Zach's Big Boy Bedroom and THE Belly

We (Jeff) has been working on Zach's new big boy bedroom. As if he doesn't have enough to do, here I sit directing and criticizing his work. Lol. Oh well...he'll get over it. I'm the one baking humans.

We got new furniture and Jeff redid all the baseboards and casings. Our friend Berit, who is also my old painting partner, offered to help paint since I can't do it and I wouldn't allow Jeff to do it. Don't I sound like a dove? It was so nice of her to come over and give up her morning to do this for us and she did a great job!

The bedding I got at Target after looking online for probably 3 hours. Finally, after not finding anything I liked, I ran to Target on a whim and voila!

The room is still a work in progress. I may paint circles in accent colors to match the bedding where the green and blue walls meet. We'll see. The ceiling fan is being installed this weekend and my ottoman from my glider won't be there. Nor will the wooden folding chair. I can't wait to transfer Zach's closet over. Oh, that ugly floor lamp from when I was 16 won't be there, either.


And, of course, the little stinker. He loves his room. He calls the colors on his walls "rainbows" and always talk about his "big boy bed". I had transitioned him into his new bed a while ago, but then Jeff did that work on it and it longer than usual since he was working on it alone, so Zach went back into the crib. So, we are now doing the transition AGAIN, but last night he didn't get up when first put down, nor did he come out until 7:20am! I think he's learned in preschool that you have to stay in your cot? Maybe? Also, I got a new room darkening shade on his window and I think that helps a ton!


Oh gosh! I almost forgot the BELLY! This is today, I am 33 weeks and one day (but who's counting, right?)


As of last week, I am still measuring at 42 weeks. The fact that my tummy is sticking SO far out there, makes the fact that I have absolutely no ass very apparent. I take after my Dad in the dupa department.
And yes, I love that the flash is obscuring my face since I haven't taken a cute picture since January AND that I hadn't showered or brushed my teeth yet.
