Oh Baby

We've been doing a lot of preparation for this baby as of late. The time seems to be flying, putting me and Austin both into panic mode to be prepared, lest we bring him home and have nothing to offer.

Baby clothes have been accumulating rather quickly since we found out we are having a boy, so first order of business was to get a dresser to put them all in. Here is our $20 D.I. dresser before....


































After a few stabilizing nails and some nautical painting work...




















With plenty of drawers to house his future wardrobe















But where will this well-dressed little man sleep? In the crib that his crazy mama almost managed to build all by herself. I had to claim defeat when it wouldn't fit through the hallway into his room.




















And how will baby get home? In this darling unisex colored, high safety rated car seat!



















How will his mama push this car seat around? When it's attached to this amazingly lightweight stroller.



















What will he have to do around here all day? Read lots of stimulating literature.














When he wakes up in the morning, what will he have to look at? Pictures of Elizabeth City and some of beautiful Washington (coming soon)















We hope that baby Mason approves whole-heartedly of our preparations, and rewards us by sleeping through the night, crying only when he has a good reason, and only going through 2-3 diapers a day.

Not gonna happen??

Well, I guess we will love him anyway.
