34 wks and 21 months

     I turned 34 weeks on Friday!  And... I finally made a decision about Harper's delivery.  If all goes well, she will be here on November 12.  I'm excited, nervous, a little overwhelmed, and a little unconvinced that I'm even having a baby.  I think Peyton's ready... but I could be wrong.  He lays his head on my belly and rubs Harper for several minutes at a time.  He smiled yesterday and laughed when I told him he was going to have his sister here soon!  I hope some part of him really does understand.  I'm ready to be home for the holidays and to not have to worry about work or school.   I still haven't completely set up Harper's room and I don't have everything that I plan to have for her, but as for her room- here are my ideas so far...

I love this dandelion blanket from etsy

I really want this chandelier from etsy and am still debating if it's worth the cost

I'm pretty set on this crib from Ikea
  We bought a dresser from a great consignment shop in the area.  I guess I'm still looking for a rug, nursery art, curtains, and little things like a lamp.  I really wish I had the time (and money) to get it all together, but I've become comfortable with knowing that I don't have the time right now or energy.  It'll get done- eventually.  If I hadn't had Peyton 5 weeks early, I'd think I have plenty of time, but having a child early changes your perspective some. 

     On another note, I'm excited for Halloween (Peyton is going to be Batman this year- he's never seen Batman, but he looks really cute in his costume).  I'm looking forward to visiting the farm and pumpkin patch- and I'll post pictures when we do.  Peyton is exactly 21 months old today and he is just becoming so smart and so fun.  He's still my little boy and probably will be forever.
