24 Weeks - It Began With a Chair

Weeeeeeeeeee! 24 Weeks!



Today we bought (well technically I bought it last weekend, but we picked it up today) our first purchase for the nursery, a glider with ottoman!


We had fun putting it together (Jared did most of the work).

I was actually glad that some assembly was required because when the crib and dresser that we ordered arrive, we paid the store to assemble them here. I don't know why but I always thought it was sort of. . .hm. . .a right of passage? to assemble baby furniture. So we had that experience with the glider. I'm happy to say that there were no fights, extra pieces, or broken parts.

(floor wires will be removed before the baby comes :0)

I am definitely feeling the baby move a lot now. He's even kicking enough for Jared to feel it. There was one point last week we were cuddling on the couch and and all of a sudden Bean started kicking a ton (he did about 10-15 kicks in a row) and Jared felt every single one of them. It brought tears to my eyes it was such an amazing feeling and moment. I can't wait for more.

In non baby news:
This weekend was super fun for Jared and I. Lucas, Jared's best friend from high school, and Mary his fiance came up from Lexington Kentucky and spent the weekend with us. It was so wonderful spending time with them, but it makes me sad that they live so far away. Lucas and Mary are actually getting married on my due date (1/1/11), so needless to say we will not be able to attend the wedding, but we got to talk about it all weekend and learn all their fun surprises that they have planned for the event.
