)

Crib and changing table are ordered and waiting for pick-up. Shower plans are coming along.

28 week U/S is on Monday along with the glucose screen that I am fully prepared to fail.

Only 2 more day care centers to scope out.

Things of note as we finish up the 2nd Tri...

1. The triage nurses at OB's have to be the most patient people on the Earth.

2. Baby is moving a lot and seems to like to rest its foot in my lung.

3. Dave and I are working on names. Girls name...easy and done...Boys name...not so much. Each of us made a list of 20 names that we were then going to compare. Alas not a single overlap! So now its just a random "how about ...", followed by "ooo, I kinda like that" or "eeewwww no way." May have to get a book.

4. Notable name rejections: Orion Bryan (seriously??!), Thor (not even acknowledging that one), and Phineas (sure to be born with a pocket protector).

5. The generally cranky phase seems to have passed, back to the ole' anxiety phase.

That's all for now. Hope everyone had a great summer! Yay fall! My favorite season.
