With one more week to go. . .

. . .I had to take advantage of a Saturday where we didn't have anything planned. That rarely happens for us. Actually Justin was supposed to go snow caving with the scouts, but that got changed until next weekend. So I put him to work for me. First he built a valance box for the baby's room. Which I covered with an sheet that goes with the crib set. You can't really tell, but it has brown, green and orange polka dots.
Then he built a shelf so my computer doesn't have to sit on the floor any more. It will make it a little easier to plug in the camera cables, plus gives me a little more storage space.
Last but now least he put up this vinyl letting for me, it says 'Today's beautiful moments are tomorrow's beautiful memories." It was his first attempt at this and wasn't really sure he could do it. The alternative however was his nine month pregnant wife climbing up on the ladder on the stairs. I was totally up for this, but Justin didn't agree. I am not sure why given my current gracefulness.;)I think that he did a great job, don't you.


The kids were able to play with their friends and ride bikes. I love weekends like this. It is so nice to have one before this kid gets here.
I was also able to finish a few other small projects, so I feel like the baby's room is as complete as it is going to get. Here are some pictures of the results.
