Today started out fantastic. When I woke up this morning, little Isabella was going crazy. She was kicking and moving pretty steadily. Thankfully she finally cooperated and Gary was able to feel some of the strong ones. Usually when she starts kicking hard, Gary will put his hand on my belly and she stops. Today, his face lit up as she gave kicked for a good 10 minutes. Now that Gary's able to feel her, me feeling her kicks is getting better. It's something that we can share and feel closer to our little girl, and closer to each other.
Since it was so hot, we cancelled plans to be outside and instead went to pick up the supplies to make the bench cushions for the nursery. So I made 2 mistakes, both pieces of fabric I got, I didn't get enough of. Frustrated to say the least. So now I have to come up with creative ideas to put it all together. I think I can do it, just extra work. The good news is, so far I'm loving the way it looks. And my parents will be brining the bench itself when they come to visit on Thursday.
A little change of plans for the furniture for the nursery. So first, my larger bookcase is too big, so we went and bought a smaller one. I put it together and it works great in the room. Second change, the dresser. So my childhood dresser looked like it was in great shape and was going to be an easy fix. No such luck. My dad said that the back is completely ruined, and the bottom drawer. I was so sad about this, but at the same time it is working out. We have an extra dresser already so we're going to use that instead. A simple hardware change will make it fit into the nursery just fine. I'm so thankful we had a backup plan and don't have to go out and buy anything new.
