Getting the baby's room ready. Yesterday I was bored out of my mind once I got done running around doing what needed to be done, so I decided to start the process of changing the office into the nursery. Who knew that when I thought of this bright idea of doing it by myself, it was going to take so much time and tricky maneuvering to get everything where it needed to be.
I started in the bedroom. There was no way I was going to be able to push the furniture around, so I had to take everything out of the drawers to make the dressers lighter. I then tried to push them but, they were getting caught on the carpet. So, I then got the creative idea to flip the furniture over onto its side so it would be smoother to push on the carpet. After a couple hours of emptying drawers, flipping furniture so I can push them, and then putting everything back in the drawers. I finally had the bedroom furniture in place.
Then I had this big blank wall, where the desk would eventually be going. The idea of moving another piece of furniture was not something I wanted to think about, but the idea of leaving the room unfinished bothered me more. So round two started and I took everything off and out of the desk. Nathan has so much stuff hooked up to the computer that I had no idea how I was going to hook it all back up correctly, but I decided to take it one step at a time. I pushed the desk into the bedroom and then began the process of bringing all the electronics into the bedroom so I can hook them up, or at least try to hook them up. To my surprise I hooked everything up correctly. I guess being married to Nathan has taught me a few things!!
Once I set up the bedroom, I then cleaned up everything in what used to be the office. All the baby stuff that we have to this point is now in the future nursery!! I can't wait until we have the baby furniture, so it can really start to come together. The idea of walking into that room and knowing it is our child's bedroom and no longer an office is very exciting. Ever since Nathan and I have been married we have lived in a place that has two bedrooms. One we would use as an office and the other obviously our bedroom. But, now that room that used to be an office is no longer an office but an actual bedroom!!
I am so excited for this baby! So excited to become a mom, so excited to read the baby books we have been collecting for their own library, and so excited to just enjoy the idea of having a family with the greatest man I know!!
What makes the story so important to me is that no matter what I will always find a way. Whether it be moving furniture by myself or whatever comes up in the future. Before I was pregnant I would of just pushed the furniture where I wanted it and called it a day, now being over six months pregnant I had to take extra caution to make sure the baby was safe and that I was safe. I hope the baby appreciates all the hard work and love that is being put into putting their bedroom together!!!
