Where did July go??

I’m having trouble believing its almost the end of the month. Show time, as in the Nugget’s due date is coming up fast. We’ve had 3 appointments in the last 3 weeks and each time there has not been significant change. At the last one, my membrane is 50% thinned out so at least that is something but there is barely 1 cm of dilation.

This weekend Mike got to tighten the faucet. It was an easy task but getting to the faucet from underneath was a whole other story!

My first year ended for me on July 15th. The rest of my classmates are at clinicals. I spent the first week at home doing pretty much nothing. Ultimate sedentary lifestyle. I honestly can’t tell you if I did anything productive. However, Monday I woke up and decided enough being bored. I cleaned up the house a little bit. Which justified a long nap.

Tuesday we had our 38 week appointment; the results described above.

Today, I finally cleared off my desk and pulled out the sewing machine. And got busy. I realized we never actually received or bought crib sheets. Oops. So I figured I better get on that….

 

The laptop needs to be accessible. Multi-tasking at its best. Plus I didn’t want to print off some instructions.

 

I would like to keep the shelf in front of the window empty but right now that isn’t happening.

Fitted crib sheet #2 done. I used the rest of the elastic for a cat toy…so crib sheet #3 will have to wait.

Also, I took a stab at diaper cloth burp cloths:

1 cloth diaper
some tinkerbell fabric
and purple ribbons

Quite a few pins….

 

Got me these. The ribbons were a little bit of a problem and I had to patiently sew very slowly.

I love my husband. As many of you know his standard outfit is sports shorts and a white t-shirt. Almost all our newborn onesies are white. I’m not quite sure how that happened. So i took charge!

Nothing like some ruffles!

Ta-Da! I think its a little comical that I put ruffles on my baby’s onesies since I once threw a fit when my parents came home with a swim suit with ruffles on it. My grandmother painstakingly removed them. haha.

Well the cloth diapers came in a pack of 12 so theres 10 more to do something with. I”ll leave that more tomorrow!

Stay Tuned. :)
