Slowly but Surely-20 weeks!

That's right folks, I'm half way to the promise land. My Picc line is officially gone and I'm back to taking my medication in pill form, instead of the glorious intravenous meds that have sustained me thus far. With me being more mobile and finally finding out the sex of the baby the Diaab-Morton clan have finally began preparing our house for the new edition.

This weekend Damon and I went to Lowe's, bought the paint, and came home and painted. Well, he painted while I slept on the couch.





We decided on 3 solid pink walls and one with pink and white stripes. It turned out better than I expected.

On Sunday, after weeks of online surfing, I finally found an old rocking chair for under $50! Using Craigslist, I found this practically brand new rocking chair for only $25. I just picked it up this afternoon and it's perfect...Well almost perfect. It's light blue and I'm not sure anyone feels like repainting it. I think I may just incorporate some blue into the crib bedding.



And lastly, we have my little darlings, DJ and Cameron. Here's what they do with a camera when your back is turned. DJ is a future photographer and Cam...a rock star?

Doesn't it feel great to prepare? People just do not understand how important it is for us anal folks! Those two darlings are certainly something. They will make great entertainment for the new baby:)

Ah Pink! How does it feel to buy pink items, and to go the girls section of the store?

It feels crazy! Sometimes I jsut go in the room and stare. I can't believe I have a pink room in my hosue. I still can't believe I'm having a girl.
