Busy busy!

So sorry it's been rather long between posts. The past few weeks have been rather productive though! This makes me very pleased :)

Emma's nursery has been painted & her furniture is in place. Room-wise, David still needs to finish painting & re-hang her closet doors. Pictures, a shelf, & the letters for her name need to be hung & we're good to go. I still need to whip out her dresser drawers & put all her blankets & sheets & such in her drawers, & then we'll be pretty well set. We had our first two showers the past two weekends (three to go, yikes!), so in between I've been washing all sorts of laundry & trying to keep up with thank you notes. This child is so spoiled & I can't even tell you how well-dressed she's going to be! I can't wait for her to get here so we can try all her new stuff out!

Last week, I was called to serve on jury duty. It went fine & I was only there for Monday & half day on Tuesday. For jury duty, you get divided up in panels & wait in the jury room for your panel number to be called, so you can go in & be interviewed for a case by the lawyers. This week, not a single panel was ever called because all the cases opted for other options (go in front of just the judge, a settlement, etc). I guess that's probably a good thing, but it made jury duty incredible boring & made us feel unnecessary. Oh well. I made it & will be off the list for a year, thank goodness!

Our new nephew was born this past Thursday & we got to go meet him on Friday evening. He is such a cutie & so so sweet!

I can't believe there's less than 7 weeks until my due date! Emma will be here before we know it!

cool. your baby will have a cousin very close in age. having family that you are close to who are also close in age to you comes in handy when you're older and can look at each other and go "that's why we're crazy now!"

i'm sorry for such a run-on sentence but the words just tumbled out of my brain as my first reaction to your post.

btw, i found ya via blogmad. and i live in the metro area too.

best wishes and congratulations on your bundle of joy.
